A few months ago, I packed up the life I'd been building in New York City for the last five years to head out west to Los Angles. I'd visited L.A. a few times prior to the big cross-country move. However, once I landed here, it became abundantly clear that my wardrobe could use some filling in. Since I'm sure I'm not the only person embracing the casual, understated L.A. vibes, I thought I'd bring you along while I shop for key pieces to upgrade my wardrobe and get West Coast ready.
I'm tackling all categories, which includes snagging the perfect pair of jeans and getting some wear-with-everything sandals. Los Angeles is a lot cooler at times than I initially expected, so I have to make sure I have a cardigan, a jacket, and other layer-friendly pieces. Ahead, scroll through some of my Los Angeles–specific clothing picks.
A handy-dandy emotional-support cardigan. For the days when I miss NYC. A staple you can never have enough of. When you want to dress up without trying too hard. No one really tells you how cold L.A. can get sometimes. Be prepared. A solid pair of jeans is a must in the land of denim. Stripes, stripes, stripes! Smocked details for the win. Farmers market–core.A go-to occasion dress that can be worn in both formal and casual environments. Skater chic.The ultimate work tote. You can never have enough white tank tops. A date-night top. Breezy picnic vibes. Cool pants are a no-brainer. A sexy and stylish going-out top. You can never have too many pairs of black leggings. A workout top that can also just be a cute everyday top.A matching pair of leggings to keep up with all the chic movement classes. A great piece for adding fun texture and giving any look a little more flair. Voluminous sleeves take this to the next level. A great everyday bag that's understated but incredibly chic. A perfect personal item when I'm visiting my NY pals. A slip is always a good idea. A solid pair of sandals is a must. A staple. A perfectly cropped black tee is *chef's kiss*.
