Sorry Leggings, These Comfy Travel Pants Are Dominating 2025
If you're like me, you probably have a pile of leggings in your closet. But lately, I find myself reaching for the once ubiquitous pants less and less. What's taking their place? Equally comfortable trousers with an elevated twist. From flared foldovers to roomy silhouettes with elasticated waists, there's no denying that the cozy-pant shift is happening right before our eyes this summer. For those planning any last-minute summer travels, take a look at what some of the most stylish women are wearing to stride through airport terminals and sail across the Mediterranean Sea. Priyanka Chopra stayed incognito at JFK in an all-black outfit anchored by soft flare pants. Kylie Jenner hit the road with her bestie Anastasia Karanikolaou in straight-leg fleece. Both looks bring that effortless, pull-on practicality that's ideal for travel, plus a modern, camera-ready edge. No matter where you're going or how you're getting there, these are the travel pants guaranteed to make you look undeniably amazing. Flare Up Adrian Edwards Put skinny silhouettes on pause and introduce a bit of volume to your wardrobe with stretchy, soft flares. Chopra showed us how it's done in a timeless, head-to-toe black ensemble. Follow her lead and incorporate the cozy lounge pants into your travel rotation. Get Set @loriharvey When in doubt, a two-in-one combo makes getting dressed as effortless as ever. This is your moment to play with prints, like the coordinating look jet-setter Lori Harvey wore in the Maldives. Ahead, find our favorite travel pants that come with matching tops. Stay on Track Stefano Mazzola Forget the track pants you wore in gym class—today's version features elevated details that look polished yet cool without sacrificing any comfort. While at the Venice airport, Queen Rania of Jordan wore the perfect example—a sleek pair from Alo. Sculptural Shapes @leoniehanne If you only learn one thing from this story, remember: Voluminous silhouettes are your friend. Suppose the agenda calls for a couple of hours at sea; this is your moment to have a bit of fun and lean into the sheer trend while you're at it. Play with proportions by grabbing a pair of floaty pants à la Leonie Hanne in the coveted Alaïa trousers. Flattering Fleece @kyliejenner Airplanes have a way of getting really cold. That's when cozy fleece comes in handy. Kylie Jenner and her best friend Anastasia Karanikolaou wore coordinating styles in a flattering straight-leg silhouette from Khy.

A$AP Rocky's Latest Look Is The Sweetest Homage To Rihanna
THE RUNDOWN: Last night, A$AP Rocky stepped out on the red carpet for the premiere of Spike Lee's Highest 2 Lowest in Los Angeles. The rapper, who shows off his acting chops in the upcoming film, looked dapper in a relaxed nylon suit from the ERL fall 2025 collection. He accessorized with a custom polka-dot tie from the brand, designed by Eli Russell Linnetz. The look was styled by Matthew Henson—who you can also thank for Rocky's quilted blanket ERL moment at the 2021 Met Gala. If the ensemble looks familiar, it's because last month, Rihanna wore the same suit and tie out to dinner at her favorite spot, Giorgio Baldi. (No look is too daring for the style icon to dine in; she also wore sculptural Alaïa to the same restaurant.) Unlike Rocky, Rihanna skipped the nylon button-down shirt and instead sported a see-through Savage X Fenty bra, further cementing her as the foremost trendsetter for edgy maternity style. Rocky and Rihanna might be one of the most stylish couples out there, so it makes sense that the two would dig into each other's closets, share looks, and double their sartorial impact. In an interview with Variety on the carpet at the 2025 Met Gala, the rapper joked that Rihanna was a 'thief' when it came to his closet. 'She be stealing all my pieces, my favorite pieces,' he said, adding that he was waiting to get her back. Now, that time has come, and the pair couldn't look better.

Polka Dots, Balloon Pants, Rat Bags, and More—All the Copenhagen Street Style Trends
It's not just you who's feeling dotty these days. At Copenhagen Fashion Week, the trend of the season was polka dots on everything from leggings to jackets. Credit for that goes to Caroline Bille Brahe's Caro Editions, one of the city's—and Scandinavia's—hottest rising brands. Beyond polka dots, street stylers embraced all things fun, including Labubu charms and rat bags (these are the fashion-ified rats and not the scurrying creatures we see on the streets). The most runway conscious of the bunch drew inspiration from another European city—Paris—in the form of layered slips trend from The Row, and balloon pants courtesy of Alaïa. Scroll through the seven biggest trends from the spring 2026 shows in Copenhagen, below. Gone Dotty It was all polka dots all the time in Copenhagne, thanks to Caro Editions.

31 Surprisingly Stylish Pieces From Amazon
A bow-backed babydoll one could reasonably assume was from Anthropologie or J. Crew. It just screams, "I'm going to the Hamptons this weekend." An adorable tennis skort that will have you leaping for joy — without flashing anyone. Why? Because this amazing piece comes with A POCKET! A sheer lace-style top that you can wear under a dress or overalls for extra texture during the day or over a dark bralette for a sultry look at night. A pair of trendy mesh ballet flats that bear a striking resemblance to a certain Alaïa pair, but without you needing to take an extra mortgage out. Or a pair of mesh jelly sandals because I will not let you spend almost $800 on jellies. With these, you can try out the trend, let your tootsies breathe, and shout "Row, shmow!" A swimsuit with ruched sides and drawstrings that allow you to customize your fit, sort of like a corset. Reviewers like that the strings can change how much coverage you get, so you can adjust the look throughout the day. A pull-on midi skirt so you can finally pull off THE Instagram fashionista look: tied tee, chunky chain, Baggu crescent bag, sneaks, and this amazing skirt. And once you're sick of that look, you can style it a million other ways, from sandals to big boots. A comfy long-sleeve/short set that's the closest you're getting to wearing pajamas to the group hang. The stripes are SO cute, I wouldn't blame you if you wore these from bed to brunch. A pair of rhinestone cutout jeans you may have seen worn by a certain pop star at a certain football game. OK, not this exact pair — we're not all millionaires — but close enough! A chic lil' shoulder purse so you can feel as effortlessly cool as a Parisian without any of the risks that come with living in Paris — getting Ratatouille'd, for example. A lightweight crewneck cardigan sweater you can count on to keep you warm in the mornings and evenings when the sun isn't quite ready for the job. I would say this is a great choice for chilly offices, but we all know we need a full-on parka for that type of tundra. 🥶 A simple, reliable tank with a fun V-neck that spices up an otherwise normal basic. Despite its low price, customers are happy with the quality and fit. One reviewer said it feels "soft like satin or silk." Or if you'd prefer a crewneck (and maybe a fun pattern), a tank you'll be glad to have for every grocery store run, outdoor dinner, or intense mini golf game. Wear as a tunic with leggings, tuck it into some high-waisted pants, or — you know, what? You can kinda style this anyway you want. It's that versatile. A puffy sleeve top so darling, even teddy bears will get jealous. The square neckline is basically like a giant spotlight for your favorite necklace. Chunky ankle boots in a timeless sillouette to give any outfit a little edge and a lot of comfort. The elastic sides make it easy to throw these on, so I foresee these being your go-to boots. Breathable and machine-washable pointed-toe flats with stretchy knit uppers that'll have you tap dancing with glee when you try them on. When your dancing shoes start to get dingy, just toss 'em in the wash. A beautiful tennis bracelet no one has to know is actually made with zirconia. You just need to decide if you want yellow, white, or rose gold plating — or OK, all three. A layered necklace set with three classic chains — herringbone, curb, and rope — that'll elevate any outfit, even your dog-walking uniform. Thanks to their gold plating, the necklaces are hypoallergenic and tarnish-resistant, making them a great budget option when solid gold is out of the question. A spandex-blend slip maxi dress that's the closest you can get to wearing a nightgown outside while still looking ready for date night. Reviewers say that this fabric is not only comparable to a certain Skims dress, it might actually be even better. And a scoop-neck tee offering the same buttery softness as the beloved Skims top. Bonus: This one comes in more colors than it costs. A midi corset dress if you love the House of CB Carmen dress but not the price. ($225?!) You can still enjoy a cinched back, front tie, and all the compliments of the real deal. A quilted floral jacket perfect for unpredictable weather. Can't complain about chilly mornings when it's an excuse to wear something this cute. A pair of crossover flared leggings providing a silhouette so enticing, you'll find yourself getting distracted every time you see your reflection. If the 5,800+ happy reviewers are to be believed, these pants are so comfortable, you'll be asking questions like, "can I wear these to a wedding?" And a super-soft longline sports bra some have compared to Lululemon's Align tank top for an Equinox-level workout look at a Planet Fitness price. Reviewers say it offers a little less compression, so you can wear it on casual days, too. A tie-front cropped shirt perfect for making your vacation pics even more memorable. Remember that time we went to the boardwalk and we couldn't go more than 10 steps because people kept complimenting you? A bodycon pencil dress because you can alwaaaays use another LBD. Whether it's formal or casual, it all comes down to the right accessories — love a do-everything piece! A large satin scarf that's so versatile, it'll likely be named "most worn" by You magazine. You can style it as a scarf, top, belt — or tie it around your bag when your tote wants to accessorize, too. High-waisted palazzo trousers because they offer all the comfort of sweats while still serving up major voted-best-dressed-in-high-school looks. A denim pencil skirt that goes with pretty much anything but is still special enough to get a ton of "where did you get that?"s. A stretchy faux-wrap tee if you're stuck in a T-shirt rut. You can still wear tees — this one is just a step in a new direction. A pair of retro-style oval sunglasses so similar to Miu Miu, you could possibly trick friends into thinking you splurged on a $489 pair. Just be sure to correct them before they expect you to pay for lunch. A lantern-sleeve mini that says "Cinderella on a casual day" to me. Just look at those romantic puff sleeves and back ribbon that was definitely tied by birds! A tiered maxi skirt seen on many a Pinterest board. This dreamy chiffon number is double-layered, so it isn't see-through or likely to blow up in the wind. A lacey corset top that is basically screaming, "hey, can you take a picture of me?" Whether it's you at the trendy new cocktail bar or just picking up a coffee order, the likes are gonna come roooollllingg in. A square-neck cami proving that less is more. Pair it with some jeans and start aura farming! Reviewers rave that this basic feels high-end, citing the super soft, double-layered fabric and amazing fit. A cute faux-wrap dress for basically all occasions. One flight attendant says this dress is great for packing on trips, thanks to its lightweight material! Strappy chunky heels perfect for tearing it up on the dance floor this wedding season. Despite the solid, budget-friendly price, reviewers confirm there's no painful break-in period. A one-shouldered dress that's slightly toga-like, which gives you the perfect excuse to declare this your Italian summer. Someone needs to order you an olive plate and Aperol Spritz STAT. A pair of high-waisted biker shorts you should buy now before summer is in full swing and you're staring at your dresser wondering what you can put on that you won't sweat through in 90 seconds. These shorts + giant T-shirt = summer uniform. A crescent bag that perfectly straddles the line between formal and casual. I can easily see you wearing this cutie every darn day! A cross-strap bikini totally worth the unusual tan lines you might get from wearing it. Picturing you and this swimsuit taking long romantic walks on the beach. :')

Rihanna Cements Her Status As ‘Mother' in a Sculptural Cotton Candy-Pink Dress
THE RUNDOWN: Through three pregnancies, Rihanna has continually redefined (and raised the bar for) maternity style. No sculptural silhouette or daring style has ever been off-limits for the fashion figurehead—and there are certainly no elastic-waist jeans here. In recent weeks, she and her longtime stylist Jahleel Weaver have yet to slow down, as she's sported fresh-off-the-runway Alaïa, Saint Laurent, and custom Dior by Jonathan Anderson (before it even debuted in Paris). However, on August 5, the singer was spotted stepping out in Los Angeles in what might be one of her best archive pulls yet: an Issey Miyake cotton candy-like dress directly from the spring 2001 runway. The piece was designed by the brand's then-creative director Naoki Takizawa (a protégé of Miyake himself). Takizawa was inspired by a world he envisioned thousands of feet deep under the sea—hence, the colorful and conceptual shapes that bubble underneath the fabric's stretched surface. The result was a vibrant collection filled with crustacean-like adornments and many other bright and voluminous shapes. The dress is undoubtedly vibrant and bold, but the fashion mogul didn't stop there. She paired the look with silver and neon green Ottolinger x Puma Mostro sneakers. With so many looks turned out in such a short time, Rihanna continues to keep us on our toes for whatever style surprise she has next.
