I'm 5'4" and Hate Uncomfortable Shoes—This Is the Sandal Trend I'm Buying First

I don't think that anyone likes uncomfortable shoes, but I was once more tolerant of them. I've worked from home for almost six years and it may sound crazy, but my feet were tougher when I wore real shoes every day. I usually wear slippers to work from home and the calluses that provided armor against my shoes are long gone. So when I do wear slightly uncomfortable shoes these days, I have blisters within minutes. (When the world starts opening back up and we start wearing real shoes more often, I advise you to proceed with caution.) On another note, I'm also on the short side, which is fine, but sometimes flats just don't cut it for me. But good news: There's a spring shoe trend that addresses all of this.

As you know, flip-flops both flat and heeled have been trendy for a few seasons now, but the flip-flop trend that's poised to take center stage this season is of the flatform variety, and it's the most comfortable one yet. The flatform sole is easy to walk in (and even squishy on many pairs) and they add a bit of height. I haven't ordered myself a pair yet but I think it's my duty to after writing this story. I've narrowed it down to the Staud or Jacquemus pair. Keep scrolling to choose your favorite and see how the trend is being styled on the streets and the runway.

This outfit is such a vibe.
Flatform flip-flops are a refreshing change from strappy sandals.
This simplest, chicest spring outfit you could wish for.
Fashion people love these The Row flip-flops. Shop them for yourself below.

Could these be the next "It" Birkenstocks? Seems likely.
My jaw dropped the first time I saw these squishy platforms.
They come in black too and given the price, you might as well buy them both.
Can you see why these keep selling out?
The dream.
The braided strap is such a cool touch.
This minimal pair with its cushioned footbed had me at hello.
For pool days to come.
I found this sporty style hiding at Nordstrom.
So many sandal trends in one.
I have a hunch you could walk for miles in these.
The square toe makes these so modern and cool.
I promise you'll wear this casual pair a ton.

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...
