At LEO, we recently fell hard for The Optimist, a menswear brick & mortar one-stop-shop destination in LA. Their edited mix of cool independent brands—some LEO favorites, others new discoveries—makes dressing fun. We could while away hours browsing and lounging in the cozy living-room space. Quality but affordable pieces in a great looking store is the best kind of in-person experience we can think of. A perfect aesthetic match for our readers.
We jumped at the chance to curate a second round of edits for you, hand-selected and styled by Ilaria, this time for all your Spring/Summer needs. Because with a new spring, comes a fresh wardrobe start. Or so we’re told. Happy shopping!
