I was expecting to open this and see a bunch of hipper-than-thou 20-somethings. Instead, I opened it and saw a diverse group of ages and ethnicities.

Very cool photos and a better representation of what I see in Hollywood every day. This is my LA.

Thanks for this.

Seeing those two boys all 80's rocker'd out trips me OUT. What does it all MEAN?!??!

Great photos. Very diverse fashions and people. I always send these articles to my GF back in Chicago so she can get some ideas of LA fashion :)

@Caliking

the rocker boys are actually Swedish triplets. They live on my street and yes, they dress like that ALL the time. Apparently they're huge in Sweden or something. Or at least that's the rumor going around the building. *shrugs*

Great to see all the feedback.
I will do my best to bring you this post on a daily basis.
Feel free to open up and say whatever you're feeling.
If you like an outfit you see here don't hesitate to tell us why, if you see one you hate and just can't believe it's on here, tell us!
I won't focus on one age group or style.
You will soon find styles ranging from Rodeo Dr to Skid Row, everyone has style, some good some bad.

kzap, in response to your question "dude that chick's a dude???herm?trans?"
anything is possible here, i don't worry about gender or race.
i'm searching for people with a unique style, a style that catches my eye on the street, even if they happen to have a secret down there ;)

Man, this makes me miss LA (home). I think it would be awesome for Shanghaiist to do this, however, I'm really afraid it would turn out more like this:

LA is a city where Heidi Montag can be a designer. That about sums it up.
