5 Brands I Wore Before I Became a Fashion Editor—and Still Wear Now
What were you wearing 10 years ago? It's safe to say many of us would be embarrassed by our fashion sense a decade ago, but if you look carefully, I bet you'd notice some common themes between your past and present wardrobes. For me, I realized that I still buy some of the tried-and-true brands I used to wear before I became a fashion editor. (I had to look at my LinkedIn to confirm, but it's been about six and a half years since I first nabbed a full-time editor job.)
Right now, I'm obsessed with fashion-girl brands such as Ganni, Staud, Maje, and Dôen, but I definitely haven't always been able to afford these labels. Plus, I was too shy to experiment with trends when I was younger, and I hadn't really developed a sense of style yet. It was all about basics back then. That said, I'm never one to turn down a good Madewell tee or Topshop dress in 2020, and I still rely on these labels for affordable pieces. Scroll down to shop the five brands I wore before becoming a fashion editor and still wear now.
I'll be the first to admit that sometimes Free People gets a little too literal with the boho theme, but that hasn't stopped me from buying from the brand for many years. My two go-to pieces from Free People are romantic blouses and band tees. What I'm wearing: Free People blouse; J.Crew jeans; Dôen shoes; Montunas bagTopshop definitely has a knack for interpreting the most popular trends in wearable and affordable ways. This photo above is about five years old, but Topshop continues to make super-cute summer dresses just like this one. What I'm wearing: Topshop dress; Cotton On hatAs a born-and-bred San Diegan, my closet has been stacked with Vans for decades. My favorite styles are the Authentic Sneakers and Old Skool Sneakers. Even though I wore them every single day in high school, I still haven't tired of Vans. What I'm wearing: Madeworn T-shirt; J.Crew jeans; Tory Burch bag; Vans sneakersWhile I sadly no longer get the student discount at Madewell, I still turn to the retailer for quality basics and pretty dresses, blouses, and swimwear. What I'm wearing: Vintage blazer; Madewell T-shirt and jeans; Dôen shoesSuperga is another brand that I purchase over and over. I'm obsessed with the Cotu Classic Sneakers in white, which I've thrown in the washing machine and lived to tell the tale. What I'm wearing: Maison Alma coat; J Brand jeans; Casa Chiqui bag; Splendid turtleneck; Superga sneakers
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...
