Jessica Alba Shares Her Favorite Skinny-Jean Outfit Formula

This week, we had the fortunate chance to get the full lowdown on Jessica Alba's DL1961 collection in a Facebook Live interview. There, the first-time designer talked us through every style, including the chic high-rise skinnies she was wearing (the JA x DL No. 1 Trimtone Skinny Jeans in Battle, $188), which begged the question: What's her go-to outfit for skinny jeans?
"How I'm wearing it now," she said with a laugh. Alba went on to explain that she likes to mix high-low pieces and stick to coordinating shades to take the guesswork out of getting dressed. "I've been really liking the Who What Wear for Target line especially at the office and then going for drinks at night. It's that mix of high-low. I've also been doing a lot of tonals, and I'll do all one color a lot," she says.
While the actress turned entrepreneur favors a minimalistic and sensible approach to styling her skinny jeans, she likes to accessorize with bold pieces to incorporate more color into her ensembles. "I'll wear a fun shoe or bag. You can have a lot of fun with accessories." Could this outfit formula be more foolproof? We don't think so!
