Margot Robbie Wore the Only Trend I'd Ditch Skinny Jeans For
We know our readers love reading about skinny jeans—how to style them, where to buy them, which brands celebrities are wearing, etc. But if you want an upgrade for a night out, look no further than satin wide-leg trousers à la Margot Robbie. The actress hosted a Chanel dinner at the Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles last night celebrating the just-launched Gabrielle Chanel Essence fragrance and campaign, and she wore our new favorite red carpet combo to do so.
Eschewing the typical red carpet dress, Robbie wore beautiful wide-leg pants with Chanel's version of a going-out top: an asymmetrical silk ruffled masterpiece. Ashley Olsen, Kate Middleton, and Diane Keaton are just some of the celebrities who are also on board with the wide-leg trend, and they've all convinced me that bigger is truly better. Trust us, your skinny jeans can wait until next season. Scroll down to see what Margot Robbie and other celebrities wore to the Chanel dinner and shop our wide-leg picks.

Next, Anna Wintour says this is the top accessory of fall 2019.
Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
