I Predict These 5 New Trends Won't Last Long, And These 7 Have Staying Power

The fashion trend cycle can be fickle. One month, a certain silhouette feels relevant and the next it's become saturated. And though I'm a firm believer that you should wear whatever you please at all times, I'm also a firm believer in falling in love with a new trend or two along the way. The last few months have procured a handful of fresh trends that while shiny and new, also have a lot of staying power thanks to their versatility. Reworked gold hoop earrings, wide-leg jeans, and a handful of other pieces ahead are worth adding to your shopping list. And for the sake of cleaning out your closet, I also rounded up five trends that may be worth taking to your local Goodwill (provided they aren't serving you anymore).

Below, five trends I predict won't last long and seven that I suspect have some real staying power. Discover the trends, shop the picks, you know the drill.

Flip flops have received the high-end stamp of approval from brands near and far and while they'll likely work for this summer, something tells us the idea of a pair of flip flops at a designer price point won't be in favor for long. 

Step aside, skinny jeans it's time to let a more comfortable denim silhouette take the lead. Wide legs have entered the mainstream and in rises and washes that feel especially flattering and easy to wear.

If you've paid attention to street style in the last six months then you're already well acquainted with the pants-tucked-into-boots trend. While this look is quite chic, it's probably so much of a statement that it won't stick around forever.

Vests have ebbed and flowed in the trend circuit for centuries plus designers have served up chic iterations in the last couple of seasons that make this layering piece well worth the investment.

As much as we adore a leather Bermuda short right now, the silhouette is admittedly a tough sell to those who are used to their classic blue jeans and trousers. 

There's something so enduringly stylish about a leather blazer. Thankfully, there are plenty of elevated vegan options on the market these days and the piece can transition between seasons seamlessly.

Multicolor, oft-bedazzled hair barrettes had their moment in the spotlight but it seems these whimsical accessories are losing steam.

It's unsurprising that the chunky gold hoop trend has staying power; the jewelry staple goes with everything and instantly brightens up your face.

Another hair accessory that may not weather the storm is the padded headband. Though great for a statement party look, it doesn't feel quite as versatile as its non-cushioned cousin (the regular headband). 

Ruched details add an artisanal element to whatever piece you find it on—purses, pumps, dresses, and so on. It's a classic design element that'll never go out of style.
Similar to ruching, quilted design details give accessories a handmade vibe that always looks sleek. Wear now, wear often.
A croc-effect texture always looks more expensive than it is, which is cause enough to add to your wardrobe for many years to come.

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...
