Rosie Huntington-Whiteley Taught Me 4 Genius Ways to Style a Blazer

Instagram is easily one of the places where I find most fashion inspiration. More than anything else, Instagram inspires me by introducing me to new brands and new ways of styling pieces I already have in my closet. Not only is it an instant way to see what fashion insiders are wearing across the globe, but it also provides access inside the wardrobes of celebs.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is one celeb whose style I personally identify with, so I’m constantly looking to the outfits she posts on Instagram. While she has a closet brimming with covetable pieces from Bottega Veneta, she also mixes in affordable pieces from Zara like the bodysuit that went viral last year. On top of that, many of her looks are built around wardrobe staples, so her Instagram is a goldmine for cool styling tips to make basics like a blazer feel fresh. Here, I’m test-driving four of Rosie Huntington-Whiteley’s genius blazer outfits. Go on to see my take on her chic looks.

A year ago, I may have worn an oversize blazer with heels, but by adding a pair of knee-high boots it instantly feels like a fresher way to style it. They add a sense of sleekness to the pieces layered underneath, which is something I immediately picked up on from Rosie Huntington-Whiteley's outfit here.
Like RHW, I mixed shades of brown and black but opted for a turtleneck in place of a T-shirt. This look has proven to be one of my most-worn office outfit formulas that I rely on again and again when I can't figure out what to wear.
I promise, an oversize blazer is a must so add one to your shopping cart if you haven't already.
This is one of the exact basics I wear most.
Perfect for layering underneath knee-high boots.
Yep, knee-high boots are an essential.
Here's the bag I use practically every single day (snapped in the photo above).
Yes, pantsuits can easily transition to the evening with a few easy styling tweaks. I love how RHW added a bra top underneath hers here. Lingerie-inspired pieces and bra tops will be one of the biggest trends for spring 2020, and this is a very wearable way to try it out.
I took inspiration from RHW's look, adding a bandeau top underneath one of my favorite pantsuits. While I would normally wear this to the office with a T-shirt, switching it out for a bra top makes it read as nighttime-ready.
The pantsuit I'm wearing is sold out but I have my eye on this one from up-and-coming brand REMAIN Birger Christensen.
Here, shop the matching pants.
Since I picked mine up, I discovered just how versatile a bandeau top is.
I love the wide fit of these.
Next time, I'm adding in some cool chunky jewelry.
If you're looking for an alternative to the pantsuit, trying a matching skirt suit set. This exact version is still available to shop ahead.
Act quickly to order the Tibi set RHW wore that's on sale now.
Here's the matching skirt.
Layer a bodysuit underneath.
Porte & Paire is a cool new shoe brand on my radar that would be perfect to pair with this look.
I always look to Brinker & Eliza for great affordable jewelry finds.
If you're looking for a way to make an all-black outfit feel a little cooler, simply add a tan blazer like RHW. 
Proving that one blazer can work in different ways, I wore the jacket from my skirt suit set for the look here—this time, layered over a simple all-black look.
Frankie Shop is one of my go-to brands for excellent suiting.
Scoop neck tops are the silhouette to invest in right now.
RHW wore split hem pants in her looks, so I'll be trying these out next time.
These LPA heels just dropped and are so good.
I have similar rings that I stack on the regular but have my eye on this stunning piece.

Next, shop my spring shopping picks from Nordstrom, Shopbop, and Net-a-Porter.

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...
