This Type of Shoe Is the "Worst Offender" for Foot Pain

When shopping for shoes, we definitely weigh elements like the price, style, and brand, but one variable reigns supreme: the comfort factor. Who wants to waste their money on shoes that give you foot pain or blisters? For help picking the best pair, I tapped Maija Benincasa, whose made-in-Italy brand Benincasa is specifically designed to be the most comfortable shoes around. She developed custom technology with biomedical and footwear experts to prevent foot pain, so I knew she'd have expert tips to share.

"When shopping for high heels, make sure to choose soft, flexible leathers and suedes," Benincasa told Who What Wear. "The stiffer the material, the less forgiving the shoe will feel over time. For example, patent leather, while beautiful, is one of the worst offenders when it comes to comfort. That is why you will not find any uppers in the Benincasa line in full patent leather."

Benincasa also revealed another detail you should look for when shopping. "As important as the upper material is the lining in the shoe," she told us. "Make sure your shoes are lined in 100% leather. This keeps your shoes feeling soft and aids with breathability and odor." Scroll down to shop Benincasa's custom shoes as well as other pretty options—and say goodbye to foot pain.

Next, eight style tips I learned from writing 24 Kate Middleton stories last year.

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...
