MISFITS LOS ANGELES centers women carving their own lanes in an often-misunderstood city β and radiating something undeniable while doing it.
Weβre here to reboot what it means to be an Angelena: a woman who calls the City of Angels home, by birth or by choice.
Our mission? To demonstrate that femininity in L.A. runs deeper than appearances.

Women earn their shine here β through craft, grit, and spirit β and inspire everyone they touch along the way.
Weβre gentle rebels. We push back, quietly but clearly, against tired tropes and unattainable standards.
Because L.A. isnβt just a media machine. Itβs a nucleus of real connection, creative energy, and endless possibility β especially for the ambitious woman bold enough to claim it.
Thanks for being here. Now, letβs go, grrls.
xo,
