Gwyneth Paltrow Just Wore Birkenstocks in the Most November-in-L.A. Way

There are certain celebrities who I instantly associate with L.A., and one of them is Gwyneth Paltrow. Everything about her screams sophisticated Southern California, including her effortless-yet-chic wardrobe. Speaking of Los Angeles, it follows its own set of rules when it comes to fall and winter weather, and so do its residents when it comes to their fall and winter wardrobes.
Recently, L.A. resident Paltrow stepped out for an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live in a Birkenstock outfit that made perfect sense for the oft-mild Los Angeles weather. It consisted of black Bermuda shorts, a red belted cardigan, and shiny black Birkenstock sandals. The combination proved to be the perfect fall-in-L.A. Birkenstock outfit, but if you live somewhere a little less mild than L.A. is in November, just add jeans or trousers (and maybe socks).
