The Shoe Trend That Is Officially Replacing Naked Shoes

Shoe styles tend to come and go like the wind, so much so that it really is rather difficult to keep up. If staying ahead of the trends isn't your job like it is mine, then no one expects you to know anything about anything until we tell you. Today, we want you to think back to last summer when the naked shoe dominated the footwear scene and Barbie feet became the hottest Instagram sensation since selfies. The early 2018 naked shoe was PVC-focused. Then, it transformed into the barely there strappy sandal, and now, the 2019 naked shoe is all about mesh. 

Mesh shoes have officially dominated the market, coming in variations ranging from fine- to larger-netted styles. The now-iconic Bottega Venetta pumps might instantly come to mind, but there are dozens of other designers churning out versions that are chic as well. We love this iteration of the naked shoe for multiple reasons, one being that unlike in years past, you can actually wear this one during the winter. Since a majority of the mesh shoes right now are pumps or mules, this means you can style them with tights, socks, or on their own should the weather allow. The idea of a barely there shoe is still present via the sheer mesh, but this season's read more elevated, approachable, and, honestly, a tad more mature. 

Ahead, see a quick look back at the most popular naked shoes over the past few years, and then shop the mesh winter shoe trend we're backing this season. 

These are my favorite of the bunch in case you were wondering. 
The chicest affordable version out there. 
An alternative shoe for an alternative bride. 
Update your go-to office pumps to these.
For when you still want to wear glitter as an adult but don't want to look like a child.
The mesh shoes to end all mesh shoes.
Perfect for parties—or jeans and a tee.
The longer you stare at these, the more they grow on you.
The easy-to-wear shoes all of your trousers will pair perfectly with. 
Obsessed is an understatement. 
Buy the black pair too and wear one of each. 
Do yourself a favor and wear these with all of your LBDs.
This is one shoe brand to watch.
On-trend and timeless all at once.
For the woman who loves a good frill.
That heel will get you compliments galore. 
These definitely aren't your average slingbacks. 
Can we pause and appreciate these affordable Stuart Weitzman shoes? Thanks. 
One more version from The Row because of the very literal take of the style. 
These are flirty. End of story. 
Oh, so the perfect party shoes do exist. 
We love the PVC paneling on the side for maximum naked effect.  Next up, check out all the timeless shoe styles you should be buying this Black Friday.

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...
