It doesn’t matter if Jennifer Lopez is wearing a fancy gown on the red carpet or her best wide-leg jeans and a sweatshirt while out running errands, the star always, and I mean, always looks fantastic. The 55-year-old singer seems to nail it with every outfit choice and manages to make even the simplest of ensembles look fancy.
A perfect example of her fashion know-how is the outfit she recently shared on Instagram. JLo posted a picture of herself wearing an oversized white T-shirt with beige wide-leg trousers, and she finished the look with a pair of Nike x Commes Des Garcons Cortez Platform Trainers, a soft grey cap and her signature aviator sunglasses.
Rested on the sofa next to her was an Hermes Birkin, too. Apart from the very luxurious designer bag, Jennifer’s combination is a low-key and comfy-looking outfit, and it proves that even everyday basics really can have a high-end feel.
The star looked really comfortable in her ensemble, and it’s one of those outfits that would be perfect for travelling, a trip to the shops or just a day at home. The soft and muted colour palette feels very clean and classic, and her sporty accessories added some oomph without being too much. Want to get in her relaxed vibe, as much as I do? I have rounded up some similar buys below to recreate her look.

Elasticated waistbands are key for serious comfort, and this stretchy pair will do the job nicely. Wear with fresh white like the celebrity, or add some oomph with a pop of red or orange on top.
Oversized T-shirts have a fresh and modern feel to them while being lovely and breathable during the hot weather. This simple shape will work just as well with barrel leg jeans and sandals.
Jennifer's particular platform trainers are no longer available, but this similar coloured pair also has a chunky sole to add some lift. They will give you some extra height while still being supportive and easy to wear all day.
Sporty caps are great for a sunny day and can add a a contemporary spin to any ensemble. A soft grey hat like this one will work with every colour or print so you'll get plenty of use out of it over the coming months.
Don't have the budget for a Hermes bag? You can recreate the look with this quiet luxury handbag, that has a similar moc-croc finish. Use it to pep up a tailored blazer and jeans outfit or sling it over your shoulder with a boho dress.
When it comes to sunglasses trends, the aviator always stays strong in the style stakes. The retro-inspired frames will make an effortlessly cool finishing touch to your outfit and will manage to feel very fresh each summer.
Loose, wide-leg trousers like JLo’s are not only easy to wear, but are surprisingly flattering as the floaty shape will sit at your waist and then skim over hips for a leg-lengthening finish. Wear yours with a basic tee, or give them a slightly smarter spin with a fresh white shirt or a fine knit jumper.
Every wardrobe should include a very comfy pair of bottoms, and a soft beige pair like Jennifer’s is a wise investment – they will look chic however you wear them and will add an A-lister feel to your casual weekend plans.
