Between the resurgence of '90s style and the most recent trends from the runways, trend fatigue is what many of us are feeling right now, there's no question that simple style is reigning supreme. A scan through the latest celebrity street style confirms this: the best-dressed stars are stepping out in refreshingly simple outfits—especially with jeans.

From Laura Harrier to Olivia Wilde and Gigi Hadid, celebrities have been eschewing more flamboyant and wild street style looks for much simpler ones, providing us with droves of styling inspiration that couldn't be any easier to re-create for ourselves.

Even when these style stars opted for more simple denim ensembles, they still managed to look chic, proving that less can certainly be more as long as you have the right pieces. In fact, some of the best looks come down to a specific combination basics. To help break down why these denim ensembles work, we've rounded up the seven simple pieces that feature in recent celebrity outfits with jeans, from belts to blazers.

During NYFW, actress Laura Harrier opted for a low-key look while attending the Khaite show and we'll be certainly copying the simple jeans outfit this entire season. Harrier chose a flight jacket from the brand with a white tank and sneakers, but we'd argue it's her leather belt that subtly ties the whole look together.
