The 2021 Starter Pack: Everything You Need for a Complete Wardrobe Refresh
Welcome to the Starter Packseries, a Who What Wear column that dives deep into the seasonal trends everyone's talking about.
We finally made it to 2021 and if you ask me, that warrants a wardrobe refresh. If your style has been altered in one way or another over the course of the past year, you are not alone. Since most of our lifestyles have changed, so have the contents of our closet, and this year, we want to make sure every time you go to get dressed, you are feeling joyous and well-equipped. In year's past, a wardrobe refresh would have consisted of accessories, the latest trends, and so on and so forth, but this time, we wanted to highlight the items we truly believe will ensure you feel good about yourself every day as you tackle this new (well, not anymore) indoor lifestyle.
Featuring loungewear that should replace your stained sweatpants, dresses that will actually feel comfortable as you work from home, and fresh takes on knitwear, the 5 items ahead are small in number but mighty in ability. Adding any of the below to your wardrobe in 2021 will ensure you are feeling refreshed and prepared for the new lifestyle we're all navigating.
At this point, I know we sound like a broken record when it comes to the loungewear content, but if you're anything like me (a major procrastinator), you have yet to really invest in loungewear simply because it makes you feel good. Up until last year, a cute matching knit set seemed like more of a luxury, but now as we spend most of our days indoors working from home, these comfortable items are no longer a luxury, they are a necessity, and I can guarantee they will make getting dressed each day that much more exciting. In this day and age, no one is excited to slip into a pair of rigid or tight-fitting pants. Since the majority of our time is now spent in sweatpants or leggings, when we do opt for a more traditional choice of bottoms, really relaxed trousers seems like the best choice. Luckily, this pant trend is one of the most popular styles for spring 2021, meaning a purchase within this category will be one that is both trendy and practical. In case you haven't noticed, this starter pack has a theme and that theme has everything to do with comfort. Thanks to recent trend developments, simple and soft dresses have increased in popularity. These comfortable frocks allow you to live your life comfortably without having to sacrifice style whatsoever. Whether you're lounging around the house or are running errands, these dresses will ensure you always look like you put tons of effort into your look that day, even if you didn't. By now you've exhausted your favorite sweaters and are ready to invest in some new ones for the year ahead. My suggestion? The new multipurpose knitwear trend that's been bubbling. Brands have been churning out knit sets that can be worn more ways than one ensuring you get your money's worth as you don some of the season's hottest knitwear trends (i.e. boleros, cardigan sets, built-in scarfs). Silky and colorful separates have been making appearances in the wardrobes of fashion girls all over recently and for good reason. These eye-catching pieces look so expensive and ensure whatever outfit you're wearing has that joyous touch of something bright and pretty. From button-downs to miniskirts, this trend is one that will make all your go-to basics feel ten times more exciting. Next up, check out the return of the low-rise pant trend and shop our favorite pairs along the way.
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...
