Jennifer Lopez always knows how to add a subtle twist to her look, whether she's adding a mermaid touch to business attire or layering a fluffy fur coat over a gray tracksuit.

It took place on Sunday afternoon This is me… now: A love story Star surprised us again as she wore a chic ensemble made up of different shades of blue. The look included a pair of balloon jeans that took cues from the polarizing “dirty denim” trend, a Y2k fad that's making a comeback.

The light-wash wide-leg pants featured sandy discoloration along Lopez's knees, making it appear as if she had kneeled in the dirt shortly before her outing began. If you recall, we've seen more extreme versions of this trend in recent years, like Balenciaga's “super-destroyed” baggy pants from the Summer 2023 collection or Diesel's ongoing production of their dusty denim look.

With J.Lo's classy fit, this touch added an exciting contrast to the ensemble, helping to dress it up and provide a striking color change. There was a sense that Lopez was trying to tap into '90s street style, and it completely transformed an ensemble that would have otherwise been simply categorized as quiet luxury.

For the rest of her outfit, the “Can't Get Enough” singer wore a royal blue turtleneck, which she layered under a slightly darker peacoat. As for accessories, Lopez kept the color palette consistent with a pair of sky blue heels and a water blue quilted mini Chanel bag. She even had a touch of blue in her oversized sunglasses, which featured gradient lenses that transitioned from navy blue to gold. Finally, she added a pair of chunky gold hoop earrings and gold rings, as well as bright red accents with her lipstick and nails.
