24 Stylish Items For a Virtual White Elephant Party

I hate to admit this, but I’m 100% a last-minute shopper for gifts. Sprinkle in a toddler who won’t stop running around and my semi-new WFH schedule, and I was seriously considering opting for gift cards this year. I’m fully aware that I’m in need of some holiday cheer, which is why I turned to a few general style experts (aka my friends at Who What Wear and a stylist from Neiman Marcus) to change my mood (and mind on the gift cards).

Bobby Schuessler and Caitie Schlisserman, two editors here at Who What Wear, are some of the most thoughtful people I know, but more importantly for the sake of a gift guide, they’re very stylish. (I secretly hope I’m on their lists this year.) I also was able to get in touch with Carolyn Thompson, a stylist for luxury goods at the Neiman Marcus in Chicago (!!), to ask about how to give a gift thoughtfully. This year more than ever, we all need a little surge of happiness, and although we may not be able to give in person, we can still make those on our lists feel special. Whether you have a virtual white elephant party on the books or you’re a newly married couple and need something special for your S.O., trust me when I tell you these three style experts helped me see the light. A tip on hosting a virtual white elephant party this year? Host it via video chat and “unwrap” gifts by revealing a photo or link. Gifts can be purchased online and sent directly to the lucky recipient. Sounds fun, right? Keep reading to see how my peers helped change my mind from gift cards to tangible gifts.

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...
