Los Angeles natives Nathalie and Laura Love grew up with certain shared
style predilections: a penchant for delicate jewelry, a love of Converse
sneakers, and a shared admiration for their friend Dylan Kawahara’s cool
looks. Now on separate coasts—a ballet dancer and model, Laura has taken
to New York’s East Village; Nathalie, a budding actress, is in Echo
Park, Los Angeles—the girls are making their own fashionable
discoveries. Here, our December It Girls extol the merits of cashmere
(socks versus tights), compare beauty spots (Valley Nails, Wi Spa), and
explain how they’ll stay cozy this winter.
