Hailey Bieber never misses when it comes to style [1], even when there's a controversial trend [2] involved. On April 21, the Rhode Beauty founder [3] shared her casual Thursday night outfit, centreed around her low-rise cargo pants, on her Instagram Stories. She teamed the baggy trousers with a super-cropped graphic tee, topped with an oversized boxy blazer — her signature silhouette when it comes to outerwear. Accessorising with chunky Yeezy trainers and hingeless sunglasses, Bieber showed off her effortlessly cool style [4], embracing the popular baddie aesthetic [5]. On the jewellery front, she added Balenciaga logo earrings and layers of gold chain necklaces.
Bieber's utility pants are evidence that cargo pants [6] can be a lot cuter than some of the designs from the early aughts. While some people have refused to hop on the low-rise trend [7], others, like Bieber, have embraced nostalgic pieces [8] with open arms, giving the Y2K look a modern twist. Considering the model is at the forefront of every major 2000s trend [9] — she just debuted a rhinestone lower-back tattoo [10] a few weeks prior — it's no surprise she pulls off these pants with ease.
Just last week, Bieber enjoyed the first weekend of Coachella in similarly casual looks inspired by nostalgia [11]. In a sea of loud Y2K styles [12] and "Euphoria [13]"-themed fashions, Bieber opted for a more pared-down outfit for day one, wearing low-slung baggy denim from Carhartt, a cropped tank, and an oversize leather jacket curated from Worn Vintage. On a different day, she wore snake-print textured flares from Luna Del Pinal and a ribbed crop top with a body chain. The street style star [14] has also been sporting a variety of Y2K pieces on Justin Bieber's "Justice" tour, including low-waisted baggy trousers [15], micro miniskirts [16], and baby tees [17].
