One of the best things about New York City is that you never see the "expected" thing. There's always a surprise around the corner, and that includes people wearing different outfit combinations than the obvious choice. Case in point: Jennifer Lawrence was recently spotted in the city during one of this summer's many heatwaves donning an all-white linen outfit that she stylized with unique, interesting touches that made the ensemble feel special. For starters, she added a turquoise, beaded necklace with a large pendant, as well as a burgundy-colored vintage Fendi Mamma Baguette bag and oversized The Row Maud sunglasses. My favorite part of her look, though, was her choice of cognac-brown sandals. Sure, she could have worn a pair in classic black, but the rich shade of brown brought her whole look together.

Unlike black and white—a chic combo, yes, but a harsh one at times, too—white pants and brown sandals is consistently effortless-looking and sophisticated. It's a perfect pairing for a hot day like the ones we've been experiencing regularly in NYC in 2025. Whether you recreate the pairing with more tailored trousers and kitten heels or go the low-key route with drawstring pants and flip-flops, the outcome won't change. White pants and brown sandals will always look good together—period.
