I've Been a Stylist for 15 Years—Here Are the 11 Brands I Can't Get Enough of RN

In our Ask a Stylist series, we're tapping a new expert each month to weigh in with all of their style insights. Return for a professional's perspective on what to know in fashion.

Stylist Sophie Lopez is known for dressing celebs like Kate Hudson and Ashley Madekwe for the red carpet. With 15 years under her belt as a celebrity stylist, she’s an expert at styling her clients in designer looks for red carpet events like the Met Gala and Emmys. When it comes to her personal style, though, she gravitates more towards independent designers, which I was curious to hear more about.

“Generally, for myself, I shop the kind of more independent smaller brands because I just find sometimes it's a bit more wearable,” Lopez explains. "Whenever I buy really fancy clothes, I don't wear them because they're too fancy and I don't want to wear them. I'm like, ‘I need to protect it’.” That’s why you’ll find plenty of cool up-and-coming labels on her Instagram that you’ll definitely want to take note of.

For Lopez, social media is a source for discovering many of the pieces in her closet. “I find loads of brands on Instagram,” she explains, “Instagram's really great for finding those little sort of lesser well-known brands that are not always sold at the big department stores.” Here, get a taste of Sophie Lopez’s personal style that’s steeped in fun prints, bold colors, and up-and-coming brands and shop the designers she can’t get enough of right now.

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...
