If you’re looking for an outfit idea that’s both of-the-moment and practical, there’s no better reference than one from the ladies of NYC… and I’m not just saying that because I recently became one. Their unique perspective—informed both by a walking-centric lifestyle and the fact that they live in what is arguably the country’s most stylish city (sorry, L.A.)—lends itself perfectly to such matters.
They know what to wear if they want to look great and also feel great at the end of a long day that took them from a breakfast meeting to work to dinner to drinks and beyond. So what exactly is this stylish set test-driving right now? You’re about to find out. To see and shop all the spring trends girls in New York are actually wearing this season, just keep scrolling.
