I have to be honest, I’m more of a flat shoe girl than anything else, but on the odd chance that I do throw on a heel, I can guarantee you it will be a black one. Polished, put together and most importantly, expensive-looking at any price point, I’ve only ever invested in black heels. Well, that was until now, when I recently spotted all of the stylish celebs I follow in a heel colour that I at one time wrote off as dated. Enter the white heel trend.

At one point considered “tacky” and “cheap-looking” by fashion insiders, white heels are officially making a comeback for 2026. Recently, I spotted Zendaya styling a white lace dress and long coat with tonal court heels, proving that this once dated colour is not only back as a key shoe colour trend for spring 2026, but also that it can look elegant, especially when worn with other neutrals. And she’s not the only one.

Both Halle Bailey and Jasmine Tookes have also been spotted sporting white heels with their expensive-looking spring outfits. There’s just something about this colour that feels fresh and elevated for 2026, but as a neutral it remains endlessly versatile and polished. And with the weather finally starting to warm up here in the UK, I’ve been majorly inspired to invest in a pair of white heels for all of the upcoming events I’ve RSVP’d yes to.

If you, too, are considering adding a pair of white heels to your spring outfit rotations, then look no further. Below, I’ve collated an edit of the best white heels that I’ve spotted on my search to suit every budget.

I’ve always had a penchant for an all-black outfit. It’s my go-to when I’m short on time, low on inspiration, or just craving something easy and put-together. Time and again, I find myself reaching for various black staples and styling them with one another, and every time, it works. After relying on this monochrome formula so often, I’ve picked up a few tricks to make it feel all the more fresh and refined. And my absolute favourite is swapping classic black trousers in cotton, linen, or wool for a glossy satin pair.

It’s a simple change, but it makes a world of difference, and I'm not the only one to have caught on to its outfit-elevating properties. In fact, just this morning I spotted model Jasmine Tookes styling the simple formula. She wore a slinky pair of black satin trousers with a strapless black top, delicate strappy sandals, and a The Row Margaux bag, creating a monochrome moment that felt anything but flat. Her outfit exuded polish without falling short on dimension—proving that even the most neutral palette can be packed with interest, if the right fabrications are involved.

Imbued with a lustrous finish that catches the light, these trousers instantly make an outfit feel more considered. They offer the same ease as your usual tailored pair but with an elevated twist. As Tooke’s look shows, they work beautifully with a sleek strapless top, but they’re just as chic worn with a classic black tank or a billowing blouse for evening.

Summer might finally have arrived, but my wardrobe still seems to be stuck in last season. Crying out for some summer energy, this month I'm planning on treating it to a mini makeover by means of introducing some fresh, summer-ready shades.

To kick-start my quest, naturally, I've looked to my favourite celebrities for inspiration, and of course, they delivered it in droves. Creating elegant ensembles with the prettiest colour palettes, each look I found delivers summer spirit, whilst retaining the expensive-looking energy that I always aim to have running through my wardrobe.

Whilst the outfits I've been inspired by might look expensive because of their designer labels attached, you can absolutely emulate them on a tighter budget thanks to the elegant and premium-looking colour choices in each look.

If you too are keen to treat your collection to a small summer upgrade, read on to discover the four expensive-looking colour trends I'm stealing from the following four celebrities this summer.

DISCOVER THE FOUR EXPENSIVE-LOOKING SUMMER SHADES CELEBRITIES LOVE:

1. ROSIE HUNTINGTON-WHITELEY + BUTTER YELLOW

Style Note: The butter-yellow colour trend has been huge this summer and for good reason. Offering a more playful alternative to the cream and beige shades we so often reach for when styling a neutral base, this fresher shade lends a summery feel to any look it touches. Layering well with rich browns, deep blacks and sparkling golds, the butter yellow colour is the elevated summer trend that celebrities have been reaching for on repeat this season.

2. KENDALL JENNER + LILAC

Style Notes: Like a breath of fresh air, this pretty colour trend lends lively energy to any outfit via its charming and pleasing tone. Styling well with dark burgundy shades, the lilac colour trend looks all the more summer-ready when worn with bright whites or light creams. Ideal for styling for long summer evenings, this elegant colour will give your looks the warm-weather edge they've been calling out for.

SHOP THE LILAC COLOUR TREND:

3. JASMINE TOOKES + OLIVE GREEN

Style Note: Rich and moody, the chic colour trend might not spring to mind when conjuring the idea of a summer palette. Whilst it's not the sunshine yellow that you may have expected, this rich-looking shade offers an earthy and grounded tone that layers well with jewels and rich shades for a dynamic outfit that can see you through the entire season.

SHOP THE OLIVE GREEN COLOUR TREND:

4. LAURA HARRIER + CHOCOLATE BROWN

Style Notes: Be it summer, autumn, winter or spring, the chocolate brown colour trend remains one of my go-to shades across the year. Naturally opulent and expensive looking, you can give the rich shade a summer edge by pairing it with a lighter tone such as a peachy shade, or vivid orange to conjure a vibrant warm-weather feeling.

The humble wide-leg trouser is a wardrobe staple not to be underestimated. Dress them up with a smart cotton button-down and you have an elevated weekday look that will make you feel polished and poised all day. Or style them with a graphic tee and some chunky sandals for a laidback outfit that feels just as comfortable as your favourite pyjamas.

I'll sing the praises of a great pair of wide-leg trousers day and night, and I'm not the only one who reaches for them most days of the week. Although they're equipped with generous budgets, in-demand stylists and front-row seats at major runway shows, celebrities also come back to this essential item time and again.

As a lover of wide-leg trousers with a penchant for keeping up with the best celebrity looks, below, I've chronicled four of my favourite celebrity wide-leg trouser outfits to keep my styling inspiration topped up. From Jennifer Lawrence to Jasmine Tookes, read on to discover how the celebrities are styling their wide-leg trousers this season.

1. JENNIFER LAWRENCE

Style Notes: I always look forward to seeing Jennifer Lawrence's red carpet looks, but it's her off-duty style that I really can't get enough of. Selecting relaxed items such as slouchy button-downs and wide-leg trousers, the actress always manages to craft ensembles that feel comfortable, wearable and ever so chic, and the errand-running look pictured here captures this essence perfectly.

2. ROSIE HUNTINGTON-WHITELEY:

Style Notes: I've done the research, and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley's trouser collection is a near-even split of skin-hugging leggings and ultra-wide-leg trousers. Pairing her cream-coloured pair with the matching vest, she smartened up the billowy silhouette in the chicest way possible.

3. JASMINE TOOKES

Style Notes: Demonstrating the versatile nature of black wide-leg trousers, model Jasmine Tookes brought a decidedly elegant edge to her styling here. Wearing hers with a structured coat that featured oversized shoulders, Tookes' incorporation of a tailored element helped to balance the casual feel of the slouchy trousers. If you're looking to give your favourite pair an elevated twist, look no further than this simple styling hack.

SHOP THE LOOK:

4. LAURA HARRIER

Style Notes: Styling a relaxed outfit you'll find me replicating all season, Harrier opted for a pair of trending wide-leg linen trousers to form the base of her look. The actress gave her lightweight trousers a cosier edge with a warm navy knit, creating a spring-ready outfit that you'll never grow tired of.

We're only a couple of months into 2024, and already we've been treated to enough killer outfit inspiration to see us through the next 12 months and then some. From the S/S '24 runways to the beginning of awards season, designers, influencers and street style stars alike have come up with new ways to reinvent old favourites, but one group we always look to for fashion pointers is of course, the best dressed celebs. 

As much as we may want to believe that celebrities are people just like us, the truth is that they have the means to access some of the most exciting pieces way ahead of them landing in stores, so what they wear on the red carpet and in off-duty outfits now is invariably what the rest of us will be able to get our hands on in a matter of months. But who has the most coveted wardrobe in Hollywood? I asked my fellow editors to decide. 

In the spirit of the fantasy football draft (go, sports!), we sifted through scores of A-list players, knocking out entrants with each round until we came up with six power players who make up the ultimate lineup. From well-tailored popstars to effortlessly chic actresses, these are the celebs who our team would happily swap wardrobes with.

Keep scrolling see the winners and shop their style whilst you decide which team you're rooting for in 2024.

TEAM ONE: JENNIFER LAWRENCE

"I'm always excited when there's a new sighting of minimalist queen Jennifer Lawrence. Her pared-back style tends to focus on quality and cut, and no matter the combination, her outfits always have a timeless, chic, 'anti-trend' appeal. These days, you can always find her with an It bag in tow, and if she isn't the perfect investment-wardrobe icon, I don't know who is," says Florrie Alexander, acting affiliates editor.

SHOP JENNIFER LAWRENCE'S STYLE:

TEAM TWO: ZOË KRAVITZ

"Zoë Kravitz will always be the ultimate cool-girl for me because every outfit she wears looks so effortless yet somehow so put-together. Her style is just so multifaceted: a vintage '50s shift dress here, a print clash there, red carpet glamour one day and ripped jeans and a biker jacket the next. She's just the laid-back fashion girl who can do it all, and I can't help but fall for everything she steps out in," says Rebecca Rhys Evans, senior fashion and beauty editor, branded content. 

SHOP ZOË KRAVITZ'S STYLE:

TEAM THREE: VICTORIA BECKHAM

"Now, be honest—when it comes to celebrity style, there's no one quite like Victoria Beckham. Who else could wear platform heels to the airport? Or be able to poke fun at themselves with a slogan tee? Or singlehandedly transform WAG culture from front-page tabloid fodder to front-row invitee? Transforming from the chicest Spice Girl to a well-respected designer, Beckham's everyday wardrobe is an exercise in how to look expensive at all times. You'll never catch her in jeans and trainers; she's always tailored to perfection—motivation for those of us who always fall back on the quickest thing to hand to instead take a little extra time getting ready in the morning. And when in doubt, a pair of wide-leg trousers or a pencil skirt are always sure to rise to the occasion," says Remy Farrell, fashion editor.

SHOP VICTORIA BECKHAM'S STYLE:

TEAM FOUR: LAURA HARRIER

"There's no denying that over the past few years, Laura Harrier has earned herself the title of one of the chicest celebs in Hollywood. Stylish but with a girl-next-door kind of charm, Harrier often heads out in looks that are simple and polished, but with a fresh, trend-forward touch. Add in a hefty dose of covetable It buys and some Parisian influences, and you have yourself a celebrity wardrobe that not only is incredibly chic, but actually easy to emulate and wear, too. Opt for classic pieces like French-girl flats, elegant blouses and pretty dresses to steal her style," says Poppy Nash, managing editor. 

SHOP LAURA HARRIER'S STYLE:

TEAM FIVE: ELSA HOSK

"Model Elsa Hosk has impeccable off-duty taste (and clearly, the budget and connections to match); often tapping into key designer looks before any other celebrity. I particularly like her more sophisticated and 'grown-up' looks in tonal hues with classy accessories and an overall feeling of being very uptown. I'm not 100% sold on the "mob wife" aesthetic, but I can get behind Hosk's penchant for long coats, heels and an impressive collection of skirts (of varying lengths). She's the very definition of 'loud luxury'," says Hannah Almassi, editor-in-chief.

SHOP ELSA HOSK'S STYLE:

TEAM SIX: JASMINE TOOKES

"Jasmine Tookes' style first caught my eye a few years ago, and I've been trying to channel her glossy aesthetic ever since. As well as having one of the best collections of Hèrmes Birkins I've ever seen, it's her styling flair that really sets her apart, dressing with an intuition that's down to nature, not nurture. Honing her skills over the years, Tookes' outfits whisper luxury without ever having to try too hard—her blazer-and-jeans outfits look as though the two pieces are meant to be worn together, and the way she casually knots a sweater around her shoulders or waist is always just so. Sticking to a palette of neutrals, the model dresses with the assurance that everything just works, giving her the bandwidth to try new silhouettes and pairings. She recently wore an off-the-shoulder top with wide-leg trousers—another one of my favourite looks from her," says Maxine Eggenberger, deputy editor.

Next Up: The Only Spring/Summer 2024 Fashion Trends I'm Bothered About

When you love fashion, you tend to fall into one of two categories: you're either a shoe person or a bag person (with a few outliers who take on both as their specialist subjects). For me, it's handbags. Big, small, top-handle, clutch—I'm infatuated with this particular accessory. In every outfit I see someone wear, my eyes immediately go to the bag, and upon a recent scroll through some celebrity outfits I'd saved, I noticed something: so many of them included handbags by the same brand. 

Most designers will dream of creating a cult piece that becomes so iconic it is reissued time and again; Gucci's Jackie, Dior's Lady Dior or Chanel's Classic Flap Bag are easy examples, but few will make one handbag that truly leaves its mark on fashion history. Fewer still enjoy the success, repertoire and celebrity loyalty of Bottega Veneta. 

So what does it take to create an It bag? It's a rare harmony of design, quality—and most importantly—recognition. That's not to say that there aren't classic tote bags on my dream wish list that would most definitely be a smart investment. But a real standout piece needs distinction. To reach cult status, the bag should be recognisable from a mile off. Some rely on shape, like Loewe's origami-inspired Puzzle bag, whilst others depend on their logo—everyone knows Chanel's double C emblem when they see it.

But for Bottega Veneta, it's different. The brand's bags are distinct without logos or branding emblazoned. Instead, their recognition largely comes from the intricately woven intrecciato leather that has become embedded in the Bottega brand since its inception in the 1960s, putting the exquisite craftspersonship of each creation at the centre of each of its It bags. Yes, that's It bags, plural. 

To create a legacy of handbags, Bottega focuses on key elements like signature fabric, distinct silhouettes and the timeless appeal of each creation. New styles aren't simply launched for the sake of newness, but to cover the practicalities of a handbag collection. There's the Arco tote for those who like to carry a little more, whilst the Jodie acts as an easy everyday piece in a flurry of different shades, and the recently added Andiamo, which can transform from handheld to shoulder bag with the adjustable strap.

Bottega Veneta's Pouch is a day-to-night piece that practically revitalised clutch bags for the modern day, whilst the Sardine has a more playful edge with its sleek metal handle, though it still encapsulates the hushed-luxury feel of the rest of the line-up. Plus, each is available in a range of sizes and colours to ensure these treasured bags stay true to the wearer's personal preferences. In short, if you're looking to invest in a forever handbag, you truly can't go wrong with Bottega Veneta.

Style Notes: Staring with one of the most frequently spotted bags: the Jodie. Identifiable by its half-moon shape and knot-handle detail, the Jodie serves as the ideal everyday companion thanks to its relaxed shape and how easy it is to carry on the shoulder, in the hand or as a clutch.

On Jasmine Tookes: Bottega Veneta Pouch Large Leather Clutch Bag (£2600)

Style Notes: Inspired by one of the brand's previous styles, the Pouch hit stores in 2018 and brought clutch bags back to the fashion fore. Even the iterations that don't feature woven leather are instantly recognisable by their dumpling shape.

4. Sofia Richie with the Bottega Veneta Andiamo

On Sofia Richie Grainge: Bottega Veneta Small Andiamo (£2960)

Next Up: 24 Stunning Pieces I'm Eyeing That Are Peak Luxury

When celebrities choose to wear an affordable item, we tend to take notice. Seeing as Hollywood has access to the very best in everything (the best facialists, manicurists, and of course, stylists), it should come as no surprise that the wardrobe's of the A-list would be equally as exclusive. And for the most part, they are. Celebs make headlines for wearing the latest designer It bags and those designers also clamor to have famous faces wear their collections. In other words, most have their pick of luxury labels, but they love an affordable fashion find just like us because, well, sometimes the cheaper option really is the best.

Recently we've noticed some of the best-dressed stars in wallet-friendly pieces, so we figured it was worth sharing. From the £6 tights Taylor Swift wore all over NYC to the sneakers Jennifer Lawrence just stepped out in that could be the next It pair, these are the under-£150 items celebrities are prioritising right now. 

1. Puma Palermo Sneakers

One thing about Emily Ratajkowski is that you can always rely on her for a good affordable find. When she's not making a strong case for a Zara accessory, she's probably wearing a cool pair of sneakers that won't break your budget. Case in point? Her latest pair, Puma's new Palermo Sneakers that brand ambassador Dua Lipa has also been repping. They're a slim-sole style that comes in black and white for $90, so they have all the fixings to become the next It sneakers.

2. Heaven Mayhem Earrings

Bold '80s earrings are suddenly the only jewellery trend anyone can talk about and despite being able to wear whichever designer pair they choose, celebs are favoring the under-£100 pairs from Australian brand Heaven Mayhem. Recently, Hailey Bieber wore the sculptural silver Bean earrings, and Lori Harvey likewise opted for the Tabi style. 

3. Calzedonia Sheer Tights

What if I told you that for the price of an oat milk latte with tip you could copy Taylor Swift's style? I'm not lying. While out to dinner in NYC, the artist wore a pair of sheer tights from Calzedonia that Hailey Bieber is also a fan of. With varying levels of sheer to choose from, it's no wonder celebs are stocking up on the winter staple from this Italian lingerie site.

4. Adidas Gazelle Sneakers

Jennifer Lawrence's closet is filled with brands like The Row and Toteme, so it's telling when she still reaches for an affordable pair of sneakers from Adidas. Recently, she wore Gazelles in a dusty blush shade which she styled with Toteme's dreamy Annecy coat and Loewe's viral Puzzle Tote. Move over, Sambas.

5. DMY by DMY Sunglasses

If it seems like everyone and their mother is wearing DMY by DMY, it's because they are. From Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid to Olivia Rodrigo and Laura Harrier, there's just something about the retro-style shades that has celebrities in a grip. It's Rodrigo's pick, the '90s-inspired oval Valentina style, that's arguably the best buy. Rodrigo's brown version are currently sold out, but the tortoiseshell below are incredibly similar.

6. Intimissimi Boat Neck Modal Cashmere Ultralight Top

Nope, not even celebs are immune to a TikTok viral fashion buy. Jasmine Tookes, our quiet-luxury style icon, recently attended an event for Intimissimi and opted for the Boat Neck Modal Cashmere Ultralight Top that my entire For You Page is obsessed with. The top was sold out for a while due a spike in demand but has just recently come back in stock in a drove of colors.

7. Flore Flore Esmé Tank

Celebs are wearing a basics brand you've probably never heard of (but should). That muscle tank Kendall Jenner wore? The baby tee that Hailey Bieber loves? Yep, they're all from Flore Flore, a Amsterdam-based label making some of the best sustainable basics right now. You have our word that they won't stay under the radar for very long, though.

8. Adidas Samba Sneakers

Olivia Wilde bought into the Samba craze and is making sure she gets her cost per wear down the zero. She's been spotted wearing her black pair all over L.A. from the gym and out to lunch, underscoring just how versatile the sneakers really are.

9. ALO Airbrush Streamlined Bra Tank

Yep, even Laura Harrier's gym outfits are covetable. As soon as I spotted her wearing this adorable ALO bra top, I raced to the site to add it to my own cart. Her exact color tragically isn't available anymore, but the Airbrush Stremlined Bra Tank does come in a few more colours like a striking cherry red.

10. Aligne Daphne Blazer

Chances are you've seen this blazer a lot on your Instagram recently. Am I right? Well there's a good reason. With a chic hourglass shape and spring-ready butter yellow, it's the strikes the perfect balance between trendy and timeless, and would make a very stylish addition to anyone's capsule wardrobe.

This story was originally published on Who What Wear US and has since been updated.

It's apparent that 2023 is the year of the comeback. First, the maxi skirt has returned to prominence after years of midi's reigning supreme. Next, bold '80s jewellery—in particular, oversized studs—are back on the style agenda after a long hiatus. But the most exciting, I believe, is the revival of humble ballet flats. And they come celebrity-approved.

Inspired by classic ballet shoes, ballet flats have a long history, first gaining prominence on the fashion scene in the mid-20th century. Since then, as many styles do, the popularity of the style has fluctuated, but thanks to a recent revival on the runways, the ballet flat is the shoe to own. 

The beauty of the ballet flat comes in various forms. The timeless appeal makes it a clever buy. Though ballet flats haven't been trending in a while, they've definitely remained on the fashion radar. Next is the practicality. The flat sole is not only a saving grace for your feet, but also makes them practical for long days running around town, commuting to work, or any time you fancy giving your heels a day off. So many designers have turned their hands to ballet flats, providing plenty of options when you're searching for your perfect fit. There are classic silhouettes with a traditional bow, square and pointed toes, and even a revival of elastic strap styles that mimic original ballerinas. (And of course, I've added a selection below.) The final pull of these shoes comes from the range of outfits they can be paired with. From nipping to the shops in a tee and baggy jeans to styling an elegant maxi silhouette for the evening, comfortable yet chic ballet flats always feel the part. 

To prove just how versatile (and loved) ballet flats are, I've pulled together eight ways that celebrities are styling theirs right now. Plus, keep scrolling to shop the best ballet flats for any budget.

Dressing chicly in the middle of a seasonal transition can be difficult, specifically the unpredictability of the time between autumn and winter. Just this weekend, for example, I stepped out of the house dressed in a hooded trench coat and a pair of knee boots, readied for a downpour, only to find glorious sunshine the moment I stepped off the train in town. Knowing what to wear and when to wear it is anyone's guess until the cooler temperatures truly settle in (by then, there's no room for doubt), but if there is one wardrobe staple I know I can rely on until that point, it's trousers.

Trousers have been integral to the 2022 aesthetic. From cut-outs to unbuttoned waistlines, there has certainly been a fair share of eyebrow-raising iterations along the way to entertain us. However, the overall trouser mood has been more classic and timeless, and, unlike other trends born on TikTok, the season's key trouser trends have been sparked by celebrities.

Early adopters of the top trouser trends of the season, celebrities have proven that comfort and style needn't be mutually exclusive with their ensembles. Take Dakota Johnson, who showcases a fresh silhouette of black tailored trousers as she runs errands in NYC. Then there's Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, who makes a case for the elevated legging style that works outside of the home or the gym. Even leather trousers, once considered one of the more restrictive trouser options, are more appeasing in straight-leg form, as evidenced by Jasmine Tookes.

Keep scrolling to see the eight celebrity trouser trends that have influenced the way we shop in 2022 and that we intend on wearing well into 2023. 

1. BLACK TAILORED

Style Notes: Never has the black tailored trouser been considered so fashionable as it has been this year. Slipping on a pair would previously give me flashbacks of getting ready for school. Now, though, with a wider fit and tailored waistband, there's nothing that makes me feel sleeker. As Dakota Johnson demonstrates, the black tailored trouser can work with practically any top half, be it a fitted shirt or a casual knitted cardigan and bra top two-piece.

2. LEATHER

Style Notes: I spent years searching for leather trousers that would fit my curvy, size-12 frame, but with all the spray-on or tapered styles that dominated, my quest was fruitless. That was until straight-leg styles, just like Jasmine Tookes's pair, came into play. 

Shop the Trend

3. FLARE

Style Notes: The '70s have played a big role in shaping the style aesthetic this year, with the return of the flared trouser causing much debate. This time around, the silhouette is less defined, owing to the use of more fluid, unstarched fabrics, which has given flares a more elevated finish. Make like Hailey Bieber, and pair yours for an easy polished 'fit. 

Shop the Trend

4. SPLIT-HEM LEGGINGS

Style Notes: Sometimes the smallest tweaks can make all the difference, and that's certainly the case when it comes to leggings—split the hem and the basic jersey trouser instantly feels more glamorous. Follow Rosie Huntington-Whiteley's lead and finish with slingback heels and an oversize blazer. 

Shop the Trend

5. PUDDLE

Style Notes: With everyone from Kate, the Princess of Wales, to Zoë Kravtiz wearing them, puddle pants have been the trouser trend of 2022, and their appeal is showing no signs of waning the closer we get to 2023. With excess fabric that pools around the ankle, this perhaps isn't the trouser style to choose on a rainy day, but its versatility makes it a wardrobe staple nonetheless.

6. CARGO

Style Notes: The Y2K aesthetic is going nowhere; Bella Hadid's cargo pants can attest to that! The trouser loans itself to casual outfits, with flat shoes and leather outerwear serving as the It-girl-approved way to style them. 

Shop the Trend

7. LONG JEANS

Style Notes: You've likely honed in on the recurring themes of wider legs and longer hems that keep cropping up, and both apply to jeans, too. Katie Holmes is just one of the celebrities currently favouring loose-fitting denim over skinnies this season. 

Shop the Trend

8. SILK

Style Notes: If wearing your pyjamas out of the house is basically your dream outfit scenario, then you're going to want to invest in a pair of silk trousers. Mary-Kate Olsen was snapped in a black pair, which she styled with white trainers and a black wool coat, cementing them as one of the chicest trouser trends of 2022 in the process. Of course, you could buy a pair of her own design by way of The Row, but there are plenty of high-street options to consider, too.

We already know all too well that one celebrity wearing something can turn said item into a major trend, especially when that celebrity is someone as influential as Kim Kardashian West or Gigi Hadid. But what happens when multiple celebrities wear the same piece? Well, it becomes *the* trend. At least, that appears to be the case with the pant style that's now been spotted on both of the above as well as on Bella Hadid, Jasmine Tookes and Katy Perry—all in the span of a few weeks. 

The buzzy trend in question? Leather pants, which practically every A-lister seems to be ditching their jeans for this month. The streak started two weeks ago, when Tookes was seen in L.A. wearing a pair of Good American faux-leather pants with Ugg clogs, a black turtleneck, and a matching duster. Then, during Milan Fashion Week, Kardashian West and both Hadid sisters were seen sporting the sleek pant style, all within a few days of each other. Back in L.A., Perry wore a full leather look for an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!. Coincidence? We think not.

This story was originally published on Who What Wear U.S. and has since been updated.

As a fashion editor, I spend the better part of my day researching trends. When it comes to outfit trends specifically, there’s one prominent look I’ve continued to spot throughout all of my sartorial explorations over the last few months: Okay, you may already know it (given that we've covered it in various ways before), but here it goes: a slouchy blazer, basic top, and blue jeans.

That’s right—it seems celebrity and fashion people all got the memo this season that this simple yet polished outfit formula is the only look that matters when you need a directional and cool ensemble that doesn’t try too hard. And while A-listers like Hailey Bieber and Emily Ratajkowski (along with It girls during Fashion Month) routinely stepped out in this three-piece fit throughout 2020, my gut tells me the ensemble will only increase in popularity over the next few months as more and more catch onto the effortlessness of the vibe. So with that, I’m deeming it the official fashion uniform right now—and in 2021.

To back this all up, I rounded up a range of my favourite celeb and fashion-girl outfits showcasing the various iterations of this chic ensemble. Keep scrolling to get inspired to try the look once and for all. Plus, find new ways to style the uniform you’ve already been wearing. And per usual, I also shopped out the key pieces for each outfit for further inspo.

For a classic yet modern vibe, team a slouchy blazer with a lightweight turtleneck, cropped jeans, and booties.

On Emily Ratajkowski: Zara booties

Try a fancier blazer made of silk or velvet with an on-trend multicolor turtleneck, straight jeans, and sandals or mules for a simple yet impactful night-out vibe.

On Jasmine Tookes: AFRM turtleneck; PrettyLittleThing denim

Lean into the other It look of the moment by stuffing straight-leg jeans into mid-calf boots with that slouchy double-breasted blazer.

On Elsa Hosk: Chanel tee; Prada bag

Elevate your favourite pair of blue jeans with a white blouse, a black blazer, and statement heels.

On Caro Daur: Amina Muaddi heels

Live somewhere slightly warmer? Pair a slightly cropped tee with a longline blazer, distressed wide-leg jeans, and vibrant heels to catch compliments.

On Hailey Bieber: Acne Studios blazer; Maison Margiela jeans; Balenciaga bag and heels

Further proof that you can legit toss a blazer over any outfit (including a simple denim-and-blouse fit) to appear impossibly elegant and chic.

Who: Jeanne Damas

Work in a more creative office setting? Test out the formula for that 9-to-5 life by pairing your blazer with tailored jeans and heels.

On Katie Holmes: Giuseppe Zanotti heels

A shorter blazer in a luxurious fabric like tweed brings an elegant twist to a casual silhouette.

Who: Brune Buonomano

A boxy grey blazer brings just the right amount of polish to a standard jeans-and-tee ensemble.

On Kaia Gerber: Jacquemus jacket; Re/Done jeans

The cynic in me used to believe that asking a supermodel for their skincare tips was counter-intuitive because to be a model you must have amazing skin already, right? Well, in a word, no. The truth of it is that models at the top of their game are likely to have a whole team of people dedicated to helping them achieve that glowy complexion of dreams. Nutritionists, dermatologists, facialists, makeup artists… You name it, and they've got the best in the business on speed dial. Yes, with direct access to the very best skincare experts in the world, models are actually the perfect candidates for a chat about all things skin. After all, they're armed with insider tips and tricks to keep their skin looking its absolute best at all times—their job depends on it.

So when a chance came up to chat with supermodel Jasmine Tookes, I jumped at it, mainly because I already follow her on Instagram and am more than a little obsessed with her glowing complexion. Thankfully, Tookes obliged and was more than happy to spill the beans on everything from her current skincare routine to the best industry advice she's ever received. Keep scrolling for more.

Have you always had naturally good skin, or have you dealt with skin issues in the past?  

I have always taken very good care of my skin [ever] since I can remember. Since I am African American, I do tend to get hyperpigmentation, which is the one thing I have always had to fight with different creams to prevent an uneven skin tone.

What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever received for achieving glowy skin?  

Hydration is key, whether that's drinking water or physically putting something on your skin. You want to make sure that your skin is always hydrated to give a luminous glow from within. Also, stay out of the sun! It can really damage your skin and create uneven skin tone. I use Hourglass's Equilibrium Day Fluid (£101) every day to protect my skin.

Could you break down your current skincare routine with us for morning and night?

I've been using the new Equilibrium Rebalancing Cream Cleanser (£52) from Hourglass Cosmetics. It just launched skincare, and I'm obsessed with the line. The cleanser leaves my skin feeling clean and fresh but still ultrahydrated. I follow that with the Equilibrium Restoring Essence (£64)—both day and night. I see the difference in how it balances my skin and adds radiance without making it feel dry or tight. Lastly, the Equilibrium Intensive Hydrating Eye Balm (£92) is amazing. I use it before bed and love how rich and soothing the formula feels. It leaves the area under my eyes so smooth. About once a week, I also like to use the Georgia Louise Micro Needling Kit (£359). This really helps to penetrate any product I'm using deeper into the skin and helps to smooth any fine lines. I also love the Kora Organics Noni Face Oil (£60) to give my skin an extra boost of hydration.

Have you ever made any skincare mistakes in the past?

I definitely would say when I was younger, I liked to pick at things. But soon after, I noticed my hyperpigmentation to be much worse. Now I try to never touch my face, even if I have the smallest itch.

Let's talk makeup. Are there any products that you swear by for adding radiance to your skin?  

Hourglass just came out with an extension of its Ambient Lighting Palette—the Ambient Lighting Palette Volume II (£61). The powders create this beautiful, multidimensional glow. They blend seamlessly with the natural warmth of my skin while still bringing luminosity.

Finally, what is the one thing that we should all start doing right now to get glowy skin?  

Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate! I can't stress that enough. There is no magic pill to glowy skin. It all starts with you being consistent in your skincare/wellness regime.

When it comes to hair highlights, much of the conversation centres around blonde tones, but we're of the opinion that the effects of highlights look just as impressive on brunette tresses. Yes, they're often more subtle, but at a time where the beauty world is shifting its focus to more natural and timeless looks – think no-makeup makeup – hair trends are following suit. With the power to make your hair look even more multi-dimensional and glossy, brunette highlights are in high-demand right now, especially as salons begin to resume their full services. And when you take a look at the gorgeous examples we've collated below, it's not hard to see why. 

We went through Instagram with a fine-tooth comb, searching for the celebrities and influencers who showcase brunette highlights at their finest. From light caramel wisps to chunky mahogany strips, these brunette highlights prove that sometimes the smallest tweaks can make the chicest difference. So, whether you're looking to add depth or simply brighten your hair for the remainder summer, these are the brunette highlights images you'll want to take with you to the hairdresser as stylish reference points. 

Aimee Song creates a gorgeous glow around her face with the addition of fawn-coloured highlights at the ends of her hair. 

The shine, the cut, the graduating highlights—the term "hair goals" comes to mind. 

Ali's caramel highlights give her hair depth and dimension, putting her friend's mane to shame. 

Highlights needn't be reserved for those with long hair, as Alyssa's bouncy crop proves. 

With shades of deep bronze on-top, Aude-Julie creates a cool colour contrast to her stunning long hair.

Anna's poker-straight hair allows us too see the full effects of her lighter ombré highlights. 

Caitlin's shades of golden brown enhance the rich brown colour of her fringe and roots. 

Celebrity hairstylist Chad Wood works his brunette highlights magic on actress, Olivia Munn.

Ciara's highlights may be bright, but the fact she's layered them underneath her darker tresses makes for a very cool alternative to the highlight norm. 

Claire's sophisticated centre-parting makes her light brunette highlights look even more striking.

Amaka's curls look incredible with her mahogany lengths and darker roots. 

Débora's cherry-brown highlights look beautiful set against her skin tone. 

Eni's chestnut highlights are perfectly blended with her dark brown lengths to create a beautiful finish. 

Erica's combination of caramel and coffee highlights is as delicious as it sounds. 

We always knew Jasmine had the face of an angel, so it makes sense that her hair is equally heavenly. 

Krista's honey-brown highlights look particularly incredible when they're tousled. 

Emily's dark copper lengths create a gorgeous glow around her face and décolletage. 

This ombré interpretation of brunette highlights has been executed perfectly. 

The balayage technique is the perfect way to wear brunette highlights. 

The blended brunette highlights in this shot make for a solid summer style.

Marianne gives her glossy crop even more dimension with copper tones woven throughout. 

Zendaya's amazing curls look even more stunning thanks to the blend of chestnut and copper hues. 

Another gorgeous example of how lighter brunette ends can lift your hair look.

When it comes to modern wardrobe staples, the blazer currently ranks high on that list of must-haves. Naturally, denim—especially skinny and straight-leg jeans—also falls in that "essentials” category. So when you pair the two together, well, let’s just say you have yourself one of the ultimate classic looks. And that’s particularly true when you team the two staples with a few other specific pieces. As celebrities such as Hailey Bieber and Jennifer Aniston have showcased over the last few months, the top items to wear with a blazer and jeans right now just so happen to be a simple tee or turtleneck and some sort of heels (typically either ankle boots or heeled sandals).

That’s right. If you want to keep your blazer outfit 2020-ready, it’s really just about bringing it back to the basics with simple coordinating pieces. To showcase some of the freshest elevated-casual looks, we rounded up five chic ways celebs are wearing their blazers and jeans right now. And naturally, we also shopped out inspired pieces for each if you’re ready to go all in on one of the A+ ensembles below.

Style Notes: A checked blazer with a tee in a coordinating hue is particularly fresh with straight-leg jeans and sandals.

Style Notes: Dress up a graphic tee like Ratajkowski did here with a long black blazer, straight blue jeans and bold red ankle boots. 

Style Notes: Into the all-black look? Team black skinny jeans with a tee or bodysuit, a tailored blazer and ankle boots for a no-fail ensemble.

Style Notes: Give the blazer-and-jeans vibe a whirl for a night out with a lightweight turtleneck and strappy sandals like Tookes showcased last year with this modern yet timeless outfit.

Style Notes: A white blazer and tee are clean and elegant with faded black jeans and boots.

Next up, the biggest spring/summer 2020 fashion trends you need to know.

Is it really as simple as being in the right place at the right time? From style stalking Candela Novembre and the Italian It girls who never get an outfit wrong, it's clear that it takes a whole lot more than picking up a Chanel handbag and hitting the fashion week circuit. We've researched what makes the perfect chemistry between girl, outfit and photographer by studying the most celebrated bloggers. 

Scroll down to decode what they do to get noticed time and again!

The formula for a winning street style shot is a concoction of elements including the person oozing their best self + an inspirational outfit + a striking background + the hot-ticket event + an excellent photographer to capture the moment in high-res, premium quality.

Sounds overwhelming? It needn't be. Take the scenic route back from the show space and flash a smile for those long lenses. Note: This is not about staging the photo, it needs to keep that spontaneous vibe! Case in point? Patricia Manfield is the utter pro at finding the perfect scene for her look.

One of the key ways to look good in photographs is to relax. If you're worrying about where to put your arm or whether should you smile with your teeth, the vibe has most likely plummeted. Caroline de Maigret is so well-versed in striking poses that suit her, she immediately falls into the perfect stance and gaze. Read five ways to look sexy by the French icon.

Hey, it rains in Paris; winter is a cruel mistress in New York; London is famed for its grey rain showers (don't we know it); and Milan, well, Milan is more often than not a tonic of sunshine.

No matter what the forecast is says, be prepared with clever layers that demonstrate how well you can style a functional look. It's real life not the runway, and that's what makes the whole affair of street style so attractive.

On Olivia Palermo: Westward Leaning x Olivia Palermo sunglasses.

They don't call it power couple for nothing. Bring your dapper beau or BF to fashion's front line, because two awesome people make for an even better photo op. Good company always makes for better smiles too!

Whilst staying true to your own personal style agenda, it's always cool to incorporate the current season's (or, even better, the next season's) most desired accessory. From Chanel's latest bag or sunglasses to Loewe's It bag du jour, get on it because photographers are like magnets for such pieces. 

On Helena Bordon: Chanel sunglasses and bag.

There's nothing worse than watching a woman tumbling over towering heels or balancing on cobbles (remember the Somerset House courtyard, aka the heel trap?). Even though it's a photo rather than a video, you need to be able to strut, stride and glide across the urban landscape in those premium shoes. Not only will you be way more comfortable, your posture will be elevated.

Oh, the fine line between knowing what suits you and playing it too safe. Susie Lau is the queen of mixing it up and keeping those around her guessing what she'll wear next. She single-handedly livens up the colour quota on the photo wires. Do dabble in a splash of adventure when you've established a foothold with street paps.

On Susie Lau: Loewe Elephant Shoulder Bag (£750) available in tan.

Before leaving the house/flat/hotel (delete where appropriate) don't just check your look from the front, check that your look is balanced all around. Some of the best street style snaps are of women walking away from the camera to showcase an unexpected detail or fashion flourish that makes the heart flutter. 

The Céline tie-back dress was last season's key look that made it across all street style blogs worth their salt. As seen on Pernille Teisbaek, Man Repeller and Yasmin Sewell, to name but a few.

On Pernille Teisbaek: Céline dress; Loewe bag.

Fashion outsiders tend not to fully understand that being papped on the street circuit is actually part of your PR and marketing strategy. It matters, but if it weighs heavy on you, you'll loose that vital joie de vivre that makes a woman so photogenic.

Stay playful with your outfits, and, most vitally, have fun flirting with those flash bulbs! Model Soo Joo Park is the perfect example of a professional woman raising her profile by having an enormous amount of fun in front of the cameras. Copy that.
