Emma Roberts Makes The Case For Overalls

Just because overalls were one of your wardrobe mainstays before you could dress yourself doesn’t mean they don’t have a place in your grown-up closet. Just look at Emma Roberts, who expertly elevated her denim onesie with the help of some understated layers, a few smart accessories, and a sophisticated color scheme. Seriously, have you ever seen overalls look so straight-up sleek?

Earlier this week, she caught a flight wearing a pair of Elizabeth and James overalls in crisp black denim. Underneath, she wore a classic heather gray T-shirt with the sleeves rolled up just so. Channeling her inner Parisian (maybe she was heading to France?), she added a Breton stripe cashmere scarf — which doubles as a travel blanket — and a bright red Longchamp tote. She nixed sneakers and gave the laid-back outfit a big-time upgrade in the form of Balenciaga cutout boot that lent a luxe feel to the whole look. If you haven’t copped a pair of overalls yet, the time is now. And get the rest of Emma’s outfit while you’re at it.
