Here's How to Get That "Supermodel on the Go" Look IRL
Whether you're getting dressed for a day of errands or a cross-country flight, nailing that perfect casual-but-put-together outfit can be harder than it looks. Comfort is key, but let things get too athleisure or too lounge-y, and you may end up regretting not having stepped it up just a bit more.
So when Kendall Jenner was spotted looking so on point while out and about (styled by the amazing Monica Rose, of course), I couldn't wait to steal her casual-cool look. The individual pieces are super simple, and in fact you probably already own most of them: gray hoodie, black turtleneck, moto jacket, leggings, booties, and easy accessories. Yes, it all sounds pretty basic, but the way everything comes together will have you looking anything but!
To really nail Kendall's look, there are two key elements you can't skip.

First, the turtleneck. It's unexpected, adds polish and cool-girl edge, and keeps everything from looking boring. I'm wearing this AYR version ($125), but any black turtleneck, including this J.Crew cult favorite ($30), is going to get the job done.

Second, while this outfit would be cute with sneakers, definitely try it with booties. They elevate the look and give it some cool cred without sacrificing comfort. This pair from Stuart Weitzman ($283, originally $565) is my go-to for something classic with a little attitude.

Add in the other pieces and the end result is effortless, cool, and secretly supercozy — you're basically wearing sweats, afterall!

So while us civilians may never work it in a Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, walk for Karl, or star in a Calvin Klein campaign, at least now we can all score Kendall's perfect off-duty look.
