It's True—Everyone Will Wish They Bought This Top When It Inevitably Sells Out
"I'm absolutely sure of a few things in life, one of them being the fate of a certain top I just stumbled upon. It's going to sell out. If you know me, you're probably aware that I make these sorts of predictions regularly, and about 99% of the time, I'm right. It comes with the territory—the "eight-year tenure as a fashion editor who studies shopping data all day" territory, that is. So it's best to pay attention when I find something new that raises every one of my warning flags. A sellout awaits, and anyone interested in benefiting beforehand should be ready."

Forget Jeans—These New 2025 Pant Trends Are So Much Classier
"As soon as chilly weather hits, denim becomes one of the first things I reach for when getting dressed. When the instinct kicked in again this year, I was surprised to see that classic jeans were (ever so slightly) losing favor. That's not to say that everyone has decided against them, but I spotted a number of even chicer alts on the spring/summer runways that are set to have a considerable impact on 2025 style.
Silk! Flares! Pleats! The collections were flooded with beautiful and classy new pant trends that promise to bring a healthy dose of polish and elegance to the wardrobes of even the staunchest denim loyalists among us.

Styled underneath long coats and midi dresses, leggings that zip at the ankles peeked out where we'd otherwise see bare legs, and it gave the looks a cool, sporty tone that feels more forward than the dress-over-pants combos we saw throughout the early 2000s."

Image from Who What Wear
"With a new year comes the desire for a whole new wardrobe. Trust me, I know the feeling. But also trust me that giving away everything in your closet only to buy a whole heap of new items you'll probably donate again next January is not the answer. Revamping your sartorial rotation calls for strategy, and I have a few that I like to employ every year around this same time. My favorite: Getting out of your jeans, trousers, and leggings comfort zone and investing in a few cool, 2025 skirt trends that can make your wardrobe appear wholly different than it was in 2024 without all the hassle of selling off its entire contents to make room for a fresh fashion fleet. Skirts are powerful like that. I'd know—at this point, they're practically all I wear.
Fortunately for anyone who's ready to follow my lead, this year's skirt trends are already set to be some of the best—like ever. On the S/S 25 runways, designers got creative in the skirting department, introducing interesting textures, patterns, and silhouettes, all capable of turning what would have been a (sorry) boring T-shirt and jeans or trousers look into an ensemble worth showing off again and again. With any of the below seven skirt trends, your entire 2025 wardrobe will look as good as new, with no major other tweaks required. Scroll down to find the ones that fit your new-year aesthetic."

Here’s Everything to Style with Winter Dresses
"Getting dressed in a cold-weather outfit to face ice-cold temperatures can be challenging. Multiple layers of clothing are often involved: Jeans shimmied over thermal pants or T-shirts and long-sleeve base layers shoved under sweaters. There's so much involved that you might need to pause and catch your breath after assembling your outfit. But there’s a more straightforward, streamlined solution to getting dressed for the elements. I’m talking about the best winter dresses that practically style themselves.
Style a great dress with the latest boot trends and a warm jacket or coat, and you will have a foolproof blueprint for a capsule wardrobe collection.
I’ve handpicked various street-style-inspired winter dress outfits, from casual knit styles that you can pair with teddy coats and sneakers to upscale satin dresses that look great with sleek blazers and heels.
Late-Night Look
For your next evening outing, take a figure-hugging dress for a spin. Complete the look with a floor-sweeping cream coat and a pair of slingback heels, and this getup will become your new going-out outfit."
