Hailey Bieber Wore the Coolest 2022 Trend I'm Replacing Skinny Jeans With

If these new photos are any indication, we've got a new powerhouse friend duo in town: Hailey Bieber and Euphoria's Alexa Demie (who you may remember as a previous Who What Wear cover star). They had a sushi dinner together in Los Angeles and dressed in complementary winter outfits, with Bieber in a tan wool coat and Demie wearing a teddy version.
My favorite part about their outfits? Bieber's leather trousers, which are my favorite denim-alternative trend and have been replacing my go-to skinny jeans lately. Not only are faux-leather pants just as comfortable as jeans (when you find the right buttery-soft pair), but they also look so much more polished without trying hard at all. Scroll down to see their outfits and shop the trend.

Next, I personally tested these eight sweaters and guarantee they're itch-free.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern in 2011—back when the site only published a single story per day. (We have since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC and lives in Los Angeles. 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 2015, where she is now the Associate Director of Fashion News. From the Oscars to the Met Gala, she leads the site's entire red carpet coverage strategy. She specializes in celebrity and fashion news but also enjoys writing travel features and runway reports. She frequently contributes to WWW's social accounts and has a sizable following on her personal TikTok.
