The New Skirt Trend That Is Suddenly Dominating My Instagram Feed RN

Seemingly out of nowhere, I've noticed a certain skirt trend begin to bubble up, and I think you'll be surprised to find out that it's actually more classic than it is trendy. Plaid skirts, in particular, are having a moment right now among the fashion set, a trend that emerged on Instagram and can now be found at retailers high and low.

Now, I know what you're thinking, and yes, plaid skirts have a preppy, school-uniform vibe that can't be denied, but they're also more versatile than you might think. I'm about to prove it to you with the below outfits. Some of these skirts definitely go for the school-uniform look, coming pleated in navy-and-red check print. Fashion girls are riffing on this motif, styling them with oversize button-down shirts, chunky knits, and tall boots. For a fresher take, though, a number of pastel versions with a '90s appeal are also emerging.

Below, see 11 unexpected looks to adopt from fashion people, and shop cool plaid skirts from a range of brands.

Find a sweeter way to wear plaid; I dare you. Paired with a cute cardigan, plaid skirts in a pastel hue give off a bit of a '90s feel.
Calling all Clueless fans! Wear your skirt with a button-down shirt and platforms to channel Dionne and Cher like it's 1995.

Tie or no tie, a plaid skirt transitions well into fall with the addition of a cool leather jacket.
You can never go wrong with a crisp button-down shirt—also a trending basic this summer—and this simple look is proof.

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...
