Clearly, Jennifer Lopez isn’t about to let a little thing like the July sun beating down on her in the middle of the day ruin a good ’fit. The Halftime star was photographed at what appears to be a street fair or flea market in Los Angeles on July 3, wearing a maxi skirt, shades, and a long-sleeved black turtleneck, and walking arm in arm with husband-to-be Ben Affleck. As a person who dresses almost exclusively in linen tents all summer long, I am bewildered.
Jennifer Lopez completed her weather-denying look with chic gold hoop earrings, platform espadrilles, an oversized bag, and shades, with a phone in her hand.
For journalism’s sake, I spent more time than I probably needed to do looking up what the temperature was in Los Angeles on July 3. I discovered that while it was not as skin-meltingly hot as it’s gotten elsewhere in the country lately, it was at least mid-70s for most of the day. Is this causing me, personally, more consternation than it should? Absolutely. Am I going to stop talking about it? Probably not.
Barely a day has gone by lately that J.Lo and Ben haven’’t been spotted out and about. Just the day before, the duo were photographed milling around a Rolls Royce dealership (their life!), with Lopez wearing wide-leg jeans and a white T-shirt, a combo that at least seemed more weather appropriate.
The superstar has also been spotted in a variety of DKNY ’fits, peasant blouses, and chic blazers that I assume cost the same as a house. I always knew she knew how to pull together a look; I just wasn’t aware that she was also impervious to heat. Amazing!
