California Dreamy: ELLE’s August Shopping Guide

“Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links.”

There’s no better time to get your groove on than the dog days of summer, when temperatures are high but the allure of fall layers start calling and it’s ever so tempting to get your favorite autumnal pieces back in the mix. Flawlessly executed by the likes of Chloé, Chanel, and Giambattista Valli for the fall/winter 2024 season, you too can get that effortless Laurel Canyon look with layers of lace, delicately embroidered details, over-the-knee boots, and oversize sunglasses. Airy floral dresses and vintage-inspired blouses are cool in the heat, while dainty daisy jewelry and a beaded bag up the romance factor. Pair it all with tough leather accessories and a boot that will carry you well into fall, and you’ll be perfectly poised for the dreamy golden-hour moments of summer’s end. Shop our top picks below and in the August 2024 issue of ELLE.
