Dakota Johnson Wore the Quietly Sexy Denim Trend I'm All in On - InStyle

When you hear the word denim, you don’t immediately think of the word “sexy.” Sheer dresses are sexy. Lace-y tops are also sexy. I think we can all agree on those. Denim? Not everyone would think blues are sexy, but I say they are, depending on the silhouette and how you style them, of course. Dakota Johnson just demonstrated this to a T. 

The actress was photographed out and about in the Big Apple. Given her cool-girl style, her two-piece look isn’t all that shocking; Johnson keeps it relatively simple with her outfits, but simple doesn’t equal boring or basic; just peek at her ensemble as proof. She played with proportions by pairing an itty-bitty black tank top that exposed her midriff with oversized, low-rise blue jeans with an exaggerated hem. The big pants, little top combo is back to play—and Johnson officially kicked off its reign. 

While you normally wouldn’t think baggy jeans are sexy, I think they’re quietly, subtly just that: sexy. They’re alluring and daring in their bagginess; the sexiness comes, in part, from the fact that you don’t need to wear skin-tight bottoms. Because oftentimes, the sexiest pieces are those that don’t try too hard, and baggy jeans definitely don’t.

Not to mention, baggy jeans are incredibly comfy and perfect for the summer months—not only do they make for a sexy outfit, but also a practical one. No wonder Johnson wore her pair on a hot NYC day, paired with a teeny top that’s also a summer must-have. The actress rounded out her easy going outfit with a pair of mint-colored Adidas Sambas, proving the two things: Sambas are the ‘It’ sneakers of the season, as are pastel-colored kicks, the perfect in-between if white kicks are too bland for you. Jennifer Garner recently wore mint green kicks, and frankly, after seeing Johnson’s style, I’m now convinced I need a pair, too. 

Baggy jeans + teeny-tiny top + sneakers = the summer outfit of my dreams. It’s comfy, but it’s also cool and sexy, and that’s all I could ever want in a look. Shop more baggy jeans inspired by Johnson’s below.
