Forget the hoodies and puffer jackets—L.A. It girls are sporting this anti-trend piece paired with leggings.

      If you were to ask me to envision the ultimate L.A. It girl, my mind would likely immediately conjure up an image of Kaia Gerber in black leggings and sneakers. And indeed, that’s precisely what she was spotted wearing in her hometown over the weekend. Gerber sported classic black leggings paired with her go-to Nike Metcon sneakers. Instead of a hoodie or puffer—typical choices for this season (yes, it occasionally gets slightly chilly in Southern California)—Gerber opted for a fleece pullover. More specifically, it was a relaxed half-zip in black. A few winters ago, when Sandy Liang sparked a trend among fashion enthusiasts for fleece, I considered fleece pullovers trendy. Now, they have become essential items in wardrobes, perfect for those crisp days when you desire something a bit more refined than a sweatshirt but less heavy than a puffer. A fleece pullover offers that ideal balance, and nobody exemplifies this better than Gerber. Continue scrolling to shop the Kaia Gerber–approved fleece pullover "anti-trend" for pairing with your leggings and sneakers this season and beyond.
