Dreaming of 1930s Los Angeles Chic: How Trovata’s Fall Collection Perfectly Captures My Style

I’ve always been a bit of a style time traveler. Picture this: the golden age of California, where relaxed silhouettes and sun-bleached hues reign supreme, meets the timeless elegance of Parisian chic. Think vintage-inspired florals paired with sharp blazers and stripes that whisper “je ne sais quoi.” My closet is a love letter to these two worlds, and this fall, Trovata has answered that letter with a collection that feels like it was plucked from my daydreams.

1. Serafina Dress in Jasper Twilight: California Girl at Heart

The Serafina Dress in Jasper Twilight is a quintessential piece for those who crave the romance of an old-school California autumn. With its vintage floral print and effortless flow, it feels like walking through an orange grove at sunset. Pair it with ankle boots and a leather jacket for an effortlessly chic day out, or slip on some heels and red lipstick for an evening that tips its hat to Parisian sophistication.

2. Savannah Cardigan in Forest Stripe: Cozy and Classy

Enter the Savannah Cardigan in Forest Stripe. This is the piece you’ll find me wrapped in while sipping coffee on a foggy morning or layering over everything from jeans to dresses. Its earthy tones and classic stripes give a nod to California’s laid-back style while maintaining that touch of French elegance. Perfect for throwing on over a crisp white tee and cropped jeans, or layered over the Serafina dress for an added layer of warmth.

3. Susan Sweater in Navy Green Stripe: Effortless Elegance

The Susan Sweater in Navy Green Stripe is the epitome of effortless style. It’s the kind of sweater that makes you feel like you’ve stepped off a Parisian street and into the rolling hills of Northern California. I love pairing it with tailored trousers or high-waisted jeans for that relaxed-meets-refined look that has become my go-to. It’s versatile enough to dress up or down, depending on whether my day calls for a stroll through vineyards or a stylish lunch date.

4. Ryann Sweater in Red: A Bold Touch

Nothing says ‘vintage California’ quite like a pop of color, and the Ryann Sweater in Red does it brilliantly. Its bold hue brings energy to cooler days and pairs beautifully with both denim and classic trousers. I love the idea of wearing it with a pair of wide-leg jeans and loafers for a look that’s both nostalgic and modern, with just a dash of Parisian flair.

5. Grant Blazer in Inkwell: Parisian Polished

The Grant Blazer in Inkwell is where California casual meets Parisian polished. This tailored piece is perfect for throwing over a simple tee and jeans or layering with a cozy sweater. The rich, inkwell color adds depth and sophistication to any outfit, making it a must-have for days when I want to channel my inner Parisian without losing that laid-back California spirit.

6. Scout Jacket in Sable: Cool-Weather Companion

The Scout Jacket in Sable is like that one friend who makes every outing more fun. It’s versatile, timeless, and a little bit rugged. This jacket is perfect for throwing on over everything—from floral dresses to denim skirts. With its earthy tone and effortless fit, it captures that vintage California vibe while giving a nod to classic French utility styles. It’s the kind of piece that’s ready for a wine-tasting weekend or a coffee run in the city.

7. Jacquelin Shirt in Tranquil Mist: A Whisper of Elegance

The Jacquelin Shirt in Tranquil Mist is the unsung hero of any fall wardrobe. With its soft, calming color and relaxed fit, it’s a piece that transitions effortlessly from a casual day out to a more polished evening look. It feels just at home under the Grant Blazer as it does paired with the Savannah Cardigan for a more laid-back vibe.

This fall, Trovata has captured the very essence of my style—a harmonious blend of California’s sun-drenched ease and Parisian refinement. Whether it’s a walk along a foggy beach or a coffee date in a quaint little café, their collection is ready to take on the season with me. So, here’s to embracing the magic of California dreaming with a touch of Parisian chic… one beautiful piece at a time.
