I Just Got Back From L.A.—These Are the Trends I Saw Most Out and About

I recently traveled to Los Angeles for work. With my role as a fashion editor, I basically spent the bulk of my time working on various style projects and writing and chatting about trends with my coworkers. Given my heightened sartorial sensibilities, I also kept a close eye on what people are wearing out and about. Today I thought I’d share with you the trends I saw often in L.A. You know, to potentially inspire any upcoming shopping trips.

The trends in question all leaned into that effortless California vibe. Each is forward and also highly versatile in that they could be styled with a range of different basics. I’m talking about everything from chic separates that look excellent with denim to simple shoe trends that are also inherently chic.

With all that in mind, keep scrolling to check out the trends that consistently caught my attention. To showcase each, I pulled visual inspiration from various style setters that live in L.A. Incorporating one or all of the looks into your wardrobe could just give you that cool and easy California fashion-person aesthetic.

The oversize button-down shirt is the one trend I saw time and time again. Whether worn on its own or open with a tee, the relaxed piece brought ease to various looks.
It's all about wide-leg and loose trousers RN. Formfitting pants weren't as prevalent, but silhouettes like this reigned supreme. The pants were typically styled with cute tanks or button-down shirts.
Heeled sandals definitely had a moment, but so did fashion-forward flat sandals for a comfortable and cool vibe. 
I saw a few cute corset-inspired tops—especially while dining outside for dinner. Styles like this were often teamed with jeans or midi skirts.
In the denim realm, L.A. fashion people embraced those loose, straight-leg jeans. 
Oversize blazers have been staples in many wardrobes over the past few seasons, and the lighter-weight styles (with sleeves bunched up) popped up a lot.

Next, check out the brands L.A. fashion people love.

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...
