Jennifer Lawrence doesn’t follow fashion rules. She rewrites them. Just when the rest of us are swapping sandals for boots, the 35-year-old actress steps out in New York wearing toe-loop sandals, ripped jeans, and a baseball cap like it is mid-July. It is officially fall, but she clearly didn’t get the memo. Or more likely, she did, and just didn’t care.
This outfit wasn’t a one-off, either. Lawrence has been on a run lately, bringing back looks people either love or roll their eyes at. And somehow, she always makes it work. She’s not just wearing clothes. She is challenging what “stylish” even means right now.
Jennifer Lawrence Wears Sandals in Fall, Doesn’t Flinch
Most celebrities lean into layers and boots the second the leaves hit the ground. Not Jennifer Lawrence. On a crisp fall Tuesday, she wore sandals like she was on her way to the beach. The sandals, a toe-loop pair from The Row, were peak summer. But instead of pairing them with flowy linen, she went the opposite way: baggy, ripped jeans, a plain white tee, and a baseball cap.
It looked thrown together in the best way. The accessories were anything but casual, though. Her gold Sophie Buhai necklace, sleek DMY sunglasses, and studded Gimaguas bag added just enough edge to pull the whole thing together. The mix of fancy and relaxed is exactly what makes Lawrence’s looks so hard to pin down and so fun to watch.
Lawrence Revived That Y2K Trend We Thought Was Dead
Jennifer Lawrence didn’t stop with fall sandals. A few months back, the "No Hard Feelings" actress resurrected a fashion choice that most stylists left behind in the early 2000s. We are talking about the skirt-over-pants combo. Yep, that one.

A statement pendant, Ray-Bans, and a Ralph Lauren cap added structure to the look. A suede tote and black Havaianas grounded it all. The whole thing screamed “cool girl walking to get coffee,” not “Halloween 2005.” And suddenly, that dreaded Y2K mashup looked fresh again.
Flip-Flops Aren’t Just for the Beach Anymore
It is not just about what Jennifer Lawrence wears. Rather, it is when she wears it. Flip-flops in the city used to mean you were underdressed or forgot to check the weather. But brands like The Row have turned these once-basic sandals into high-fashion must-haves. And Lawrence has jumped on that train full force.
She is part of the wave turning what used to be a lazy-day staple into something deliberately chic. Think less “forgot my real shoes,” more “this was the plan all along.” She is not alone either. Gigi Hadid and Kylie Jenner are also big fans of the upgraded flip-flop look. But Lawrence brings a different energy.

The fashion world needs more of that. She wears what she wants, mixes pieces that "shouldn't" go together, and pulls it off like she is just running errands. That approach gives her more power than any red carpet gown ever could.
Jennifer Lawrence’s Jewelry Might Say More Than Her Outfits
Earlier this year, Jennifer Lawrence wore a necklace with two standout pendants: a “C” and an “L.” Fans quickly caught on. “C” is likely for her first child, Cy. The “L” could hint at the name of her second baby, born in April, though she hasn’t made anything public yet.
