Celebs in Their 30s Are Styling Low-Rise Baggy Jeans With This One Sandal Color Trend

Jeans and flip-flops have become the go-to outfit combination for fashion people who want to look chic in the most low-effort way possible. This pairing works so well because it employs the "wrong shoe theory"—the flip-flops, worn out of context, inject an unexpected element that makes the jeans look more interesting. Plus, the easy, slide-on nature of the shoe perfectly matches the relaxed vibe of the denim.

Take Elsa Hosk, for example. Sharing a carousel of images of maternity-style outfits on Instagram, Hosk posed in one of them wearing low-rise baggy jeans in a vintage-like wash. She styled them with a plaid zip-up jacket and white thong-style wedge sandals. For accessories, she opted for a white east-west Chanel bag and oversize sunglasses, two trend-forward items that pulled the look together.

On the opposite coast, in New York City, Zoey Deutch was spotted this week in a similar casual denim outfit. She wore a white ribbed tank (one that looks like Kendall Jenner's favorite Hanes top) and low-rise cuffed jeans. In terms of white sandals, Deutch opted for flat flip-flops and Prada's version of an east-west bag—the celeb-loved Bonnie.

All of that said, this doesn't mean black flip-flops are out; it just suggests that white ones are the chicer option at the moment. Much like the new feeling of wearing white jeans after a long hiatus, these sandals feel crisp and provide a stylishly unexpected touch to an outfit.

No one is asking me, but I'm sold on the pairing. If I plan to wear jeans this summer, I will be wearing a baggy pair with white flip-flops. Keep scrolling to see the styles that I am bookmarking and considering for my own wardrobe.
