How Would YOU Wear It? Kate Beckinsale

November 2, 2007

I know I'm starting to sound like a broken record, but it still confuses me when people wear tights in hot weather. Exhibit A: Kate Beckinsale while Halloween shopping. This all-black look may have worked in the evening but it certainly doesn't fly on a sunny day in LA.

If I was Kate, I would have firstly ditched the knit beanie. Unless you're in snow, rain, or San Francisco, you don't need it. Next, I would have left behind the black tights. She has nice gams and should show them off. I would have also switched the suede boots for a pair of colored flats.

How would YOU wear it?

I would just get rid of the beanie, that is all.

If that thing on the top is a shirt and not a jumpsuit, I would wear it with skinny jeans and some red flats :D

It has been pretty chilly here in LA. I know that everyone outside of LA always assumes its permanently hot here just because its sunny, but that's not that case. Granted if it drops below 70, we're chilly, but that's just because of what we've become accustomed to.

This outfit is actually pretty cute! I wouldn't have worn it in the daytime but it would have been great at night.. sans the beanie..

it is a cute look but not appropriate for the day time. I would have gone with no tights and flats.

It's a really cute look! Hey, some of us live in warm climes that have no real seasons and weather can change hourly (no, really, old Texas saying). I wear cold weather clothing in the fall months, even though it may be hot out because I don't want to wear it for the short two weeks in February it is actually cold. Besides, they crank the A/C at work so it all balances out. I'm more indoors than out anyway. :)

I think it's quite a cute look and I agree, it can be almost icy down at Malibu/Venice sometimes!

i agree with the L.A. posters, it was what angelenos consider "chilly" this week (ie., low 70s). it's funny ... but i look forward to moving back to SF because it means i can really layer and wear cute winter outfits!

it would confuse me too, if the weather in LA was actually hot. down in so. cal it has actually been really cold. so her tights do work.

i wouldn't wear the tights...but love the boots!

lamlokyihk 5 years 28 weeks

this is not bad...I think just THAT OUTFIT again, kind of boring

I love the outfit....ditch the beanie and tights though.

sumnboutme 5 years 28 weeks

it's been cold here in LA this past week...so no on the flats...

YAYitsErin 5 years 28 weeks

ditch the tights and beanie and she's good to go. if i could re-do the entire outfit i'd prolly ditch the tights and beanie and add colored flats and a colorful scarf.

Isn't it nice that we are finally feeling fall in the air here in LA? It's been hot forever! I think she looks cute and don't see what the big deal is.

it wasnt warm here at all this week....It was in the 70s and 60s in the mornings which is COOL for us...and it has even been overcast

astanisz 5 years 28 weeks

Actually its been pretty cold here in the LA area lately, especially if you are near the shore. I live right outside malibu and i was wearing a sweater and jeans yesterday..

She seems a little confused.

fleurfairy 5 years 28 weeks

Yeah, considering she is in LA this is pretty ridiculous. If she was in New York it would be appropriate. But what is with this trend of wearing tights under shorts?? I hate it.

glam sugar 5 years 28 weeks

Ditch the hat and tights and wear leopard print peep-toes

girliceclimber 5 years 28 weeks

It's not always warm in LA... this past week it was actually kind of cold, and a lot of people were wearing tights and leggings. Although Kate does look a little goofy in the tights and hat.
