It’s likely that when you think about New York style, you think
leather
jacket, cool jeans, and a
killer pair of boots. But
I’m here to tell you it’s not that simple. It’s easy to pigeonhole
a popular city’s uniform into one key outfit, but the truth is New
York is a place of individuality and creativity, so the outfits you
see on the streets here are vast and chic. 

Every city has its fashion tropes. French
girls are known for their chic simplicity, and L.A.
girls are known for their obsession with comfort. And if
there’s one thing that’s absolutely true, it’s that New York is all
about personal style. But there are still a few things that every
city girl has her in wardrobe. Whether it’s due to practicality or
just a tried-and-true timeless look, I’ve rounded up the seven
things that New York girls are guaranteed to have in their closets
below.

Curious what pieces New York girls prioritize over everything
else besides just their leather jackets? Scroll to find out.

In my opinion, the most important item in a New York girl’s
wardrobe is a pair of comfortable sneakers. It’s truly something
one can’t live without. Dressed up or down, sneakers are a must for
a New York girl who’s always on the go. 

Of course jeans are important to any wardrobe, but you’d be
hard-pressed to find a girl in New York who doesn’t also own a pair
of chic workwear trousers. In a city that values dressing up, a
pair of non-denim pants are a must-have.

New Yorkers spend all week dressing, up so the weekends are
officially the time for more casual clothing. Whether you’re taking
a walk in the park or seeing new parts of the city, something easy
to throw on and comfortable is an incredibly important part of any
girl’s wardrobe.

Whether you’re wearing it to work or as an evening accessory, a
tailored blazer is a New York must-have. 

Summers in New York get so hot that the only reasonable option
is an easy dress. Paired with sneakers and a mini bag, you’ll
find this look all over the streets of the city.

It may not be the most glamorous, but practicality is key, and a
raincoat is something that every New Yorker really does need. So
why not get a chic one?

New York is a commuter city, and although teeny-tiny little bags
are super on-trend right now, they’re not the most pragmatic. So
what do New York girls do? Carry their mini bags
and a tote. Yep, it’s what we do.

Up next, this is about to be
the biggest skirt trend of fall.
