I'm a Former Nordstrom Buyer, and I'm Wearing These 7 Items After Visiting L.A

Susie Wright’s shopping and style tips are always of interest. After all, she’s an experienced fashion professional that clearly knows her stuff with her work as a stylist and blogger (her site is So Susie) and her previous role as a Nordstrom buyer. While she calls Portland home, she often heads down to Los Angeles when she’s looking for fresh sartorial inspiration. She actually just got back from one of her trips, so we wanted to get a sense of what inspired her.

"I love going to L.A., and always come back with lots of great inspo," she said. "Since it’s only a quick two-hour flight, it’s easy for me to go several times a year for trend shopping, people watching for street style, and, of course, eating at all the fun new spots." On that note, Wright shared with us the specific items she’s wearing even more of or is starting to wear after being influenced by that effortless California aesthetic. For reference, the pieces in question are all chic and easy to style.

Keep scrolling for items to consider, along with visual and shopping inspiration. 

"Longer coats worn with matching sets or simple tees, hoodies, and denim are so cool. The styling options are endless, and they definitely make a statement."
"Faux-leather is a trend I hope never fades away. Everyone is wearing it and so many of the cool pieces are also affordable! Elevate your outfit effortlessly with just this one piece."
"Always easy and perfect for L.A.’s casual lifestyle. I love styling knit dresses with sneakers on the weekend, but also dressing them up a bit for work. There are so many choices right now. Look for ones that aren’t too bulky so you can easily throw on a jacket."
"A tailored blazer is a classic, and it works perfectly with denim and sneakers. You can also dress it up for work and dinner (and post-dinner drinks)."
"Sneakers of all kinds were everywhere, and I’m looking for a clean white retro pair next."
"Talk about a versatile piece! Style this cardigan buttoned with pretty jewelry and high-rise denim or layer a tee under it. This is a trend that will easily go into next year."
"Pretty blouses are the perfect going-out tops to pair with denim. They're dressier than a tee, but still casual and comfortable. I always think black blouses work magic, but so do special print ones that catch your eye."

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...

Katy Perry Takes Inspiration From "Kill Bill" in Yellow Moto Jacket and Low-Rise Jeans

Katy Perry is making the press rounds ahead of the upcoming season of "American Idol." On March 28, the competition judge and singer was spotted leaving "Good Morning America" in casual, off-duty street style that turned heads. She wore distressed, low-rise R13 Denim jeans that sat at her hips, as well as a white baby tee under a cropped leather Balenciaga jacket . With its thick black stripes running down the sleeves, the yellow race jacket was reminiscent of Uma Thurman 's iconic tracksuit in "Kill Bill." Wearing an assortment of rings on each of her left fingers, Perry also carried a yellow coffee cup with her other hand to match her jacket. As for the rest of her cool outfit, which was curated by stylist Tatiana Waterford , pointed black heels peeked out from the floor-length denim and sporty cat-eye sunglasses shielded the singer's eyes. The edgy ensemble was one of three outfits she wore on Tuesday. Perry arrived on the morning-show set ...
