With each passing day, Duggar fans grow louder in demanding a Jinger Duggar pregnancy announcement

. We don't know when it will come. Some fans don't know if it will come.

In the mean time, Jinger still wears pants with her husband's blessing, as you'll see

in two new photos below. This time, though, her fashion choices caused fans to ask some

questions .

And who better to talk women's fashion than ... Jeremy Vuolo?

Jinger Duggar, as a family "rebel," continues to be a little divisive among Duggar fans.

Most conservative Christian families would be delighted at a woman who gets married right

away to a conservative Christian man -- without having premarital sex or any of the other,

you know, things that most humans do.

And sure, plenty of Duggar fans applaud Jinger for getting a husband who has a few theological

differences with her father ...

(Of course, one of those differences is that Jeremy Vuolo thinks that the fundamentalist Duggars

aren't harsh enough against gay people, which ... is a pretty extreme view)

... and who allows her to wear pants.

Other Duggar fans, however, continue to freak out whenever they see her wearing the devil's

leggings or whatever they think that pants are.

Jeremy Vuolo shared this photo of Jinger -- again wearing pants, and included the caption:

"Standing outside Tenth Presbyterian Church where the late Dr. James Montgomery Boice

pastored for 32 years. He was a remarkable gift to the church as a whole and is one of

my and @jingervuolo's favorite authors."

Boice was a conservative theologian noted for his devotion to the Christian concept

of Biblical Inerrancy.

Fans were less curious about dead religious thinkers and more about Jinger's shoes.

Fan comments were, though harmless compared to some of the hate that Duggars get on social

media, definitely fashion-oriented.

"Those shoes are giving me life! I need them in my life!"

(Kind of weird to see phrasing by Duggar fans that you'd expect to hear on, like, RuPaul's

Drag Race )

"What kind of shoes does she have on?"

It was Jeremy Vuolo who responded, lending his fashion expertise to identify the shoes

as "Converse Chuck's wedges."

(For those interested, the full name of the shoes is Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Lux

Wedge Sneakers, which is a ridiculously long name for a line of sneakers)

Odd to hear anyone looking to a Duggar daughter as a fashion icon or trendsetter though.

Under this photo, Jeremy Vuolo used a quote for his caption:

"'A true wife is the husband's better half, his flower of beauty, and his heart's treasure.

In her company he finds his earthly heaven; she is the light of his home, the comfort

of his soul.' ~ C.H. Spurgeon"

Spurgeon was an 18th Century conservative theologian. He was a diehard Baptist who was

also a noted abolitionist.

Comments here were also less interested in religious doctrine or quotes about marriage,

and instead commented on Jinger's choice of clothing:

"OMG they let her wear jeans."

(The "they" is literally just Jeremy Vuolo ... we'll get to that in a moment)

"Omg Jinger you are STUNNING!" another fan wrote. "Those jeans look so nice on you!"

That second compliment was a nice way of addressing the jeans-wearing without sounding ignorant.

The first ... well, if you keep up with the Duggar daughters on their adventures in adulthood,

it can be frustrating to read comments from people who think that Jim Bob's allowing this.

Under the particular brand of Christian fundamentalism to which Jim Bob adheres, his daughters may

not wear pants ... until they are married off, at which point they are effectively the

property of their husbands and their husbands can make those kinds of choices.

Jeremy Vuolo has stated that he doesn't believe that Jesus saves people to make them wear

skirts, which sounds like sound theological reasoning to us.

Meet the People, Trends, and Items That Will Rule Fashion in 2018 | Daily Fashion - Duration: 8:28.

Meet the People, Trends, and Items That Will Rule Fashion in 2018

If we've learned anything from 2017's wild and wacky fashion, it's to expect the unexpected. Austere minimalism went out the window in favor of a magpie-like love of glitz, glamour, and granny-chic style.

Artists outpaced musicians as the coolest collaborators. And a new crop of models brought their outsize personalities to the catwalks in New York, London, Milan, and Paris.

Even in this time of change, we're putting our money on nine trends that will dominate fashion in 2018. And if they don't, well, don't worry—we'll be the first to tell you.

KiraKira clothing is the new naked dress. Sexiness has a new form. Rather than reveal, 2018's best frocks will conceal the body in a maelstrom of sequins and shine.

Championed by London upstart Michael Halpern, the KiraKira-friendly look gained traction at Paco Rabanne, Tom Ford, Dolce & Gabbana, and Dior. The future is bright. Art collaborations are the new music collaborations.

The merch-mania that ruled 2017 will give way to a new kind of collaboration in 2018: the upgraded art-fashion pairing. At Calvin Klein, Raf Simons made headlines by including Andy Warhol screen prints in his Spring 2018 collection.

That turned out to be the beginning of a multiyear collaboration between the brand and the Warhol Foundation, a partnership that promises to test the boundaries between fashion and art.

Over at Gucci, Alessandro Michele, too, has embraced the power of fine art. Rather than book an A-list photographer, Michele asked artist Ignasi Monreal to paint Gucci's Spring 2018 campaign.

The results are otherworldly. And as with many trends, you can bet that where Simons and Michele go, others will follow. Scrunchies are the new dad hats.

Was every cool girl in your feed wearing a fitted dad cap in 2017? You weren't alone. Yet we bet that by summertime next year, those embroidered hats will be replaced by another throwback accessory: the scrunchie.

Seen in Balenciaga and Mansur Gavriel's recent collections, the chunky hair accessories are poised to become a popular post-ironic piece of flair among twentysomethings. Cargo pants are the new jeans.

"Denim has had a slowdown," MatchesFashion.com's buying director Natalie Kingham recently told Vogue. Are you surprised? Over the course of 2017 everything that could possibly happen to a pair of jeans did—including being deconstructed to their bare seams.

In denim's wake, a new look has emerged. Loose, comfortable cargo pants in camouflage, khaki, and army green have been spotted everywhere from the Sacai runway to the Vogue office. Even Kaia Gerber is wearing them, meaning this trend has legs.

Jolie-laide sneakers are the new Stan Smiths. Adidas's Stan Smith has reigned supreme as the coolest sneaker for upward of two years, but that trend was upended in 2017 with the rise of ugly-pretty kicks.

Balenciaga's weighty Triple S sneakers led the pack, followed by Prada's neon scuba shoe, Loewe's elfin suede sneakers, and Yeezy's Wave Runners. Then again, the pendulum might swing back to Stans soon—Vetements has plans to release a Stan Smith–inspired shoe this winter.

Mashed-up prints are the new shocking pink. We need optimism and happiness now more than ever. In 2017 that meant an abundance of floaty pink frocks from Rejina Pyo, Valentino, and Céline.

This coming spring, pink will still be going strong, but we'll see a new trend emerging too: Ultra-clashing prints in a range of bright colors.

At Marni, Francesco Risso mashed up florals and plaids, and the street style set has already been remixing optic florals-on-florals.

The micro purse is the new fanny pack. We're calling our favorite new bags the "carry-nothings." So small you can barely fit a credit card inside, these teensy totes already have the celebrity stamp of approval.

Rihanna, who started 2017's fanny pack trend, has been seen carrying Jacquemus's petite purse around Barbados. Coed runway shows are the new see-now-buy-now.

Remember when see-now-buy-now was fashion's hottest buzzword? In 2018, that will be replaced by coed. Following Gucci's move early this year, over a dozen fashion brands have announced that they will be blending their men's and women's shows.

With tired notions of gendered fashion going by the wayside, this is a phenomenon we expect to stick around for a while.

Cool girls are the new Insta-girls. Social media stars and the high-cheekboned sons and daughters of A-listers will always have a place in the fashion world, but 2017 saw a new crop of cool-girl models rise to the top.

Take Sophie Koella, the French-American model who had never walked a runway when we met her in 2016. This year, she became a muse to Chloé's Natacha Ramsay-Levi and a fashion world mainstay without losing any of her vivacious charm.

Alongside Koella are models like Selena Forrest and Grace Hartzel, whose personal style and energy seep into their modeling work. "I cast girls with strong personality," says Dior's artistic director, Maria Grazia Chiuri.

"That's what I want. I'm very happy that now there are a lot of models that have really strong personalities.".

Phoebe Philo Is Reportedly Leaving Céline

Phoebe Philo is reportedly exiting Céline after 10 years with the French brand, according to WWD. The Spring 2018 collection, debuting in March, will be her last, a source with with knowledge of the matter told the site.

Philo will also not work for another designer in the near future and her successor is expected to be announced in the coming months. In the meantime, the Céline team will design collections and adhere to the craftsmanship the house is renowned for, the source added.

However, at the time, LVMH categorically [denied] any imminent departure of Phoebe Philo from Céline..

Philo joined Céline in 2008, after a successful tenure at Chloé as creative director, which she inherited from Karl Lagerfeld in 1997, BoF reports.

She most recently showed her Spring 2018 collection at Paris Fashion Week in early October, featuring a playful but elevated range of suits, capes, printed dresses, and more.

How Smino Celebrates Black Excellence Through Music and Style | Daily Fashion - Duration: 12:33.

How Smino Celebrates Black Excellence Through Music and Style

It's a Saturday afternoon and Smino is calling as he's walking into a store in Chicago, where he spends most of his time.

After offering a quick hello, the 26-year-old rapper, born Christopher Smith Jr., starts chatting up the cashier and muffled voices can be heard.

Yet, just as quickly as the conversation begins, it's over, and he's happily detailing his childhood in St. Louis, Missouri with a laser-sharp focus and his Midwestern drawl.

He speaks with the same passion that produced one of the year's most celebrated debut albums, Blkswn, and earned him praise not just as one of the most promising new rappers to emerge from the Midwest, but as a genuine hip-hop visionary.

Smino proudly declares that he was born and raised in the Lou (as he affectionately does at most of his performances) and lived there as the youngest in a musical family of four sisters.

"I grew up in a house that went to church every Sunday. It was a bunch of music just always playing," he explains.

"Every time that I did something that showed I was remotely interested in music, all of those people pushed me to do it." Fast-forward one move to Chicago and a breakout single dubbed one of the year's "coolest love songs," and Smino will finish a stretch of 75 shows—some as support for T-Pain, others as the opener for SZA—this Saturday with Kribmas 2017.

Now in its second year, the concert sees Smino make a triumphant return home for the holidays in his beloved hometown's Delmar Hall.

With so many accolades earned in what continues to be an unforgiving year, what may be most impactful about Smino's rise is his unrelenting mission to be an uplifting voice for black culture.

"The number one thing I realized about being black in this country is that [people of color] all share the same type of struggle," he says.

"With this shit that's going on in America, you have to find your own thing that forms peace around your circle of people. Stick by that, and run with that shit.

There's really not much we can do except become our own communities." It's exactly what he has attempted to do, from the moment he began creating music and uploading it to SoundCloud three years ago.

In his 2016 EP Blkjuptr, Smino breaks down the struggle of being black in America, specifically illustrating what it's like to live as an outsider, made to feel like you belong on another planet.

"Hands up, they still shot, go Google the pictures," he raps on "Oxygen," punctuating his words at just the right moments to emphasize his raw frustration.

No doubt, the song is a visceral response to all of the innocent black lives that were lost over the last several years, but there was one tragedy in 2014 that powerfully affected his life.

"It was really when I was in St. Louis the morning that Mike Brown was killed," he says.

Smino had just played a show the night before and woke up hoping to celebrate with his friends. "Instead, you see Mike Brown laying somewhere you could walk up and down before.

They had a candlelight [vigil] for him. We all went out to that, and everybody my age in the city, and under and over, we were all out on the streets.

They had just picked his body up, and the street was super stained. It was so, so much blood. I had never seen that.".

Smino also recalls seeing the first brick thrown at a Ferguson police officer, in what he says prompted "a whole lot of mayhem and a whole lot of unorganized anger." Ultimately, it was seeing the vulnerability, the confusion, and the pain of everyone around him that led him to question his own voice.

"I feel like that energy made me think about what the effect [is] that I'm having on my folks," he says. "Am I really worth anything if I'm not able to help my people out?".

On Blkswn, he sounds more self-assured. Where he felt like an outsider in Blkjuptr, he has grown comfortable with being an outsider and living life on his own terms.

"My apologies I can't let y'all drain me/Smino-ly Bible I live by/I beat the odds like a drum line/And I ain't never in a rush/I ain't no Russian, I'm a Blkswn," he raps confidently on the album's title song.

He's still calling out injustices where he sees them—like the Academy Awards' ongoing diversity problem that sparked #OscarsSoWhite, which he references on "Blkoscars"—but he's also doing it with the knowledge that he does not have to write about any one topic.

As he says, his only obligation is being his "realest self.". That feeling applies to his style, as well, which Smino admits has hit its stride. "I wake up in the morning, literally every day, wondering what I should wear," he says.

"I'm the freshest I've ever been in my life right now." Part of it has to do with his newfound confidence.

Because he wants to be seen more, he is constantly experimenting to create new looks, most of which he documents on Instagram.

Where he once opted for a standard combination of jeans (distressed in some way), sneakers (usually Nike Air Force 1s), and T-shirts (often jerseys), he's now playing with textures, colors, and accessories.

Neon orange and green camouflage hoodies, mustard crushed velvet jackets, white teddy bear coats, pastel sneakers, and geometric sunglasses are just some of the pieces in his wardrobe, but they're only a fraction of what he mixes and matches.

The secret, he says, lies in the details: "The number one way to be fly is to rack up on shoes and accessories.

I got a lot of do-rags and a lot of shoes, and it makes it look like I have a lot of 'fits.".

Because he does not have a stylist—he's never met one that understood him or didn't try to change him—he's constantly on the hunt for new pieces and new ways to elevate his look.

Lately, he's been drawn to Yeezy boots, Off-White x Nike sneakers, Louis Vuitton x Supreme bandanas, Moncler coats, and Gucci-print do-rags. He rarely picks up high-end designer pieces.

"I like to wear shit that's fly," he says. "I don't like to wear crazy shit as far as logos on my body.

If it's Louis Vuitton, I'll pick things that don't have print all over, except for do-rags." The way Smino sees it, he is his own brand and wearing too many big names distracts from his actual job.

That said, he eagerly applauds Rihanna and Kanye for breaking into the fashion industry. "[They] make me hopeful," he says. "[Black people] always have the fucking influence. We're the reason fashion is amazing.

All of these designers can make all these clothes, but until we wear them, that shit is not fly.

So why don't we just make our own? And you know, that's what they're doing." With Yeezy, Smino likes how the clothes make people feel confident without using logos.

The reason it works, he says, is a result of Kanye's spirit carrying through the brand. "He makes you feel like you can be you 'cause he loves himself so much.

It's like, damn bro, I'm going to love me that much, too," he says. "As many times as the people or the media try to write him off, he still comes back every single time.

I feel like that's a real black legend.". It's a confidence he's trying to bring to his own merchandise for Zero Fatigue, a music collective he began with producer Monte Booker in 2014 that also includes Ravyn Lenae, Bari, and Jay2.

Each artist has their own individual sound and aspirations, and as a group, they manage to bounce off one another while showcasing each other's talents.

The crew's merchandise line is still in the early stages and only includes sweatpants, long-sleeved shirts, hoodies, and hats at the moment, but the plan is to grow it until it becomes a full-fledged collection.

"It's more of a lifestyle brand. I want fucking baby bags and strollers," he laughs. "Anything. I gotta get up and do it." Zero Fatigue's main goal is to carry on until their creations are done—not getting tired until everything is right.

With Smino helping lead the charge, growing it to greater heights is not so much a question as much as it is a guarantee.

A New Generation of Beautiful Loners Is Changing Seoul Fashion for the Better | Daily Fashion - Duration: 7:32.

A New Generation of Beautiful Loners Is Changing Seoul Fashion for the Better

It is just after midnight in Seoul, and the streets in Itaewon have flooded with local kids hopping between clubs.

Shots of flavored vodka and soju are passed around, tossed down throats and into tumblers of beer, and everyone dances together until sunrise in concrete rooms that smell of sweat.

It is this carefree image of Korean youth culture that has persisted until now.

Yet 20 minutes away in Yeonnam-dong, a quieter picture of rebellion has emerged: of 20-somethings, sitting alone in a café with a glass of wine and finding freedom in ordinary solitude.

"Nae mam daero" has become their rallying cry—"my way"—and it is one reason why Seoul fashion is on the cusp of a new creative high.

2017 was the year that the honjok, or loner, movement fully took root in Seoul; there are now more Koreans living alone than in couples or families.

Already an alien concept (it is standard to live with parents until marriage), the communal city has been shaken by so much more.

There is honsul (drinking alone) and honbap (eating alone) and a slew of little wine bars and hole-in-the-wall diners have popped up in Yeonnam-dong to cater to them—one can sit in a tidy cubicle with a private grill, turning single servings of short rib in front of a personal TV set.

Last fall, a popular TV drama called Honsul, or Drinking Solo, riffed on the trend, and there is an entire magazine called Singles: "a fashion and lifestyle magazine that helps single people to be happy and proud in their choice.".

Ahn starts her day in the kitchen of her studio apartment, in an Erika Cavallini blouse from Rare Market, paired with Goen. J shorts and a Scho Studio choker.

As with all things in Korea, it is impossible to separate this new independence movement from politics.

It began last summer at Ewha Women's University with the young women who launched peaceful protests against a corrupt official with ties to then–President Park Geun-hye.

They had always lived by the book, yet those same rules never applied to those in power. Fed up with the status quo, their voices grew so loud that they ultimately toppled her government.

Then there's the looming presence of North Korea, whose threatening existence is so deeply embedded in daily life.

But the rise of Donald Trump caused a shift: When things could collapse at any moment, the kids seemed to say, Why waste another second toeing the line? (No surprise,"YOLO" has also grown big.).

Nae mam daero—my way. Ahn spells it out on her 99%IS- sweater, paired with a simple slip and her own combat boots.

It takes shape in small ways: a solo trip to the movies, skipping the office happy hour for a night at home.

There is some concern among the older generation that the youths have become too focused on the self by moving away from community and family. There is always some danger in too much isolation.

It's one reason why many honjok have joined up, creating common kitchens and cooking collectives to thrive together, yet apart. Ultimately, it's about taking time for yourself.

It's about letting go of society's pressures—to get married by a certain age, to work for a steady salary, to never ask questions—and caring less what others think. This spirit pulses through the artistic heart of Seoul.

It is in model Ahreum Ahn, one of the coolest girls in the city, who chose to buck tradition and move out of her family home and into a cozy Cheongdam studio to further her dreams.

She is shot here by Young Jun Koo, himself a self-made photographer living on his own in Hannam-dong, shooting street editorials by day and zipping off on a motorbike to a gaming café by night.

It can be found at Rare Market, a concept shop whose owners, Jessica Jung and Dami Kwon, have the most rebellious buy in the city, including the sorts of covetable labels (Attico, Facetasm, Eckhaus Latta) that local department stores would have never stocked. Now, they guide the trends.

At Parc, a restaurant and hub for the fashion crowd, owner Pak Mogua set up a raw, intimate space—so unlike the chichi bistros of the time—to deliver the simple home cooking that singles might miss from their mother's kitchens.

Tucked into a corner with a bottle of soju and a bowl of stewed beef, it is the perfect spot to be alone.

More importantly, this new feeling is guiding the country's most promising designers—Bajowoo of 99%IS, Hyein Seo, Goen Jong of Goen.J, Sarah Cho of Scho Studio, and so many more, who refuse to work within set boundaries.

They are paving their own way, and so their designs stand strong beside the best emerging talent from around the world. Breaking free is a beautiful thing. Hair and makeup: Jung Ji-eun. Special thanks to ESteem Models. Photographed by Young Jun Koo.

Bahar Korçan | a fashion designer's inspirations of istanbul - Duration: 1:56.

I ask this question to myself what brings me up in the morning.

This is love, i guess. Love for work.

It's the creative process that satisfies me the most.

For a long period of my life, this process has been on fashion design.

For the last three years, it shows itself in different fields as well.

I paint, I write… I write scripts.

All of them are derivatives of this creative process.

There is some magic here, something magical…

Even the ground beneath us is 600-700 years old, or even more.

This feeling of existence makes Istanbul different from other cities.

It's a very motivated city, it constantly keeps changing.

For its age and fullness of experience at its core,

the city can reform and turn into something completely new.

This is an extremely interesting harvest in here.

It is a different mould...

It's a surprise what you will be getting at the end.

That's why I call it a magic.

To be inside this magic is a precious thing.

Because it constantly feeds you.

And there is a constant flow from these chutes...
