The Telfar Bag Makes a Priceless Cameo on "Abbott Elementary"

On "Abbott Elementary," one man's trash is another man's Telfar. Quinta Brunson illustrated as much in the latest episode that aired on Feb. 8 titled "Valentine's Day." In it, her character, Janine, is underwhelmed to receive the coveted handbag. In fact, she isn't even aware of the brand's existence despite it being one of the most popular Black-owned brands worn by celebrities like Beyoncé and Rihanna.

The fashion cameo comes when Maurice, or "Mo," played by Vince Staples, attempts to woo Janine by gifting her the bag for Valentine's Day. And though Telfars are notoriously difficult to obtain, Janine didn't seem to understand the appeal, mistaking the trendy tote for a shopping bag. "What's wrong, you don't like it?" Mo asked Janine as she dug through the shiny white Telfar. "No, I just . . . I think you forgot to put the gift in the gift bag," she replied. Staples quickly corrected her, explaining that the bag was the gift, visibly confused by her nonchalance.

Still unfazed, Janine began dumping pens from her classroom inside. "Careful, careful!" a horrified Mo exclaimed. "Put the caps on those pens, girl. That bag is expensive." But as it became clear later on, Janine had actually hoped to receive a lego flower bouquet for Valentine's Day, like the one her coworker Gregory got for his girlfriend. The purse, while a generous gift, just wasn't her taste. (More for the rest of us!)

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...
