In L.A., Every It Girl Wears This Exact Legging Outfit With These Anti-Trend Sneakers
No exaggeration.
If you've spent any amount of time in Los Angeles, you've probably noticed that its reputation is true: It really is a pilates, matcha, Erewhon-obsessed culture. And as a city's culture and go-to activities often dictate what people wear, the same goes for L.A. Translation: You're going to see a lot of leggings-and-sneakers outfits worn by its residents. Of course, there are different iterations on the outfit, and the one I see more often than not being worn by L.A.'s chicest It girls was just spotted on Margot Robbie and Kaia Gerber.
Both of the aforementioned it girls were photographed wearing the It-girl legging outfit formula in question: a sweatshirt, leggings, crew socks, and the trendy sunglasses and designer bag of their choosing. As for the sneakers, L.A. girls often forgo trendy styles when wearing leggings, instead opting for chunky athletic sneakers, usually by New Balance, Asics, Salomon, ALO, or Nike. The low-key outfit works for both workouts and errands and never looks dated or overly trendy. Keep scrolling to see for yourself via Robbie and Gerber, and then shop the look (and more chunky sneakers) for yourself.
