The "Risky" Shoe Trend Taking the Place of Basic Booties

When it comes to boot trends, there are key styles that will always be “in” like pointed booties and moto silhouettes. But this season, fashion people and celebs alike continue introducing fresh boot silhouettes into their wardrobes as alternatives to basic booties, including a slighter “riskier” choice: platform boots.

Statement-making in nature, this shoe style has the ability to instantly amp up (literally) even the most simple ensemble thanks to its bold and somewhat daring design. And while heeled platforms are a favorite, there’s a variety of flatform picks out there as well (ahem, the Prada silhouettes the fashion crowd loves) to bring comfort and ease to an ensemble. And sure, these styles won’t completely replace basic booties (they're a staple), but we think more and more style-setters will gravitate toward them this season.

To highlight this fashion-forward shoe trend even more, we’re showing you how some of the trendiest people are wearing platform boots RN and also shopped out some key styles if you’re interested in upgrading your looks.

On Hailey Bieber: Bottega Veneta coat and bag; The Row Zip-Up Boots ($1290). Roll up your straight-leg jeans to really highlight the flatform boots.
On Vanessa Hudgens: Michael Kors Collection look. Platform ankle boots are especially sophisticated with a tailored ensemble.
On Billy Porter: Coach boots. This entire ensemble is especially fashion-forward, right on down to the sleek platform boots.
On Bella Hadid: Maison Margiela suit; Nodaleto boots. Square-toe boots are impossibly cool with an on-trend pinstripe suit.
You can’t go wrong with ’90s-inspired straight-leg jeans flatform boots.
Chunky shoes feel unexpected (and so right) with a suit.
We’ll see this outfit trend everywhere this season with a cropped cardigan, plaid skirt, and platforms.
A square-neck dress teamed with platform booties is effortless and chic.
Stuffing trousers into platform boots is modern and fresh.
Skinny jeans work well with mid-calf or knee-high boots to make a statement.
While just about any boot silhouette would work with this sweater-and-trousers outfit, the platform boots take it to the next level.

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...
