Enter the '90s Mom Sneaker, 2020's Biggest Shoe Trend

Gone are the days of chunky dad sneakers and little formfitting minidresses - in 2020, we're confronted with the mom sneaker, which is really only a slight variation of its counterpart. The mom sneaker calls for more of a "lewk," if you will. I still remember my mom coming home from the gym when I was a kid, working a red drawstring hoodie and coordinating sweats in the exact same color. Her ribbed white socks would be pulled up to the tapering on her joggers, her hair in a ponytail. Maybe she wore her long work coat or blazer over the casual outfit if it was cold out. The mood reminds me of Princess Diana's iconic biker shorts fashion moments, which are now being re-created by the likes of Hailey Baldwin and Bella Hadid.

The mom sneaker is most commonly paired with socks, and rather than the shoe featuring splashy logos or embellishments like past designer versions, these come in more muted, neutral tones. The sole is also decidedly less chunky - the trainer itself is more rounded - not meant to stand out on its own but be integrated smoothly into a totally '90s mom look. Of course, you don't necessarily have to wear yours with sweats. You can try a button-front floral midi dress (think: something Rachel Green would wear) or really go all out in mom jeans, too. Keep scrolling to find some inspo for pulling off the vibe, then shop a handful of our favorite footwear that fits the bill.

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...
