It’s tough not to appreciate a preppy fashion moment. While some outfits in the genre can feel overdone, Karlie Kloss recently proved why she’s such a style icon by stepping out in an assembly of pieces that somehow look like they were made for each other. Among them? A denim midi skirt paired with a ruffled blouse, a structured navy blazer, and brown ballet flats.
The effect was clean and tailored, not unlike the casually refined denim midi and yellow cardigan that Eva Mendes recently sported. If you’re feeling inspired, you can find the ingredients to recreate the look at Quince.
Stretch Denim 5-Pocket Midi Skirt
With its A-line silhouette and midi length, this is a close cousin of the styles worn by Kloss and Mendes. Quince’s denim is stretchy and soft, per shoppers, and one person noted that it “feels like a nicely worn-in pair of jeans.” The front slit is subtle, according to reviewers, falling to “just the right length” and adding an interesting visual element to the design. It works just as well with a Kloss-inspired ruffled blouse as it does with a tank top.
Organic Cotton Lace Ruffle Blouse
If you’re inspired by the old-world charm of Kloss’s outfit, try this blouse. Detailed with a hint of lace, the ruffled accent along the collar and front sets the top apart from standard button-down styles. It’s a classic with a romantic twist, making it a fun partner for something unexpected — like a denim midi or a pair of jeans. A shopper shared that the design looks “elegant without being over the top.”
Scuba Captain’s Convertible Blazer
A tailored blazer takes any outfit up a notch, whether you’re pairing it with matching trousers or throwing it on to dress up your denim. Quince’s version (which looks just like the Veronica Beard style that’s almost $700 more expensive) is convertible, so you can zip an insert into the jacket to completely change its look. Worn as it is, though, it exudes ivy heritage with its oversized brass buttons and double-breasted design. Hundreds of shoppers have sung its praises, describing it as “structured and polished.”
Italian Leather Pointed Bow Flats
Luxe leather flats can make any outfit look classier, from denim skirts to shorts. These are “comfy right out of the box,” according to customers, without requiring a break-in period. Reviewers also love the delicate bow accent on the vamp. They noted that it’s subtle but still makes a statement without being “too cutesy.”
