The relentless hip and thoroughly original Gwen Stefani reminds us that busy moms need not resort to flip-flops and sweats for a weekend outing with the family. Gwen has always been an expert of the effortless sporty-dressy mix; I can count the number of times I’ve seen her without an impeccable red lip on one hand, yet she never looks like she’s trying to glam it up. This look is a perfect example: slouchy trousers slung on casually and paired with a cropped leather jacket and stretchy striped tank. But what punches it up are the accessories. A rumpled, flowing scarf, woven belt, and stiletto booties worn like they’re sneakers elevate the look from ordinary to arresting. These are elements we all have in our wardrobe. Let’s thank Gwen for reminding us it’s all about the way we put pieces together – you might have a new outfit sitting in your closet that you didn’t know existed.
