If you compare stereotypical "NYC girl" style to "California girl" style, it's kind of night and day. There are obviously very different climates on opposite coasts and while the California aesthetic leans more casual and sometimes even bohemian, the New York aesthetic leans more forward and eclectic, in general. But despite this, there are plenty of sartorial similarities, which we're always on the lookout for.
At press time, the temperature in Los Angeles is 87 degrees while it's a more seasonal 70 degrees in New York, but the beauty of fall clothes is that they're typically well-suited for both mild and cooler temperatures. Hence the reason we're seeing plenty of fall items that are currently being worn by women in both regions while scrolling through our Instagram feeds.
In case you need some fall style inspiration regardless of where you live, keep scrolling to shop seven fall pieces women on opposite sides of the nation have in common.
