I Found the Ultimate Coastal-Grandmother Straw Handbag at Walmart For $26

I'll admit it: I've been eyeing designer raffia handbags recently. The thing is, however, I'm having a really hard time justifying $100 and sometimes $1000 price tags. (For context, a donkey tried to eat a straw handbag of mine once, and I'll never forget it - evidence here). I generally try not to dish out too much money on accessories, so I'm no stranger to the new arrivals section at Walmart - which I urge you to check out if it's been a while since you've done so.

On a recent perusal of the site, I came across the Scoop Large Straw Crescent Crossbody Bag ($28, originally $34) and was drawn to its crescent shape and cute scarf detail. Sadly, it was sold out at the time (no major surprise there), so I went with the next best option: the Scoop Small Straw Crescent Crossbody Bag ($26, originally $32) in the Natural shade. From the moment I hit "confirm order," I could already see myself teaming it with a white dress or a button-down and jeans.

I was really pleased when this bag arrived on my doorstep. The inside is surprisingly spacious; I was able to fit my phone, wallet, sunglasses, hand sanitizer, and lip gloss, with room to spare. It even has a zippered pocket inside for those small, easy-to-misplace items you want to be extra cautious about. Oh, and the crossbody strap is removable, which is nice if you plan to alternate between wearing it over your shoulder and carrying it in your hand.

One thing to note: Walmart's description of the product states that the scarf is removable, but it . . . isn't. It's not exactly a big deal if you like the color you chose, but if you want to take it off, you might want to reconsider or, perhaps, consider a different hue (maybe black or pink?). No matter which you choose, I think you'll get a ton of compliments - maybe even more than you'd get with a designer bag.

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...
