It's no secret celebrities love jeans, as they wear them everywhere from the airport to red carpet events. They also somehow manage to put together the coolest denim outfits we all end up copying. (Leave it to Hollywood to keep reinventing a classic staple like denim and making them feel fresh.) They usually do this by pairing them with pieces like chic coats, pretty tops, trendy bags, and beautiful footwear.
