While there are many fashionable pockets in the U.S., New York and L.A. definitely make the best dressed list. It’s pretty much a given considering New York is essentially a fashion designer’s mecca and L.A., of course, is home to the glitz and glam of Hollywood. I’ve lived in both places (currently I reside on the West Coast), and not to toot my own horn, but I think my geographical preferences have given me a keen sense of what trends are on the up and up.
While New York will always feel more sophisticated and trend-forward compared to L.A.’s classic, laid-back style, there’s definitely more overlap now than ever before. I’ve found myself longing to dress up lately, so it makes sense that refined styles like tailored trousers or even sparkly hair clips are on the rise alongside our beloved leisurewear. (Don’t worry; joggers aren’t going anywhere anytime soon.) On that note, keep scrolling to find my picks for the most fashionable items out there right now.
