NYC vs. L.A.: The Spring Outfits Fashion Girls Wear on Repeat

If there are two groups of ladies we get the most style inspiration from (besides celebs, of course), it’s the street style stars of NYC and L.A. The crowds have their own sense of style, but we’ve actually noticed that both groups have been wearing similar outfits recently. Naturally, though, each has either that East or West Coast twist.

Keep scrolling to check out how NYC and L.A. girls style similar outfits and to find your perfect spring ensemble to copy right now, no matter where you live.

To give this button skirt a lower-key feel, Lim opted for an easy striped tee and sandals. The crisp blazer gave the overall vibe just the right amount of polish.

It’s easy to give flared jeans a sleek spin with sophisticated heels, like Bernstein did here. A nice sweater and colorful jacket complete the look.
