@xeniaadonts"A vintage-looking oversize leather jacket is a must," shared Adonts. While she wears it elsewhere too, she admitted it's the one piece that always makes her feel very NYC. Her Prada version features an oversize fit and simple hardware.
And this find, folks, is why you shouldn't skip the men's section.

@xeniaadontsAdonts is a big fan of her Gucci Blondie bag, a new and more minimalist style from the Italian house that features a slim profile and chain strap. "It's the easiest bag to style with everything and works at all times," she insisted, "which is great whenever I am in a rush—aka all the time in NYC!"
Styles that double as a crossbody and shoulder bag pull so much weight in your closet.

@xeniaadonts"I swear this is my most worn item of my life and it works All. The. Time," she gushed. As someone who's lived in some of the world's most stylish cities, we don't take that statement lightly. "I feel like New Yorkers are always rushed and we need those go-to items on hand that work with everything," and for the newly minted East Coaster, oversize blazers are the ultimate staple that is always in rotation.
Attire is Xenia's brand that focuses on the perfect wardrobe essentials. Case in point? This incredibly chic double-breasted blazer.
This editor happens to own this blazer and people always go out of their way to ask about it.

@xeniaadontsAs Attire's creative director, she test-drives all the best pieces from her brand before anyone else does. One item that's already a personal favorite in her wardrobe is the Day-to-Night cardigan, a ribbed knit with flared sleeves, and a plunging neckline. According to Adonts, this style is so NYC. "It has a little bit of sexiness but covers all the important parts."
Here's the style she's wearing above. Play around with which buttons you choose to fasten according to your mood.
I was ready to start building my fall wardrobe when I say this knit.

@xeniaadontsAdonts shared that some of her favorite looks are actually her most pared-back. "I am obsessed with simple looks," she noted. "Pair black wide-leg trousers with a white tank and you’ve got the cool girl city look."
Cargo's that are shockingly elevated? Sign me up.

@xeniaadontsLove them or hate them, the Balenciaga Triple S sneakers have been a loyal companion in her closet for years and according to Adonts, give her the height and comfort she craves. NYC girls know the value in an on-trend white sneaker, whether it be a designer investment pair or a more affordable style.
Xenia swears by her Triple S sneakers.
