There's nothing quite like a crisp button-up shirt tucked into high-waisted jeans, and Reese Witherspoon's elevated take on this formula is a reminder that this combination never fails to impress.
As we enter the new year and stow away our favourite partywear, chic yet easy-to-recreate looks are very much needed. Similar to jeans and a blazer outfits, a crisp poplin shirt styled tucked into denim nails the smart-casual dress code, working for all January plans, from office days to weekend dinner reservations.
In a recent Instagram post, Reese wore a deep burgundy striped shirt, tucked into high-waisted wide-leg jeans. Around her shoulders, she tied the arms of a dark chocolate brown jumper – a super chic styling move.
She teams the mid-wash jeans with a leather belt that features shiny gold hardware, and accessorises with minimalist gold hoop earrings.
Reese was spotted wearing this combination in a video whilst introducing her December book club choice, The Heir Apparent by Rebecca Armatige.
