The 3 Worst Items to Wear to a Party, According to an Event Planner

Before you read this, check your schedule and see how many holiday parties you have on your calendar. If you’re anything like me, then you’ve most likely committed to or tentatively RSPV’d to a handful of festivities. Needless to say, we’re all busy, we all have obligations to attend to, and we all need something fitting to wear. A heavily stacked agenda will quickly turn into a hefty last-minute shopping list, so naturally, with a party-filled schedule comes the pressure of planning what to wear to each get-together. By no means should an outfit stress you out and be the main priority of attending an event, but who doesn't want to look their best?

To lift some of the weight during this busy part of the year, we reached out to event planner Stefanie Cove, who is responsible for organizing get-togethers for celebrities like Gwyneth Paltrow and Molly Sims (to name-drop a few). Cove, who attends and produces countless events a year, revealed her dressing insights with us by sharing the top items to avoid wearing to a party. With her helpful advice and our shopping guidance, we’re confident we all can power through this year’s party-going season seamlessly and—of course—stylishly. Ahead you’ll find Cove’s tips to help ease your getting-ready process for the next time you’re prepping what to wear to an event.

Stick with larger heels because you won’t sink in any terrain. It’s in now to wear thicker heels, and I say do it. You don’t always know what to expect at a party terrain wise … and it can make for a very awkward moment if you are in stilettos and start to sink.”

“Strapless bras stick out in all the wrong places. I say stick with pasties or adhesive, backless bras so you don’t have to worry about it all night long.”

“It’s just not worth ruining a pricey dress for a bad clasp, and a horrible snag can happen in one quick moment.”

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...
