I've mentioned this before, but I've always been a skinny/straight-leg jean girl. For some reason, wide-leg silhouettes have always made me nervous because I've convinced myself I'm too short to wear a leg opening that doesn't graze my ankle. That was until I discovered the bevy of wide-leg jeans Levi's has to offer and took the plunge to try on a pair. The result? I'm basically mad at myself because I've been missing out on this extra-chic jean style this entire time.
My co-workers on both coasts have been nailing the wide-leg-jean game for quite some time, so naturally, I looked to them for some guidance on all the ways to wear the jean style, and they did not disappoint. From NYC-girls’ lace tops and pink bags to the tie-dye essentials worn by L.A. girls, here’s what they (and I!) wore.
I'm excited to style a pair of black wide-leg jeans the way my super-stylish co-worker Lauren did this season. With a lace top and a white bag, this look screams NYC street style.I'm taking notes from my NYC counterpart Michaela when we're ready to head back into the office. What I really love about this look is how she styled her Ribcage Wide Leg jeans with sneakers rather than a heeled shoe. It's practical and stylish—a perfect spring look.When I'm ready to take the plunge and go full wide leg, I'll be looking to Jasmine for some inspiration. Our New York-based Audience Engagement Editor styled her High Loose jeans with a pair of crystal-embellished heels and an always-classic white button-down blouse. Want to add a pop of color? A pink bag will do.If you're ever looking for Nicole, just keep an eye out for someone clicking around in a pair of Chanel flats. The L.A.-based social-media strategist and dear friend of mine picked the Balloon Leg jean in a dark wash, and because she's petite, the jeans fit a little longer on her. Nicole's style tends to be more casual and effortless, so she paired her jeans with a cropped tie-dye shirt and an oversize shoulder bag.Okay, here I am debuting my first-ever (!!!) wide-leg jean purchase. What I love about these Levi's Balloon Jeans is that they fit your hips much like straight-leg jeans do, but you still get the wide-leg silhouette. It's the best of both worlds, and the perfect wide-leg for beginners like me. I wore mine with a puff-sleeve blouse and strappy heels.
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...

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...
