London Fashion Week AW 2013....Ella

Ella Catliff from La Petite Anglais blog, before Antipodium, London, February 2013.

It's hot, really hot. But if you work in an air-conditioned office (lucky you!) short sleeves or sleeveless tops or dresses can leave you with goose bumps by mid morning. Layering, with a jacket or cardigan, which you can whip off as soon as you head back outside into the steamy conditions, is the key to surviving the summer weather!

Recreate Ella's look (kind of):

Carven double-breasted jacquard jacket

Carven colorblock sweater

Carven A-line skirt, Madewell Solid ridge skirt, or Rebecca Taylor eyelet skirt

Carven slouchy tote

Topshop Sacha wooden platform courts
