Last Thursday, Jennifer Lopez was seen leaving the trendy Soho French brasserie, Balthazar, showcasing her impeccable style just a day after celebrating her 55th birthday. The multi-talented star continues to prove that age is just a number, as she blended high fashion with a relaxed, chic vibe in her latest street style look.

Lopez donned an oversized white blazer with unique cut-outs on the sleeves, creating a striking cape-like illusion. The linen jacket is a perfect choice for the summer weather. Underneath, she wore a simple white crop top, highlighting her toned midriff and adding a touch of casual coolness.

Complementing her top half, the “On the Floor” singer opted for light-wash blue barrel jeans that featured a relaxed, flowy fit. The jeans provided a laid-back counterpoint to the structured blazer. Her choice of denim not only emphasized comfort but also showcased her ability to blend different fashion elements.

However, it was her footwear that truly elevated the outfit. Lopez wore a pair of platform sandal heels that peeked out from beneath the hem of her jeans with every step. The sandals featured a wooden sole and multiple white straps that added a bohemian flair to her ensemble. The height from the platform heels added a flattering elongation to her silhouette, while the design ensured she stayed on-trend.

To complete her look, Lopez accessorized with oversized aviator sunglasses. She carried a small black clutch, perfectly balancing the light tones of her outfit and adding a hint of contrast.

As temperatures rise and summer comes into full effect, celebrities like Jennifer Aniston and Victoria Justice are stepping out in the summer-approved footwear. The versatile silhouette comes in an array of styles, catering to every occasion. Whether it’s a relaxed everyday look like Lopez’s chic platform sandals or a more polished option fit for the red carpet, there’s something to suit everyone’s taste.
