You don’t turn to a style guru like Ellen V. Lora when you’re seeking advice on playing by “the rules.” Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker T-shirt As you’ll know if you’re part of her army of Instagram followers, the Los Angeles–based creative director and blogger behind Pure EVL is just as likely to be spotted in a neon-lime bomber as she is a floaty floral dress, and we’re not sure we’ll ever match her knack for effortlessly mixing unlike prints (though rest assured we’ll never stop trying). But if you’re looking to make getting dressed in the morning, well, fun again, Lora’s exactly who you want to talk to. “I’m that girl who will wear her faux-fur coat in the spring,” she tells us, reassuring us that we actually don’t have to banish the entirety of our winter wardrobes to the land beyond the wall (aka the back of our closets) as warmer weather edges its way into the forecast. We implored the blogger to turn her attention to H&M’s fittingly bold new Divided collection, and then we stepped back to let her work her magic… Lora’s retro-inspired spring take on the Canadian tuxedo has us itching for festival season: Expect to see us wearing this as we edge toward the stage to catch headlining acts all spring and summer long. The blogger’s relaxed double-denim look feels very ’70s and very rock ’n’ roll, which makes perfect sense, given that Lora cites Bianca Jagger as one of her biggest style influences. “She wore the clothes—the clothes didn’t wear her,” the blogger says of the icon whose notable fashion moments include the off-the-shoulder dress she wore while riding a horse(!) into Studio 54 and the plunging blazer–and–high-waisted skirt combo she sported while wedding the lead singer of The Rolling Stones.

In loose terms, Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker T-shirt the global art fair is like the equivalent of fashion month—it’s the magnet that brings a diverse force of creative minds all to one place. Though, it’s less of a traveling circus than Paris, Milan, London, and New York fashion weeks and more low-key. Instead of sitting front row with a photographer waiting in the wings for a picture, at Frieze, celebrities walk around in hats and sunglasses trying to avoid them. But from the artists to the collectors and educators that attend Frieze, there’s still a sense that the same people who love art also take fashion very seriously. Buzzing around Barker Hangar, we shuffled from exhibition to exhibition to scout all of the great style on the scene. A number of big seasonal trends were spotted in the crowd, but they came with a side of eccentricity, which was a friendly reminder that art people prefer to do things a bit differently. For a bleak day, the fashion surely turned up the heat—keep scrolling to see the best style moments at Frieze Los Angeles. Where does one get a half-blazer, half–bomber jacket? Visual artist Liz Lee sourced her unconventional topper from a theatre-department sale at CalArts, where she’s also an MFA student. “I got this for like a $1,” she recalls. “The program has students creating costumes for student contemporary dance shows and plays, so you get these bizarre Skims-like bodysuits and cool period pieces.” The underrated beauty of a dual or two-faced jacket like this is it can theoretically function in both casual and buttoned-up situations, but for Frieze, Lee wore it with baggy jeans from brand 69 and cool wraparound shades.
