A black top, blue jeans, and black heels — those three ingredients comprise the ultimate recipe for a nighttime-approved outfit. It's a tried-and-true combination that never lets you down, but sometimes it can get a bit, well, overdone. Thankfully, we have street style queen Jennifer Aniston [1] to rely on for a dose of inspiration for how to kick things up a notch and avoid "basic" territory.
The actress was recently spotted out and about wearing an otherwise simple outfit — a black blouse and denim — but she amped things up by throwing on a tuxedo-style jacket that looks like it was taken right out of her husband's closet [2]. Her black menswear-inspired blazer had an oversize, slightly boxy silhouette, and she wore it draped over her shoulders, leaving her arms free for ample comfort.
Jennifer styled her tuxedo-like blazer with a silky black shirt and straight-leg jeans [3], which she cuffed at the ankle to show off her ankle-strap Tabitha Simmons heels [4] in all their glory. The actress finished the sleek look with a cognac Chloé backpack [5] (yes, brown and black actually do look decent together!) and a chunky watch and matching bangle.
Ahead, scope out Jennifer's polished outfit, then keep reading to shop for similar menswear-inspired jackets for yourself.
