NYC and L.A. Influence My Style the Most—29 Items That Fashion People From Both Places Would Agree On
I've always been an East Coaster at heart. I grew up in the suburbs of Atlanta and moved to New York City promptly after graduating college at 22. Whether I was watching Gossip Girl and Sex and the City or bopping around Brooklyn as a baby fashion writer, East Coast style has always had a place in my wardrobe.
I, however, have been on that sweet West Coast vibe ever since I traded in skyscrapers for palm trees, Korean spa adventures, and beachy indie rock. Without realizing it, I've started embracing the easy, cool Southern California way of life—including lots of denim and breezy staples.
With key NYC and Los Angeles influences in mind, I've curated a list of top-tier new arrivals from across the internet that are bicoastal fashion person approved. There's a mix of elevated staples, breezy separates, cool statement finds, and much more. Keep scrolling to unlock gorgeous pieces that stylish people on both coasts would appreciate.
