The Skinny Jean Style I Would Never Wear With Ankle Boots

Everyone has their own fashion pet peeves, but I feel like mine is one that should be shared with the world. Is it revolutionary? Probably not, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't be discussing it here. I have vowed to never wear skinny jeans that are too long with ankle boots. Why? Because the extra material tends to bunch awkwardly, and besides being uncomfortable, it's not the look I'm going for.

Instead, I always opt for an ankle-grazing pair of skinny jeans. This way, the jeans end right where your boots start, allowing for the most streamlined silhouette possible. There is definitely a time for lengthier skinny jeans, but in my opinion, ankle-grazing pairs are the best style to wear when you're searching for the most flattering denim-and–ankle boot combination.

Here, I have pulled some of my favorite ankle boot–and–skinny jean street style shots that prove semi-cropped and ankle-grazing denim styles look the most flattering when paired with said boots. And don't worry—there's a large denim shopping selection ahead as well. We would never leave you hanging like that.

Go on to shop the ankle boot–and–skinny jean combination I always wear.

Black-on-black jeans and boots = the perfect look.
A little animal print is always a good idea.
An outfit full of classic pieces is sure to be a winner. 
Let the raw hem of your skinny jeans add some edge to an otherwise polished ensemble. 
Sometimes, it's okay to let your boots do all the talking. 
…or your bag.
Proportion play can make each piece you're wearing look 10 times more expensive.
When opting for chunky boots, this ankle-grazing skinny-jean rule is especially applicable.
Who said you couldn't mix navy and black? Obviously not this girl.
Wrapping it up with our favorite ankle boot trend of the moment: patent white.

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...
