Rihanna's Massive Clutch Is Here to Tell You: Tiny Purses Are Out

Rihanna has spoken: tiny purses are out. [Insert dramatic gavel slam here.] On Oct. 9, the Fenty Beauty founder was spotted grabbing dinner in New York City carrying an enormous red clutch that could practically double as a duffle. The woven Bottega Veneta bag was impossible to miss as the mom of two made the sidewalk her runway in a gray Dries Van Noten coat, black Balenciaga "pantaboots," Gucci sunglasses, and a diamond necklace.

With no top handle to grab or slip over the shoulder, Rihanna wedged the oversize pouch under one arm, leaving us to wonder what on earth was hiding within. Did she stash a week's worth of takeout from the restaurant she dined at? (That's our kinda meal prep, if so.) Perhaps the singer went on a pre-dinner shopping spree to score some new 'fits for her two-month-old son Riot, or maybe she packed a hoodie to avoid stains on her fancy wool coat. With a bag of that size, all three options are plausible.

Hypothetical contents aside, Rihanna's larger-than-life clutch eschews the micro handbags that've saturated the accessories scene for the past few years. Roomy totes are making a steady comeback, popping up on the spring 2023 runways for labels like Michael Kors, Proenza Schouler, and Altuzarra. Rihanna and A$AP Rocky are clearly on board with the return of carryalls; this past week alone, the latter lugged around two different brightly colored Bottega Veneta totes while celebrating his birthday in NYC. What Rihanna and A$AP Rocky say, goes - we don't make the rules.

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...
