8 Autumn Outfit Trends Celebrities Are Creating With Just the Basics
If you asked me to write a story about celebrities wearing complicated outfits, rest assured that it would be long and likely devoid of any outfits you'd actually be able to re-create. Celebs have stylists to help them and red carpets and paparazzi to contend with, so trust me—I get it. But from time to time (well, pretty often actually), celebrities will wear outfits that are actually quite simple and easy to re-create.
I made it my mission to look through every single recent celebrity outfit I could find to bring you the least complicated ones. These eight outfits are made up entirely of basics that you might already have in your closet, and if you don't, I found excellent versions for you. Read on for all the easy celeb-approved looks you'll want to wear this season and beyond and to shop everything you need to make them yours.
