Katy Perry's Sleek All-Leather Look Emanates Power

Katy Perry's new chic style direction continues. On Thursday evening, Perry paid a visit to "Jimmy Kimmel Live" alongside cojudges Lionel Richie and Luke Bryan to promote the latest season of "American Idol." With the help of her stylist, Tatiana Waterford, the "When I'm Gone" singer dressed in a head-to-toe leather ensemble by Georgian designer Aleksandre Akhalkatsishvili.

Both crafted from vegan leather, the cropped blazer featured tie accents around the waist, and the matching straight-leg pants had the same wrap detailing. For accessories, the style duo chose gold-plated spiral earrings from Bar Jewellery and black platform heels. Leather, cutouts, and corsets are all part of Perry's recent edgier transition, which she notably introduced as she brought back her signature dark hair.

At the CMAs in November, Perry debuted her new look wearing a caramel-colored Vivienne Westwood dress with a corseted bodice and one shoulder, and since then, she's continued to wear sleek, sophisticated pieces at events - like her football-inspired ruched Alex Perry dress at the NFL Honors and Mugler catsuit on "Saturday Night Live" - and even in her recent "When I'm Gone" music video. Just a few days before she was spotted in her black leather outfit, she also wore a snakeskin leather coat and matching trousers with a neon-green crop top, all from Rotate Birger Christensen.

She hasn't completely abandoned her theatrical, quirky style, though. As she left "Jimmy Kimmel Live" on Thursday night, she was photographed wearing a giant poop costume, an outfit she's worn during her playful Las Vegas residency. From beer-can dresses to mushroom hats, Perry's Vegas residency is full of the kitschy, campy fashion she's known for. Over the years, she's rocked outfits inspired by sparkly cheeseburgers, chandeliers, and even Flamin' Hot Cheetos. Perhaps now her glitzy, over-the-top style is only reserved for the singer's performances. Ahead, get a closer look at Perry's latest outfit.

Diaper Shorts Are Back - How to Shop the Controversial TikTok Trend

Of all the street style trends to dominate our FYP and social media feeds in recent years, bloomer shorts seems to be the most bizarre (and ironically one of our top favorites) yet. And who do we have to thank for it? TikTok, of course. In a single scroll on the popular app, you've probably come across the piece multiple times, from those viral Miu Miu briefs to Aritzia's more affordable offerings. Slightly more flirty and risqué than the stomach pudge dress or the fisherman aesthetic , bloomer shorts (aka "diaper shorts") have officially made it to the top of the sartorial food chain. What Are Bloomer Shorts? While the idea of bloomer shorts may seem new or daunting at first, they're far from groundbreaking. Similarly to most trends, the good ol' "everything is new again" concept applies here, as the fad dates back to 1850 when the silhouette was invented as a practical solution for women's health and comfort - eventually grabbing the atten...

Does Uniqlo Heattech Really Keep You Warm? An Editor Investigates

I live in a perpetual state of being cold. Whether it's 70 degrees or below 17, you're bound to find me wrapped up in a blanket at home or venturing out with a jacket in tow. Growing up in Arizona hasn't exactly prepared me for how to navigate cooler temperatures, which is why I often rely on heavy layering during the winter months to keep myself feeling warm. In the past, this has translated into me dressing like Ralphie's younger brother from "A Christmas Story" - think chunky snowsuits, a double-wrapped wool scarf, and so many layers I'm hardly able to breathe (let alone move around). It wasn't until I was introduced to Uniqlo Heattech gear that I realized lightweight, movable thermals exist. Uniqlo's Heattech line is arguably one of the brand's most popular collections. Loved by shoppers for its wide variety of styles, the capsule boasts warm, insulated pieces that are designed to replicate the effectiveness of a thermal layer without the...

I Wore Sofía Vergara's Viral and Divisive Sneaker Heels - and Actually Sort of Loved Them

Despite what some people may think, the return of sneaker heels - largely attributed to Sara Blakely , the inventor of world-renowned Spanx, and now Sneex - happened by accident. "Our founder did not set out to create a sneaker heel. She set out to create the world's most comfortable high heel and this is where the innovation led her," a brand rep says. Not only are they supportive, they add noticeable bounce to my steps, which actually makes walking in high heels sort of . . . fun? Nevertheless, merely one year in, the company can report that The Tepper in Silver ($595) sold out in just 24 hours after launch and accrued an 11,000-person waitlist. One-third of the brand's customers have already invested in a second pair. And celebrities from Jane Fonda and Sofía Vergara to Reese Witherspoon and Suki Waterhouse have already been spotted wearing them. "The Sneex customer is responding to sneaker heels because they want height and wearability," the S...
