As I stand in front of my closet each morning, trying to decide what to wear, I often find myself asking the same question: WWJD? What would Jennifer do? Jennifer Lawrence has always been a style icon, especially when it comes to her street style. While she dazzles on the red carpet, it’s her off-duty looks that truly inspire me.
Over the years, Jennifer has evolved from a well-dressed city girl to a fashion risk-taker, all while staying true to her personal style. Her bold choices have influenced how I approach my own wardrobe, even without buying anything new. Here are three valuable fashion lessons I’ve learned from Jennifer Lawrence in 2025.
1. Layering Up: One trend Jennifer embraced this past summer was layering a lace-trimmed slip dress under oversized tees and colorful trousers. This unexpected combination added a touch of whimsy to her outfits, inspiring me to incorporate similar layering techniques into my wardrobe. By wearing a tiered lace tank under sweaters, I can add a playful element to an otherwise simple look.
2. Elevating the Basics: Black and white may seem basic, but Jennifer showed us that these colors can be anything but boring. By pairing an oversized white tee with a sculptural black miniskirt and fun accessories, she elevated a simple outfit into a fashion statement. Following her lead, I now pair my white tees with statement skirts for a similar effect.
3. Lightening Up a Little: Fashion doesn’t always have to be serious, and Jennifer reminded us of that with her playful accessories. From a silly baseball cap to a whimsical book tote, she added touches of fun to her outfits. Taking a cue from her, I now throw on a quirky baseball cap for a touch of levity in my own looks.
By following Jennifer Lawrence’s style cues, I’ve been able to refresh my wardrobe and approach fashion with a new perspective. Her fearless approach to fashion has encouraged me to take more risks and have fun with my outfits. Just like Jennifer, I’m learning to mix and match unexpected pieces to create unique and exciting looks.
