If there’s one thing Jennifer Lawrence excels at—beyond delivering Oscar-winning performances, making awkward moments funny enough to send Jonathan Anderson into fits of laughter, or rallying over 3 million followers when she finally joined Instagram—it’s knowing how to dress herself season after season. In summer, she gravitates toward La Ligne and Leset tanks and pants, jorts, slip skirts paired with graphic tees and novelty caps for an edge, and a standout vintage Prada or Fendi bag. Light fabrics, a splash of color. In fall and winter, she layers skillfully and embraces a range of textures: skirt-trousers that add flair to classic shapes, luxurious knits, and outerwear from Scandinavian labels like By Malene Birger. But it’s during those transitional periods that Jennifer Lawrence truly stands out. Dressing for in-between weather can be tricky—warm in the sun, cooler in the shade, with rain always a possibility. How do you stay true to your personal style when the weather is so unpredictable? Enter J-Law. The actor was spotted out in New York City yesterday wearing a relaxed teal sweater with the cuffs rolled up. The knit felt luxurious but light enough not to seem bulky. A splash of color is also a Lawrence trademark, and this shade of blue seems poised to carry over from summer into fall. Plus, there are her newly cut butterfly bangs. Underneath, she had on a pearl slip dress that fell to the knee, and brown Sperry boat shoes—perfect footwear for the changing seasons. For accessories, she carried a croc Hermès handbag (left open at the clasp, as seems to be the trend), wore a knotted gold necklace, and sported black sunglasses. Her almost rusty blonde hair and soft bangs were styled straight and natural. A pop of teal is a go-to for J Law.
