If there are two celebrities whose style I’d happily take inspiration from, it has to be Pamela Anderson and Elsa Hosk. While they move in different circles, both have an undeniable knack for curating sleek, elegant outfits and filling their wardrobes with enviable, timeless pieces.

Although their personal styles differ, when I spot a crossover between Pamela Anderson and Elsa Hosk, I know it’s something special. This week, that moment came with a chic, cold-weather look—simple black tights paired with sleek court shoes. It’s a combination I’ll always love.

Inspired by ‘90s elegance, Anderson embraced a key trend: a silky skirt. To add a relaxed touch, she layered a chunky knit, achieving a perfect balance between classy and effortless. Sticking to green tones, the look felt both bold and thoughtful, thanks to its carefully chosen colors and styling.

Hosk, in contrast, embraced her signature polished aesthetic. She paired her tights with square-toe pointed heels, giving her look a refined edge. Her outfit followed a minimalist approach: a knitted cardigan with a matching mini skirt, complemented by a black handbag, chocolate-brown leather gloves, and deep inky sunglasses. The result? A masterclass in modern, pared-back sophistication.

A staple in every fashionista’s wardrobe during the ‘90s, the classic tights-and-heels combo is long overdue for a comeback. With Pamela Anderson and Elsa Hosk already leading the trend, it’s only a matter of time before we see it everywhere, especially during Fashion Month.

Fashion rules are usually seen as guidelines, but they’re meant to be bent or even broken to showcase personal style. One outdated rule that’s ready for a makeover is pairing sheer tights with open-toe sandals. This combo is not only chic and elevated but also effortlessly cool—no fuss needed. And we’re certainly not alone in thinking so.

Fashion insiders, particularly those with a minimalist, high-fashion style like The Row, are increasingly embracing this once-debated pairing. Zoë Kravitz, an icon known for her effortless luxe style, was spotted in NYC yesterday evening rocking sheer tights with open-toe kitten heels, layered under a sleek black wool coat.

The streets of New York Fashion Week showcased this chic combination in full force. Creative entrepreneur and designer Tylnn Nguyen paired sheer tights with patent leather, strappy open-toe sandals at the Calvin Klein F/W 25 show. She completed the look with straight-leg jeans, a graphic T-shirt, and a blazer.

Meanwhile, digital creator Mary Leest took a more glamorous approach, pairing sheer tights with a sequin dress and a fur shawl. These looks prove that open-toe shoes don’t have to be reserved for warmer months—simply add tights, and they’re perfect for year-round wear.

Beyond the street style scene, this trend made waves in the spring/summer 2025 collections. Toteme showcased sheer tights paired with wide-leg trousers and pencil skirts, creating an elegant blend of bold and refined.

As fashion’s most stylish set fully embraces sheer tights and open-toe sandals, it’s clear that this will be one of 2025’s defining styling techniques—especially as we move into the transitional weather season.

Winter skirts are a bold choice, but with the right tights, your favorite mini can make a February comeback. Take inspiration from Emma Stone, who rocked a black mini skirt and semi-sheer hosiery at a Paul McCartney concert in New York during a snowstorm on February 12 — her first public appearance since the 2025 Golden Globe Awards.

After Paul McCartney’s performance, Emma Stone and her mother, Krista, made a quick exit from The Bowery Ballroom in Manhattan. The Oscar winner showcased effortless style in an all-black ensemble, featuring a Khaite ankle-length leather trench coat. Following stars like Dua Lipa and Rihanna, Stone left the coat untied to reveal a crewneck sweater and matching mini skirt. She paired ultra-sheer black tights with knee-high boots for warmth, opting for short heels instead of her usual red carpet stilettos. Stone’s monochrome look was finished with a crescent bag, ribbed beanie, and gold hoop earrings — a chic, understated OOTN.

Some tights-and-shoe combinations are simply perfect—like knee-high boots with semi-sheer tights, a timeless duo. On the other hand, some pairings stir debate. Tights with open-toe sandals, though common on the red carpet, are rarely seen in daily outfits. Another controversial choice? Tights worn with trainers.

Although opinions within our team vary, one fashion insider who fully embraces the look is model and singer Suki Waterhouse. During New York Fashion Week, she stepped out in an embroidered leather trench coat, sleek black sunglasses, and an oversized scarf. While these pieces were striking, it was her surprising footwear choice—trainers paired with tights—that truly grabbed my attention.

Instead of the usual Nike or Adidas options, Waterhouse chose vibrant orange and pink Kurt Geiger Islington Trainers (£159). By embracing the colorful trainer trend that’s been growing in popularity, her choice effortlessly added a playful contrast to her winter look.

Though unconventional, Waterhouse’s tights-and-trainers combo provided both comfort and practicality—perfect for the hustle of Fashion Week. At the same time, it gave her winter outfit a fresh, unexpected lift.

Kelly Clarkson rocked another stylish outfit on her award-winning show, sparking plenty of buzz among fans!

The host of The Kelly Clarkson Show posed with her star-studded guests, including Danny Ramirez and Christina Ricci, for Thursday’s episode. She wore a tailored mini dress layered over a black long-sleeve top and sheer tights.

She finished off her outfit with leg-lengthening chunky heels. The award-winning singer received a flood of compliments after the photo was posted, with one fan commenting, “Kelly, you look amazing,” while another said, “Absolutely love Kelly’s look.” A third remarked, “Kelly’s looking so pretty and healthy.”

At the Daytime Emmy Awards in June, she won Outstanding Talk Show. During her speech, she took the opportunity to thank the network.

While accepting her win on stage, she said, “Thanks to NBC for believing in our show. … NBC, a major company, took the time to listen when I shared, ‘Hey, my life isn’t going well. I’m not sure I can stay in L.A. or keep doing this.'”

“They truly embraced us and helped us with the move. It’s been incredibly beneficial, not just for me and my family, but for the entire show. Moving takes time, money, and effort, and we don’t take that for granted. I just want to thank them for considering mental health alongside the product.”

The move was a big change for her young family, but her children are thriving in the Big Apple. Kelly shares her daughter, River, and son, Remington, with her ex-husband, Brandon Blackstock.

In the fashion world, trends can fade quickly, often disappearing before we even get a chance to wear them. However, when a trend reappears season after season, it’s definitely worth paying attention to. So, start thinking about how you can incorporate it into your wardrobe.

This was clearly evident at Marc Cain’s recent AW25 show, which proved that colored tights, pointy-toe boots, faux-fur coats, and burgundy are here to stay. The German brand kicked off Berlin Fashion Week on January 31, taking over the industrial Kraftwerk space in trendy Kreuzberg. The show featured a stunning new collection, set against futuristic LED installations.

International celebrities like Kelly Piquet and Michelle Hunziker sat front row for the event, while Alessandra Ambrosio flew in just to walk the striking 51-meter-long metallic runway.

Opening the show in a chic, head-to-toe burgundy look, the supermodel set the tone for modern sophistication. The collection showcased stylish tailoring, luxurious knits, two-piece sets, and feminine dresses, all reflecting this elegant vibe.

Staying true to its concept of ‘blending the familiar with the visionary,’ Marc Cain reimagined even the classic pieces with bold details and striking silhouettes. For instance, smart tweed skirt suits were refreshed with bright red tights and matching heels, while monochrome tailoring was elevated with metal waist-belts or statement jewelry. Even the more casual looks featured a touch of Western flair.

Faux-fur coats were a standout, available in neutral tones and a striking emerald green. Meanwhile, low-heeled, pointy-toe boots emerged as the season’s must-have shoes, effortlessly paired with everything from jeans to maxi skirts and dresses.

The best part? These are trends you can start wearing now to refresh your winter wardrobe, and they’ll still be stylish well into the new year. No excuses left to skip the shopping!

If you love fashion, you know how tricky winter can be when styling an outfit that’s both chic and practical.

Too often, we sacrifice warmth and comfort just to keep our style on point. If you’re tired of rushing home to defrost by the radiator, take inspiration from Kendall Jenner! She just stepped out in NYC wearing the perfect mix of cute, cozy, and effortlessly cool.

After making her NYFW debut on the Calvin Klein runway, Kendall Jenner was spotted in Greenwich Village on Friday night. She turned to one of the world’s top fashion names for the cutest, coziest coat.

Kendall Jenner nailed off-duty glamour in the chicest way! She wore sheer black tights, a black micro mini skirt, and a £7,700 shearling jacket in ‘Warm Vanilla’ from Phoebe Philo.

To finish her after-dark look, Kendall styled her brunette bob into a sleek bun, added gold-toned statement earrings, and rocked a glowing bronzed makeup base.

Shearling teddy coats are the unofficial hero of winter 2025, with famous faces like Kendall’s sister Kylie and her best friend Hailey Bieber rocking them regularly.

Just a few days ago, Anya Taylor-Joy proved that opulent overcoats are a fashion favorite. She styled Alexander McQueen’s ‘Exaggerated Shoulder Shearling Coat in Beige’ while out and about in the Big Apple.

Fashion’s Tania Leslau explains, “Shearling, a sheepskin with wool still attached, has been used for centuries for warmth and durability. Ancient cultures like the Mongols and Vikings wore shearling for insulation. In the 20th century, shearling became a fashion staple, popularized by WWII aviator jackets and later embraced by high-fashion A-listers.”

Luckily for those who haven’t yet invested in a shearling coat, there are just over 35 days left of winter! So, open a new tab and start shopping!
