Month: December 2024

Kendall Jenner has stunned in striking lingerie and high heels. Additionally, her bold look has captured everyone’s attention.

The Kardashians star, 29, looked incredible in stunning photos. She confidently posed in a corset and heels, catching everyone’s eye.

Model Kendall looked chic in a black sequined strapless basque and hot pants. She sat cross-legged on a chair, with a roaring fire in the background, adding a festive touch to the pictures.

With her hair styled in a sleek 1960s bob, the Calvin Klein model exuded elegance. She completed the look with a bold red lip and matching red stilettos.

Holding a glass of red wine, the reality star wowed fans with her glamorous, Christmas-inspired photos.

Victoria Beckham’s simple yet striking Christmas outfit may have just proven that a trend, popular earlier this year, is here to stay for good.

The always-stylish pop star-turned-fashion designer, who wowed us with her dramatic train dress on Christmas Eve, shared another envy-worthy outfit. She enjoyed festive fun with her family, including husband David Beckham, their four children, and Nicola Peltz, Brooklyn’s wife.

Victoria gave her nearly 33 million Instagram followers a glimpse of her Christmas outfit, posting a family photo with the caption, “Being together for the holidays makes me so happy.”

It was Victoria’s outfit that made us happy. The icon wore a boxy, black blazer dress paired with chic patterned tights in a geometric, fishnet-style design.

The blazer dress looked slouchy and oversized, with only the tips of Victoria’s pink-manicured nails peeking out.

The patterned tights seamlessly blended into her pointed black stilettos, creating the perfect illusion that elongated Victoria’s legs.

Victoria’s statement party outfit is not only deceptively simple, but it also makes a strong case that the ‘no trousers’ trend could be here to stay in 2025.

From Jennifer Lopez to Anne Hathaway, everyone embraced the trend, and Victoria’s flattering silhouette may have just made the case for it once again.

Shoe trends may change, but socks can be just as divisive. And it’s not just Gen Z questioning millennial no-shows. The big debate? Socks with heels—yes or no? This unexpected combo has been around for years, but it’s making a strong comeback for fall 2024. Even PureWow’s Editor-in-Chief Jillian Quint named socks with heels as a top trend, thanks to celebs like Taylor Swift and Sabrina Carpenter. Wondering how to pull it off? You’re in the right place. Here are five stylish ways to rock socks with heels—and one look you might want to skip.

1. Soften Pointed-Toe Shoes with White Ankle Socks

Pointed-toe shoes are sharp, stylish, and perfect for petites who want to make their legs look longer. They’re a timeless choice—whether you prefer kitten-heel slingbacks or high pumps. Want to soften their bold look? Pair them with classic white socks, either scrunched or folded at the ankle. Fashion Week attendees from New York to Sydney are loving this trend for 2024. Just remember, skip the thick gym socks. Choose thin dress socks to keep your feet looking sleek and polished.

2. Embrace the ‘Office Siren’ Look with Sheer Black Socks

Bayonetta glasses aren’t the only way to rock TikTok’s ‘office siren’ trend, set to return this fall. For a bold, sexy twist on business attire, try sheer black knee-highs with a short hem that shows just enough. This look hints at hosiery but stays chic, whether paired with platform heels or stilettos. Not into knee-highs? Sheer black ankle or mid-calf socks work too—just like I styled with Sam Edelman heeled Mary Janes in the second pic.

3. Got Red Shoes? Go with Gray Socks

I love a bold color combo, and one that keeps popping up in street style is gray and red—especially gray socks with bright red shoes. With cherry tomato named one of fall 2024’s top Pantone shades, now’s the time to grab some fiery footwear. Pair them with gray socks for a fresh twist. For extra flair, try socks with metallic threads to add a fun, dressy vibe to your outfit.

4. Give Chunky Heels a Feminine Twist with Ruffles and Bows

Platform loafers and heeled Mary Janes are fall must-haves, perfect for nailing that preppy ‘dark academia’ look. Sheer socks are a classic match, but why not add a feminine twist? Try ruffled edges, pointelle knits, or even bows—just like Naomi Osaka rocked at the 2024 US Open. These cute, flirty details soften the chunky shape and add a playful touch to your outfit.

5. Add a Pop of Color with Bold Socks

Socks don’t have to stick to black, white, or gray. Add a fun pop of color to brighten your look! Whether you follow the Three-Color Rule for balance or go for bold contrast with a monochrome outfit, colorful socks can elevate your style. Just check out how these street style stars use vibrant hues to make their high heels stand out.

Avoid: Thick Socks with Strappy Sandals

I love experimenting with bold OOTD choices—this is a judgment-free zone! But if there’s one combo I can’t get behind, it’s thick socks with strappy sandals. The chunky fabric overwhelms the delicate straps, making the whole look feel awkward (and probably uncomfortable). If you’re set on layering under strappy heels, opt for thin socks or sheer nylons to avoid bunching and keep things sleek.

Billie Eilish kicked off the first of five shows at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles on Saturday night.

The 22-year-old “Ocean Eyes” singer thrilled her hometown crowd, wearing a New Orleans Saints jersey, black fishnet stockings, thigh-high black socks, and athletic shoes.

Thanks to the built-in panties in her tights, the Oscar winner avoided exposing her entire derrière to the audience.

Apple Music’s Artist of the Year rocked a backward green and yellow baseball cap, fully embracing her rock star persona.

We’re halfway through winter, and it’s the perfect time to update your cold-weather wardrobe for a fresh look.

As winter continues, my coats and cozy knits remain essentials, but I’m ready for a mid-season refresh. Luckily, I’ve discovered the perfect accessory to elevate my outfits. White tights, a favorite among fashion insiders in London, New York, and beyond, are making a subtle yet stylish statement this season.

White tights are adding a light, refreshing twist to heavy winter outfits, making this unexpected microtrend a fast favorite. Originally seen on runways at Valentino, Richard Quinn, and Altuzarra, designers styled them with layers, volume, and frills, crafting elegant silhouettes with a touch of regal charm.

It’s no surprise that this trend quickly transitioned from runway to real life. Celebrities have embraced white tights as a must-have accessory this season. Actor Jodie Turner-Smith showcased the look with snowy white micro shorts, a sleek black top, and a floor-length white coat during an outing in New York. The outcome? A bold, refreshing style that had fashion editors talking.

After making waves on the runways and trending on Instagram, lace tights emerged as a standout street style moment during September’s fashion month. Paired with knitted co-ords or tonal winter whites, this surprising accessory appeared in fashion capitals worldwide, solidifying its status as a key microtrend.

Worried about styling white tights? Don’t be—the trick is keeping it simple. A monochromatic white ensemble paired with frosty tights delivers a sleek, effortless vibe. For a daring twist, try them with a bold red accent or a timeless LBD for striking contrast. Soon enough, these tights will become a natural part of your winter wardrobe.

Socks are no longer just for practical use, like preventing blisters or staying warm. Today, with playful prints, unique fabrics, and bold silhouettes, socks are as stylish as bucket hats or statement earrings. Take the trendy knee-high socks, for example. Once tied to preppy school uniforms (think Blair Waldorf), they are now a street-style staple for fashion enthusiasts.

Socks can also bring a touch of sophistication to your outfits. According to Toronto and NYC-based stylist Kim Appelt, “Knee-high socks are a great accessory to elevate your winter wardrobe with a polished edge. They add personality to any look.” Before temperatures hit freezing, try sheer knee-high socks for a chic touch. Pair them with a pleated miniskirt or micro shorts to show off the style. If it’s colder, go for wool or ribbed cotton knee-highs with cropped jeans or trousers for a cozy yet stylish vibe.

When it comes to footwear, choose a style that suits the season. Ballerina flats are perfect for this time of year, especially for holiday gatherings. “Delicate and timeless, flats like Chanel’s classic ballerinas create an elegant and feminine look when paired with knee-high socks,” says stylist Kim Appelt. As the snow starts to fall, swap flats for tall boots to stay stylish and warm.

Double Down On Prints

Maximalist fashion lovers adore pattern mixing, and this leopard-and-floral combo is a standout choice. Take it up a notch by adding a bold, colorful bag to the ensemble. Balance the vibrant look with pointelle knee-high socks and classic black leather Mary Janes.

Monochromatic Moment

Knee-high socks and Bermuda shorts might seem like an unusual pairing, but influencer Alyssa Coscarelli shows they can work perfectly. The key is sticking to a neutral color palette, such as trendy khaki tones, for a cohesive and modern look.

White hosiery adds just the right amount of contrast to neutral tones, creating a statement that’s subtle yet striking.

Mad For Plaid

Though the chilly weather has arrived, fall isn’t over just yet. If you haven’t worn your favorite plaid miniskirt, now’s the time. Embrace the autumn vibes by pairing it with burgundy ballet flats or Mary Jane heels and cozy black cotton socks for a stylish look.

Leg-Baring Bloomers

If you’re in a warmer climate this fall and winter, try pairing your socks with trendy bloomers. Add an edgy leather jacket and a sleek suede bag to complete the look, ensuring you stay stylish and put-together, even if you feel like you just rolled out of bed.

Festive Velvet

Got a few holiday events lined up? Arrive in style by wearing a soft velvet mini dress. Pair it with sheer socks and your favorite pointy-toe heels for a subtly sultry, festive look.

Morgan Riddle always nails the cozy winter glamour look, proving she understands the assignment every time.

On Monday, December 16, the 28-year-old model and girlfriend of tennis star Taylor Fritz, often called “the most famous woman in men’s tennis,” shared photos from her Aspen, CO trip.

“Heart grew 3 sizes 🎅🏼🎄🌨️,” she captioned, referencing the classic Dr. Seuss tale, How The Grinch Stole Christmas. In the first photo of the carousel, the influencer stunned in sheer tights and a chic faux-fur coat while sipping a martini. Her glossy pink lips and perfectly styled hair added a touch of elegance. A full-body shot showcased her black stiletto heels, highlighting her toned legs and glamorous outfit.

Earlier this week, Morgan shared some stunning white-hot looks from Aspen, including another faux-fur and leggings combo she humorously called a “sleigh” instead of a “slay.” Monday’s photo dump also featured a few all-white outfits, such as a matching sweater-and-pants set paired with a white cowboy hat and trench coat.

If life teaches you one thing over the years, it’s that trends always come full circle. This applies to home decor, hairstyles (remember velcro rollers?), and even clothing. While some fashion trends, like neon shoulder pads, are better left in the past, others are making a comeback and bringing fun back into our wardrobes.

This year, a bold, color-focused fashion trend is making a comeback from the 1960s and 1980s: colorful tights.

The History of Colorful Tights

If you were forced to wear red tights and shiny black shoes as a child, the news that red tights are trending this Christmas might feel like a trigger warning! For others, it’s a beautifully nostalgic nod to festive seasons gone by—now back in style.

I’ve been loving tights during the past couple of winters. Although I don’t usually wear skirts or tights, I adore the look of sheer pantyhose peeking out from under jeans and trousers. Last year, I experimented with pops of red, but this fall, I focused on classic shades like brown and black. Wool tights, especially in Prada-inspired gray, are also catching my eye. After seeing stylish women in Paris embrace them, I’m ready to try this trend. Plus, I’ll admit, I’ve even warmed up to the more debated long-shorts-and-tights combo for winter.

Tights trends are making waves this winter, and burgundy tights are everywhere right now. It’s not surprising, considering 2024’s obsession with the color trend. Burgundy tights offer an easy and budget-friendly way to make even the simplest outfit feel stylish and intentional. Fashion influencers and celebrities, like Kendall Jenner—who rocked them last February at a Grammy’s after-party in Los Angeles—are embracing this trend. Here’s how the fashion world is styling this buzzy tights trend.

I’m sharing two photos of Megan Ellaby’s outfit so you don’t miss her clever styling of socks over tights. Similar to her bold choice of a clashing snake-print tote and loafers, sometimes what seems a little off actually works perfectly.

It would be a mistake not to highlight how burgundy tights bring a festive vibe that’s perfect for the holidays. Brighter cherry tones, in particular, stand out and pair beautifully with gray for a stylish look.

This all-black outfit becomes so much more striking with Salome Mory’s accessories. Her luxe burgundy tights and metallic clutch add the perfect touch of elegance.

Mimi Nguyen isn’t letting New York’s winter chill affect her style. A long puffer looks chic in burgundy, and her matching tights add an extra layer of cool.
