Newsflash: Models aren’t only good for major fashion campaigns and runways. These days, they’re celebrated just as much for their off-duty style—and one of the originals that kicked off our obsession with model-off-duty style? Gisele Bündchen, of course. The supermodel turns 36 today, and to celebrate, we’re doing what we do best—dissecting her faultless style.
What have we discovered? Gisele’s go-to piece on days when she’s not teaching Jimmy Kimmel how to walk a runway or shooting magazine covers (or returning to the runway for that matter), is a simple pair of jeans. The model follows a simple formula, of keeping her look neutral with simple crew neck sweaters, leather jackets, and button up shirts. She makes a statement with her accessories, opting for interesting details on her shoes (like bows and buckles) and adding fine jewels. Lucky for us, her style is super-simple to recreate.
Check out Gisele’s best denim moments below and then shop similar styles!
The ripped knees give these a worn-in feel.
