Here in L.A., we're blessed with typical "summer" weather year-round. (We know that we're a little bit spoiled.) All that good weather means that every L.A. girl has her own outfit combo on lock for a casual night out in the city. Whether it's a midi dress with sandals or a crop top with high-waisted trousers, these laid-back outfits are what define L.A.-girl summer style.

Every Thursday in June, we host a (free!) outdoor movie screening as part of our annual Street Style Cinema series at The Grove to kick off the season on a stylish note. We picnicked on the lawn, sipped cocktails, and enjoyed our favorite modern classics—we dare you to name a more ideal summer night. The series started with a rom-com favorite that's quintessentially L.A., 500 Days of Summer, and will finish off on an equally strong note with a screening of La La Land.

A stylish L.A. crowd of fashion bloggers, editors, and Who What Wear readers turned out for the first three screenings of the series. If you weren't able to make one of them, not to worry. Just ahead, we're sharing the best outfit moments yet along with the key pieces you can shop to get their looks.
