How One Fashion Editor Takes On Spring's Biggest Trends

Since starting to work from home, I’ve been forced to take a long, hard look at what I have in my wardrobe. The verdict is in: I own way too many white button-down shirts. Since making this realization, I’ve been on the hunt to find some updated (but still kind of classic-feeling) pieces my wardrobe needs, specifically ones that will last me well beyond this season. As always, I hit up my colleagues at Who What Wear to help me hone in on exactly what I should be shopping, for spring trends and otherwise.

Kristen Nichols, the managing editor here at Who What Wear, has the type of sartorial sensibility I'm always complimenting. Her forever-classic style is polished, sleek, and always a touch trendy. I knew she was the girl for my hunt to find key wardrobe pieces (Levi's and basics included), and naturally, she delivered. Here are the three outfit formulas she sent me that have become her, and now my, favorite spring looks.

I’ve never been much of a shorts girl, but when Kristen sent me this white-on-white outfit as one of her key spring looks, she had me swayed. I love the way she switches up the monochromatic blazer-and-shorts pairing with a beige collared sweater (a major trending item this season) and a pair of gray sneakers. In my opinion, the high-waisted shorts truly make this look, so the under-$100 pair will be in my wardrobe in three to five business days.
Another major trending style this season? Padded-shoulder tank tops and T-shirts. I’ve had a top similar to this one in my cart for a few weeks now, but I’ve been debating if I should take a chance on it or not. Kristen, of course, made up my mind when she showed me how she styled it with these dark-wash straight-leg jeans. With some gold jewelry (a favorite accessory of mine) and a pair of heeled mules, this outfit has the perfect mix of on-trend pieces and classic style.
Unless you’ve taken a really long break from social media, you know how insanely popular knit sets are right now in the fashion space. Kristen styled hers with a pair of black wide-leg jeans from Levi’s, creating a transitional look I’ll be re-creating on any random chilly days that come my way.

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...
