How My Boyfriend and I Custom-Designed Matching Suits For a Wedding

In the past, I've coordinated wedding-guest looks with a partner simply by matching my dress to his tie. In my experience, the task can be frustrating - especially when some dudes couldn't quite grasp the concept of color clashing - but appearing in sync with your date is possible. Never did I consider the idea of his-and-her matching suits until I scrolled past an Indochino ad on Instagram and completely fell in love with a powder-pink blazer-and-miniskirt combo, replete with a modest leg slit and styled with metallic pointed-toe booties. Maybe it was my Barbiecore inclination, but I immediately had to have it.

I've worn suits before, but never one molded to my every curve, with my measurements taken into consideration.

As the number one made-to-measure retailer in North America, offering clients quality, bespoke tailoring at their fingertips in more than 50 showrooms across North America, Indochino is at the forefront of personalization in retail - and the price point is more affordable than high-end luxury, with suits of the same caliber starting at $549. It takes only three weeks for a garment to arrive at your doorstep after having your pick from an extensive range of fabrics, cuts, and colors.

While my boyfriend and I chose to design our suits in person at the NYC flagship store on Madison Avenue, you can also make all your selections online as an easy alternative. This option has established the brand as a go-to for many a groomsman. Even if the bridal party is limited to wearing navy, for example, there are an incredible amount of ways to achieve the look. You can choose a jacket with one vent at the back or two, decide on any number of buttons below the lapel, and even monogram the inner lining. Believe me when I say the options get far more involved from there.

Ahead, read my review of the full suit customization process at Indochino.

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...
