My Mom Told Me She's Retiring These 4 Items (and Buying Into These 5 Trends)

My mother, Nancy, has been going through a few rounds of closet clean outs over the last few months to clear out items she isn't wearing as much. While she's definitely being strategic about her purchases these days, she's using this purge session to make room for a few fall items she's had her eye on. In fact, she actually messaged me a few of the pieces she's personally over in her own wardrobe and wants to retire at the moment. With said messages, she also shared with me the items she's seen around that she's interested in buying into instead.

For the most part, the fall trends she's feeling are modern yet feel timeless at the same time to fit within her more classic style. They're also pieces that will probably have longevity and will hang around for a while. Keep scrolling to get a sense of the items my mom is retiring (complete with her testimonials) and some trends she's ready to try as showcased on a range of our favorite fashion people. You'll also uncover inspired shopping picks for each in case you're interested in testing out any of the looks coming your way too.

"Those older knee-high boots I have that are a bit beat up have had their moment. I'm loving the chunkier Chelsea boots I've been seeing. Seems chic but also actually comfortable."
"Maybe it's because the colder weather is coming, but my super-cropped, faded jeans are going to be stored away. I actually want to try some of those loose-cut trousers for something sophisticated (and comfy), as well as classic straight-leg and bootcut jeans."
"I think it's time to let go of the super lightweight long cardigans I used to wear. They don't really add anything special to my style, and I like the shorter cardigans these days that are a bit roomier or longer styles that are a bit thicker."
"I used to wear fitted knit blazers often as a way to make my jeans and tee outfits feel fancier. While I'll still keep them around for a bit, I'm still more interested in the slouchier blazers that feel modern."

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...
