Billie Eilish's Style Is on a Whole Other Level, So Let's Give It Up For the Queen of Cool Comfort

Billie Eilish's "Ocean Eyes" and incredibly captivating vocals aren't the only things that have stolen our attention over the last two years. The 17-year-old's affinity for vastly oversize sweatshirts, rare high-end sneakers, and stacks of shiny jewelry is something I could only dream of pulling off the way she does. To an outsider, Billie's look is jarring. I mean, at that age, I was wearing the tightest pair of leggings I could find and some ill-fitting graphic tee featuring a band I'd never listened to before. But her out-there style is the ultimate combination of swag and comfort, and she manages to rock these looks without the sloppiness sometimes associated with sweats.

I guess we should backtrack - you don't know Billie? You haven't listened to music in the last two or three years? Well, please allow us to introduce you to the powerhouse that she is. The Los Angeles native is young, but you could never tell from her lyrics and the range of vocal skills, plus her style is freaking cool and her 15 million Instagram followers probably agree. She mixes designer prints with no hesitation, brings depth to monochromatic outfits, and doesn't think twice about it.

In 2017, she told Harper's Bazaar that she's fully aware of how her style may appear, but that's why she loves it. "I just like dressing out of my comfort zone. I want to dress in a way that if I was in a room full of people wearing regular clothes, I would be like, 'Oh, I bet everyone's looking at me.' I want to feel that way. That's my casual," she explained. "I am not comfortable when I'm wearing just some jeans and a shirt. I just feel wrong and I feel like very not me and out of my place and just weird . . . I love being judged. I'm here for it."

There are few people who could pull off a Sailor Moon-inspired outfit on the red carpet for the iHeartRadio Music Awards, and even fewer who could rock a custom Louis Vuitton boot to recover from a foot injury. But let it be known that her outfits are not XXXL sweatsuits from the corner store; these are mostly custom designer pieces that she pulls off gracefully. Billie has a sense of style and a level of coolness that at 10 years her senior, I'm genuinely jealous of. Feast your eyes on some of Billie's most Billie-esque outfits ahead, and get inspired to add a little swag to your sweats.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...

Katy Perry Takes Inspiration From "Kill Bill" in Yellow Moto Jacket and Low-Rise Jeans

Katy Perry is making the press rounds ahead of the upcoming season of "American Idol." On March 28, the competition judge and singer was spotted leaving "Good Morning America" in casual, off-duty street style that turned heads. She wore distressed, low-rise R13 Denim jeans that sat at her hips, as well as a white baby tee under a cropped leather Balenciaga jacket . With its thick black stripes running down the sleeves, the yellow race jacket was reminiscent of Uma Thurman 's iconic tracksuit in "Kill Bill." Wearing an assortment of rings on each of her left fingers, Perry also carried a yellow coffee cup with her other hand to match her jacket. As for the rest of her cool outfit, which was curated by stylist Tatiana Waterford , pointed black heels peeked out from the floor-length denim and sporty cat-eye sunglasses shielded the singer's eyes. The edgy ensemble was one of three outfits she wore on Tuesday. Perry arrived on the morning-show set ...
