The beauty with living in LA during winter is that you still get the sun without the heat. Of course it doesn’t snow but at least you can dress in light winter clothes. Just like Rachel Bilson here, spotted shopping for fruits and vegetables early this February, garbed in sweater and scarf, paired with jeans, T-strap flats, and sunglasses. Now, only in LA will you find people wearing such an ensemble (and perhaps also in Vegas).

Rachel Bilson spotted shopping for fruits and vegetables

Rachel definitely looks dressed down in the pictures, but still looking pretty. You know… the kind who looks good even without make-up. Now as for the shoes, THOSE I love.

They look so comfy. And the cut is quite unique. You will rarely find a pair of T-strap flats that only cover the front and heel of the foot. Most T-strap flats available in the market look like ballet flats with T-straps on them.

I tried looking for a similar pair but couldn’t find one. If you come across a style such as hers, please let know.

On another note, I came across these cute T-strap flats from Kenneth Cole, Sigerson Morrison, and Charlotte Ronson. Not the same cut, but these are quite slim and flat – very feminine and easy to wear. Plus, all three are on discount!

Charlotte Ronson PA7062 T-strap Flats, on sale for US$94 at Zappos.com

Sigerson Morrison 9517 T-strap Flats, on sale for US$274 at Zappos.com (black color only; gold color at full price)

Kenneth Cole NY Strawberry Hill Flat, on sale for US$88 at Heels.com
