Jessica Biel [1] is the type of style star who doesn't surprise us, in the sense that we're certain she'll always look flawless. And whether she's walking along the street or down the red carpet, she has a way of making even the most straightforward, demure looks appear sexy [2]. Maybe that's why we get most excited to see her in laid-back outfits — running errands, walking her dog, and holding hands with Justin Timberlake [3] — you know, the stuff we like to do. Because when Jessica sends out casual vibes, she makes even the simplest styling tricks seem easy to pull off.

Here, Jessica went for a slightly patriotic red, white, and blue look. But, zoom in on her heel-embellished ballet slippers, and you'll find she's also mixing navy and black, which can, at times, be hard to achieve. The key is to balance neutral staples — a standard, bright tote bag and denim jacket, for example — with a busy print, like the one on Jessica's pleated skirt. We promise it'll all come together to suggest totally effortless style.
