The One Thing

Our series The One Thing is a Sparknotes version of the products, rituals, and moments your favorite celebrities and influencers swear by—their go-tos, must-haves, and can’t-live-withouts. So go ahead—take a brief, intimate peek into the lives of your favorites through the things (and people, and moments) they hold dear.

When I first sit down with Chloe Kim, her two Olympic gold medals make me assume our lives are worlds apart. But as we talk, we uncover surprising overlaps: an affinity for Korean skincare, an enduring obsession with crop tops, and a penchant for sourcing vintage designer bags from Japan. Just like her snowboarding skills, the 24-year-old's fashion sense is something she’s mastered over time with precision and dedication.

Which is why her latest collaboration with iconic surf and snow brand Roxy makes so much sense. The 7-piece capsule is her third collection with the brand, and features snow pants, jackets, and mittens in soothing shades of blue and green, with prices ranging from $75 to $200. In honor of the collection, Byrdie caught up with Kim to chat beauty and style. Ahead, everything from her K-beauty faves to her winter closet staples.

The One Song That Always Gets Her Hyped Up

"To get hyped up, I need to listen to Meg Thee Stallion. Before the Olympics, I was listening to 'Megan's Piano.' It just reminds me that I'm the baddest."

The One Thing She'll Be Wearing All Winter

"I love the snow pants from my collab with Roxy. I do love the sage green color because I just love those washed pastel vibes."

The One Thing She Does Before Every Competition

"I always knock on my board before I compete to un-jinx myself. Four knocks, because four is my lucky number."

The One Beauty Product That's Always in Her Bag

"My skin gets so dry when I'm on the mountain. So I moisturize, moisturize, and moisturize. I just started using the Medicube Collagen Night Wrapping Mask. I also can't snowboard without a little glam—a little blush, a little concealer, a little mascara. Maybe there'll be cute boys on the mountain!"

The One Outfit That Always Makes Her Feel Confident

"I love a skirt, crop top, and jacket moment. Or with some low-rise, baggy jeans. I feel like crop tops are always a constant, because I just got abs for the first time in my life. So I want to flaunt it. All those hours of Pilates paid off."
