Moving to LA from the Midwest and wondering what kinds of new, balmy weather staples I should get for weekend/office wear. Sandals, jackets, etc. Going out clothes. Already excited about upping my linen game, so any brand recos there would be great too. Thanks!

I would get here then decide. Will depend on your lifestyle and neighborhood which all may change after you get here. I also wouldn’t throw away your coats, jackets, and sweatshirts. It gets cool her at night and your body will quickly forget quickly how you used to brave the frigid temps.

Really depends on which neighborhood you’ll be in. We have “microclimates” where it’s different almost across the street.

Agreed re: waiting until you are in LA to buy new stuff tbh. I moved from Boston to SF and it was much easier to get new things once my day to day was settled. Then I knew what I needed and would actually use.

Wait. LA has lots of great boutiques.

Also I wouldn’t characterize LA as “balmy”. It’s more like “pleasant” with cool nights and hot dry summer afternoons unless you live on the beach. So think lightweight layers.

Also LA could be more casual than you’re expecting, or more fashionable - depends on where you are. It’s dozens of mini cultures packed into one area.

Thanks, everyone! Just got excited about shopping 🥲

What do you do for winter shoes and commuting?

I walk a total ~20 mins in between train/bus stations and then getting from the stop in the loop to the office.

What do I do come wintertime for boots? Do you wear them while you're in the office? Or do you bring dress shoes with you to change in to? I wear a suit to work, so what boots would be good for winter but also look decent with a suit? This is my first winter in Chicago (a socal transplant)

Stories of a Jax night out?

I'll go first: on a last night out for a navy guy I'd dated for like 6mo he dragged us to king street where i never enjoy, at the bar w the toss the ring game a couple was fucking in the bathroom and the guy in front of me in line was mad about it taking so long so he started banging on the door trying to break it down and started to fight them when they came out. So we escaped to kickbacks where a customer threw a drink at the waitress who subsequently pulled a 🔪
