Beverly Hills That’s Where I Want To Be
Vintage Blazer, Zara Top, Levi Cut-offs, Foley + Corrina Bag, Hue Tights, Fendi Platforms
The vibe in Beverly Hills is so formal, with women and their coordinated accessories, tiny dogs and stiff up-dos, that I can’t help but add a bit of grunge to Rodeo Drive. I rarely wear shorts, but when it comes to vintage Levi’s, I fully embrace their rugged vibe that never goes out of style. Plus, when worn with a boxy blazer and thick tights, they’re instantly fall-appropriate.

Love the rolled sleeve blazer!
I just love how the gold necklaces tie i all together. Make it less grunge looking.
great look!
<3
don’t you get tired of pictures of yourself? i do
goodness, you’re so beautiful and have great taste!
the only small suggestion: lower waisted shorts to flatter your amazing figure
you’re my new favorite blog
wow Emily! I love the entire outfit! Love the lazer, the shorts, the bag, the shoes! You look great!

Love those shoes!
Perfect. I love this look!
Those platforms are stunning, lady. What I’d give to raid your shoe collection!
Ficou lindo! look greatl!
I love the top and shoes you’re wearing. I like that you couldn’t ” help but add a bit of grunge to Rodeo Drive.” I wonder if the ladies with their stiff hair and tiny dogs that you were lost. =)
whooops! – supposed to read “thought you were lost.”
I agree with a the few other comments that you have a great figure and those shorts are just not flattering. They are a little too high-waisted and are creeping up in the front…that is never a good look.
I still think you’re fab though!
those shoes are out of control! amazing! have we seen them before? can we get a close-up?
so i have a question for you. you always look fabulous. and are always preparing such fantastic little meals. how do you stay lean and fit? do you work out everyday? i don’t really recall you talking a lot about exercising your face off. i’ve been a daily follower probably since close to the beginning of your blog debut. i was just wondering…love the shoes by the way!
Fabulous booties!
love those wedges.
You couldn’t have done this look better….you totally look like the Euro bloggers….or the Altamira models coming off the runway in Paris….LOVE!
shoes = fab. Love it!
Amazing outfit! Love your booties

great shoes!!!!!!!!
You’re so lucky to still be able to pull off shorts in the fall. We are on scarves and sweaters already back east. Which is fine, of course, but my favorite kind of weather is shorts-and-a-sweater weather or jeans-and-a-tank weather. You know, that in between kind of climate where it’s sunny but crisp? Love that!
LOVE the entire outfit!
those shoes are amazing.

I must say I’m not a fan of this look (I don’t even OWN a pair of shorts, let alone denim cutoffs!) but you make it look great _ AS USUAL! Sheesh, give us mere mortals a chance here
wow i wish i could wear that outfit…i have to be bundled up in mittens and boots right now to keep from being cold!
I love sheer tights with denim short shorts! That’s one of the outfits I had planned for the weekend in my suitcase. ; )
Lovin’ your shoes, Em!

Love the outfit! I had almost an identical look I used to wear sometimes in college. Great minds…
super cute! love it.

Off topic: I’ve noticed some readers ask you how you stay so thin when you’re “always” cooking–and I think the answer is right in front of them!! You do much of your own cooking from scratch and you are mindful about each meal or treat you eat. I can tell just by reading your food posts that you probably eat slowly and savor each bite, too.
Anyways, inspiring post as always!
There is nothing I love more than black tights worn under cut off denim shorts. You look amazing, Emily!
wow really not liking this look at all. well actually everything BUT the shorts is ok. they just do not flatter your great frame and the look just isn’t working. maybe different shorts would have worked better?
Love the outfit Emily. Shorts + tights = my fall fav.
xoxo

Hi Emily. I like the shoes- cute. I love blogs especially yours and have been inspired to start my own. Please take a sec and check it out.

Love the outfit!! Really loving the shorts+tights look
and WTH @ liz { 11.19.09 at 1:45 am } ?! hope the comment was a joke cuz how else are we supposed to see how an outfit looks/fits if emily doesn’t take pictures of herself?
LOVE IT!
I keep noticing how long your hair has been getting – it’s gorgeous, Em!
Sorry for the second comment on the same post but I linked your site to my post today because I totally ended up changing after I saw your outfit–hope you don’t mind and just wanted to let you know. : )
I love the blazer! How do people have such luck with vintage blazers?! I feel like all the cool gals in the blogosphere have at least one!
You look stunning! I really love your shoes
I can’t breath bc of your shoes. dying over them.
loving the tights with the shorts look! you look fabulous

I have been a faithful (silent) follower of your blog for some time now and I love dang near EVERYTHING you wear (I love pretty much every post!!)…but I had to write for the very first time to say that those shorts really don’t anything for you, they don’t do anything for anyone really. You should consider tossing them, they scream “trash” no matter how much anyone tries to dress them up.
Keep up the fabulousness that you are though, you exude so much confidence!
cute look, you look beautiful
Clothes Are Cute
love the shorts! The outfit came together great! I love the purse too!
I think you look lovely, but the look is hardly inspired.
very chic!

I really really love this outfit, especially the combination of the blazer and the wedges.
I see you have some haters in the mix!! Miss Emily, you ALWAYS look amazing. I love reading your blog thanks so much for taking the time to share! xoxo
The whole outfit is great, and I esp. love those shoes!! – Natalya of Wear Necessities
I don’t think the people who aren’t loving this outfit is necessary a ‘hater’ they are just stating that they’re not a big fan of it. People are allowed to have opinions and they are allowed to state them if the blogger is allowing his/her readers to do so. Nothing wrong with it. I, too, think the shorts are hideous and they cut into to the crotch area a bit too much almost like it’s too small or something. Everything else about the outfit is gorgeous though
Wow, just the right grunge-chic balance!
I wish I could wear this kind of outfit in D.C right now.! Love those Fendi’s. They were at Neiman’s Last Call last week, so so cute on!
Fun outfit… but eek… shorts a bit too high… and creeping up front….yikes! Nice photography however, always.
When I found your blog months ago, I read every single post back to the first one because I finally found my favorite blog and inspiration. But I have to be honest, I don’t like those shorts. I think shorts would look fine but maybe a dressier fabric. Everything else looks fantastic though!
Love everything except for the hideous mom jean shorts. The first thing I noticed was a fashion “don’t” when I saw camel toe..lol…
love the shorts and opaque tights!

You are an inspiration for creativity and fun in the wardrobe dept. Commenter #5 (Liz) If you are tired of looking, then don’t for the love of god.
This is one of the cutest outfits ever! Adorable! I love the shoes
Love, love, LOVE those shoes! They remind me of the finale scene in All That Jazz, one of my favorite movies.

Usually love love love the looks, but this would stand out on Rodeo Drive for obvious reasons–in the same manner that Julia Roberts in “Pretty Woman” did (pre-transformation). AKA still appearing a bit “hooker-ish.” I’m sorry! Again–usually love the looks, just not at all a fan of this one :-/
Love your outfit, you look gorgeous!
Stunning!! Outfit perfection

Cannot wait to rock a similar look when my thick stockings arrive on the mail.

Hi Em –
All above comments about the outfit aside… It just occured to em to ask “Who takes your photos?” Because they are very well done. I must know! =D
(Ok one comment about the outfit… If the jean shorts make you feel great. Rock ‘em. If YOU feel like a million bucks in an outfit, chances are no one is really noticing the outfit anyhow. They’ll be noticing you.)
Ha!
TYPO – “…occured to ME to ask”
Grunge? Wow, do people in LA still refer to their style by that name? Time for some new photo poses too.
really nice
Gorgeous, absolutely gorgeous. Such a classic outfit done so well. You have to share your hair secrets with us!!
Emily L. -
Her boyfriend takes all the pictures. I remember her mentioning it in an earlier post where she answered questions asked in the comments. I agree though, they are always so well done!
you look fab! I love the texture of your shirt.
wauw! what an amazing outfit!I absolutely love it!
XOXO

I love your blog but just a question.. why do you dye your hair blond? just wondering because I think you would look gorgeous if you let your natural hair color grow out!
i love your style and i LOVE the blazer and the shoes but those jeans are just not cute:/ i think you need a better fitting pair of denim cutoffs without the pockets showing.
I’m loving this outfit!
aint it so! Beverly hills is so weird sometimes…anyhow..LOVE LOVE LOVE YOUR SHOES!!!
You look super cute and you look like you’re loving it so even better!
Love the Fendis!!
I love all that you wear, but not crazy about these shorts….i think they are a TAD BIT TOO HIGH….besides that you are super cute as always.

blazers + shorts + tights = foolproof outfit!
Your hair is always PERFECT. And this look is pretty, but the shorts must not be a kind of boyfriend one’s? I though they are very close fitting… Your “parts” are appearing…
LOVE that shirt – where is it from??
