I Live in the South But Dress Like I Live in L.A.—Here's My Fall Shopping List
As someone who's moved from Louisiana to Pittsburgh to NYC to L.A. and back to the South (North Carolina this time), I have a lot of thoughts about the differences in how people around the country dress. I think I could even write a thesis on it. But for now, I'll focus on the way that I dress. Of the cities I've lived in during my adult life, Los Angeles is the place I resided the longest, and it certainly had the most influence on my style. It's where I started working in fashion, after all.
Although I've lived in North Carolina for six years now, I can't say that I really relate to or identify with the Southern aesthetic. I prefer the "L.A. look." To me, that means more neutrals (aside from seasonal color trends), trend-forward accessories, denim that isn't skinny jeans, and interesting outfits with a bit more edge than what you typically see in the South. With that in mind, below is my fall shopping wish list. I can't have it all, but I narrowed it down to my favorites in case you can relate and want to shop along with me.
Ask me for the perfect pair of boots, and I'll show you these.This rust-colored vest is my idea of a fall basic.It's the removable collar for me.Pretty, comfortable, and affordable.I already ordered this in green, but it was a tough decision.I'm going to have a hard time taking these off this fall.Good luck finding a better pair of jeans. These are perfect.Yes, it's chocolate brown, and yes, it's dreamy.I can't get over how gorgeous this top looks on.Hurry up—these are going to sell out.How many cool details can you fit into one sweatshirt?I didn't realize I needed a winter baseball cap until now, but I definitely do.Definitely not your grandma's cardigan.This groovy print is making me feel things.This deserty color combo is so chic.The perfect thing to wear with knee-high boots.Only buttoning two buttons is key.Your search for the perfect loafers ends here.Excuse me while I go copy this entire outfit.A patchwork plaid shirt just hits different.I'm just really into kelly-green everything these days.It's safe to say that every Who What Wear editor is obsessed with these.I predict that these will be an It item at NYFW.These are the most stunning pearl earrings I've seen in awhile.LNA clearly excels at designing interesting knit tops.
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...

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...
