I'm one of those people in Brooklyn who peruse the magazines at the local café, buy oat milk matcha lattes, and (not to be arrogant) wear outfits that embody the words "laid-back" and "cool." I love the city, but during my daily 30-minute walks, I get to see the most happening people, from strangers to friends, go about their days in Instagram 'fit pic worthy outfits, and they have definitely influenced my style over the years. Brooklyn is the cool-kid mecca, where people, including me, feel safe to express themselves through fashion.
Now that we're edging toward fall, I've been scrolling endlessly through Nordstrom's new arrivals that fit my laid-back style. I've hit the jackpot on Madewell studded flats, the perfect brown leather Coach Brooklyn bag, and the comfiest clogs of my dreams from Crocs. (Trust me—they're cool.) If you're in the market for fashion items that are laid-back and cool, I've found 30 pieces that embody those words.
Black washed jeans are my new hyperfixation.
I love an abstract-print baby tee.
This cropped trench is perfect for fall.

These color-block jeans paired with the Coach bag above? Yeah, it's a match made in heaven.
I love a basic white tank, but something about the functional buttons on the side gives this one more styling options.
It's almost jacket season. I know—I'm not ready for summer to be over yet, either.
Listen, clogs and Crocs aren't everyone's cup of tea, but these are so cool and versatile to me.
This is such an It-girl top.
I'm experiencing black-heel fatigue. This rich olive green adds an elegant and subtle pop of color to an outfit.
The shape of these jeans is perfect.
I've been on the hunt for another leather skirt, and this color and silhouette are exactly what I'm looking for.
The stud details are exactly what you need to make an outfit interesting.

Yes, another cool button-down.

Sometimes, a basic black denim skirt is all you need to look cool.
It's almost time for crunchy leaves and loafers. This warm-toned pair is just right for fall.
The strapless detail and ruching sold me.
I can't get enough of asymmetrical tops.
