The 2-Piece Model Outfit That's Everywhere

It used to be that the outfit most synonymous with the phrase “model off duty” was a leather jacket, skinny jeans, and ankle boots. And for the most part, that kind of effortlessly cool look still reigns supreme. But with the new crop of young models that’s taken over the fashion world, we’ve noticed one combination in particular that It girls are opting for on days off. Relaxed yet utterly cool (and a little bit sexy, too), models are pairing their long-sleeve crop tops with relaxed track pants, joggers, or wide-leg pants, proving that when it comes to showing some skin, it’s all about balance.
