Weather Vain: Phoenix, Arizona
Right about now is the perfect time to be in Arizona, no? I mean, I don’t actually know this, but it seems right: The days are warm but not hot, and the nights call for a jacket. Here’s what I’d wear in my little Phoenix fantasy world. —erica

Clockwise from top left:
+ This easy, breezy Edun dress is pretty much all-season around these parts, with thin sweater or woven scarf tossed on top when necessary.
+ Keep it simple with a slim cork wristlet from Rag & Bone. Pairs nicely with a glass or three of wine at Postino.
+ You gots to have your shades, man, and this Raen pair is Hunter S. Thompson loud but still supremely classic.
+ Kora’s leather-wrapped horn bangles can hang in Scottsdale.
+ This beige suede jacket from Alexander Wang wards off the desert chill during your long-ass wait at Pizzeria Bianco.
+ Yes, they are spike earrings, but Gretchen Jones knows how to make them a surprise.
+ Because K. Jacques knows you need a POC (pop of color, duh).
