7 NYC-Girl Style Staples I'm Scooping Up at Nordstrom

So you want to get the NYC-girl fashion look while shopping at Nordstrom, you say? I got you. While there's really no way to sum up the style of a city comprised of eight million residents, there's definitely an overall sense of cool that pervades New York fashion. They've figured out how to dress for every type of weather while also being the first to test-drive the latest trends—wearing everything from classic black jeans to the latest It bag—and I've decided to take it upon myself to do something about all my wardrobe envy.

I took to the retailer I always turn to for staple fashion buys—Nordstrom—and after highlighting the pieces I feel are essential to any NYC-girl wardrobe, I found my favorite versions of each and am currently debating which to buy. If you're with me, keep scrolling to see (and shop) each one.

First things first: denim. It wouldn't be a story on NYC-girl style if we didn't talk about jeans at all and black high-waisted pairs are the backbone of any city girl's closet.
Now that the days are getting longer and spring is almost here, an easy throw-on-and-go dress is a must, but keep it in rotation all year long by getting creative with layering. As for the silhouette, we're loving lingerie-inspired slips the most right now.
Walking all day is just part of life in NYC, which makes narrowing in on sandals that are both cute and comfy essential. These ones magically do both.
The leather jacket is, to me, synonymous with that sleek and polished look NY people are known for, and while leather motos will always be a thing, fresher leather jackets like blazers and shirt jackets are coming in hot.
Sure, residents of the East Coast city love their style staples, but they know that grabbing a trend-focused bag can instantly update an otherwise basic outfit.
Layer up a few gold chain necklaces and you have the ideal jewelry look that you can wear day in and day out.
Classic kicks don't have to be boring—just take it from NYC residents who always manage to find the coolest versions of the classic sneakers we know and love. 

Next up, all the affordable buys our editors are recommending for spring.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
