Christmas is around the corner, and that means it's time to adorn your home in all things red and green (if you haven't already!). Over the weekend, Jennifer Lopez, Ben Affleck, and their kids went shopping for Christmas trees to really get into the holiday spirit, and it looks like the actress took a little bit of inspiration from her surroundings with her outfit.
Like the style icon that she is, Lopez decided to brighten up her houndstooth coat, a staple winter pattern that so many celebrities including Hailey Bieber and Kate Middleton return to year after year. While dark hues are the common choice for houndstooth, the actress went for a bold lime green pattern that added a daytime feel to her casual holiday shopping 'fit.
She paired the winter-approved coat with gold hoops, white sneakers, and trendy wide-leg jeans (which Hollywood has been obsessing over lately). Whether you choose to wear it during the day or at night, the edgy yet sophisticated vibe of houndstooth is unmatched, and you can shop the print — in classic shades or vibrant hues — for as little as $33 at Nordstrom, Amazon, and ASOS.
