Whether it's highlighting the perfect moto jacket model Kaia Gerber can't stop wearing or the $68 jeans that have garnered a cult following in Hollywood, there's nothing we love more than uncovering the products (and trends) that seem to be popping up repeatedly everywhere from the streets of L.A. to the streets of New York City. Why? Because when some of our favorite style stars wear something not just once but countless times, it becomes the ultimate investment piece—one we think our readers will be particularly fond of.
Over the past few months, we've kept a close style eye on model and cool girl Sofia Richie and noticed one common piece among her recent looks. She's wearing the same pair of jeans in countless ensembles. And after a bit of research, we discovered that these perfect '80s-inspired pants hail from luxury fashion house Balenciaga.
The high-waisted jeans, which Richie owns in a classic blue wash as well as in sleek black, feature a four-button fastening and are cut to perfectly replicate the ever-popular '80s mom jeans—a decade currently in a full fashion revival. The best part? They're so versatile, and as Richie proves, they can easily be dressed down for a day of shopping or dressed up with a sleek coat for a fancy event. Read on to see how she styles her favorite Balenciaga jeans on four different occasions, and then shop a pair for yourself.
