When it comes to celebrity style, there's no doubt we love swooning over red carpet moments and statement outfits, but the truth is stars love their basic jeans just as much as we do—inadvertently providing us with plenty of inspiration on how to style our denim from season to season.
Lately, I've noticed some of our favorite fashion-forward celebrities wearing their jeans exclusively with flat shoes. And honestly, I'm really into it. While I love jeans and sneakers (a topic we cover in-depth here at WWW), I'm often seeking more polished flat-shoe options to style with my jeans that are effortless, easy, and trend-forward, and they have the ability to take my basic denim outfit to next-level chic. Below, I'm sharing six foolproof celebrity jeans-and-flat-shoes outfits I want to copy immediately. Something tells me you'll want to wear them too!
