Ashley Graham's Brilliant Styling Hack Just Made the Oversize Trend Sexier Than You Ever Thought Possible

Putting Ashley Graham and "sexy" in the same sentence is basically a redundancy at this point. The supermodel-slash-style-star notoriously makes the rounds putting the sultry in outfits that might register as "basic" on anyone else. Enter Ashley celebrating Gigi Hadid's birthday in an oversize Levi's Made & Crafted denim jacket cinched at the waist with a chain-link belt and worn not with pants but with thigh-high boots. On a scale from one to head-turning, this is "I just spit out my morning coffee" sexy. The real kicker? She managed to make that kind of jaw-dropping statement all without trying too hard.

Contrary to the once-popular belief that minidresses, body-con fabrics, and slinky straps are the key to sultry style, Ashley took what may be the most traditionally "unsexy" of pieces - a giant denim jacket, worn at least three sizes too big - and flipped it on its head. Unbuttoned just to there . . . nipped in at the waist, so as not to hide her shape . . . and finished not with sneakers (though I'm inclined to think even sneakers here couldn't detract from the allure) but with thigh-grazing boots and a Fendi clutch, Ashley, like a fashion magician, transformed something utilitarian into a look that's, well, frankly smoldering. In conclusion, my wardrobe now suddenly feels lacking in that I don't possess my own XXL jacket. You too? Join me here to shop your own.

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...
