When it comes to getting dressed in a flash, we know not to overcomplicate things. Sometimes simple is best, and it'll surely get you out the door faster.

But just because an outfit is easy to execute, doesn't mean it has to be boring. Take Gigi's latest ensemble, for example, mostly made up of a cropped sweater, boyfriend jeans, and slip-ons. On it's own, it's just OK, but add a brown leather jacket and — BAM! — it's something we're dying to copy. The model's quick styling hack proves that the addition of one key piece can pull a look together, taking it from "eh" to wow-worthy in practically no time.

Scroll through to see and shop Gigi casual-yet-elevated look, then keep this idea on reserve for your next lazy morning.

Gigi just solved our ultimate outfit dilemma: how to make a simple look somewhat statement-making. The trick is that one piece that pulls it all together!

In Gigi's case, it was a brown leather jacket, which added a little something extra.

Plus, while we're so used to seeing basic black jackets everywhere, brown is a great and easy way to switch things up while staying on trend. We need one in our closets, STAT!
