Jennifer Lawrence Wore Spring's Prettiest Color Trend With Controversial Flats
Spring's selection of color trends isn't exactly expected for the season, with gray, burgundy, and red all vying for the number one spot in fashion's ranking. One color, though, feels right at home for spring: butter yellow. And Jennifer Lawrence may have just shot it right up to the top of the trend list, passing by those shades mentioned above in the process.
On Thursday, the No Hard Feelings actress was spotted in her New York City neighborhood wearing a butter-yellow Jil Sander shacket that she paired casually with a white tee, a low-rise pair of relaxed-fit jeans, a Bottega Veneta bag, and Alaïa's viral and quite controversial mesh flats. She finished the daytime errands outfit with oval-shaped sunglasses and a slightly Western-inspired Celine belt. Her pastel-colored cashmere top layer added just the right touch of spring to the otherwise seasonally ambiguous ensemble, thus creating a perfect outfit to copy from now until peak summer hits.
Ahead, shop the pretty color trend that after having been spotted on Lawrence, has a guaranteed spot on this season's most popular color trends list. (Yes, she really does have that level of influence).
