Charlize Theron Midi Dress and Denim Jacket Look for Less

Charlize Theron black maxi dress and denim jacket look
Family dinner night, but make it chic. How chic, you might ask? Charlize Theron level. She recently stunned in a casual midi dress and denim jacket while out for a family dinner in Rome. I love how she took a mom uniform classic combo that you might already own and elevated it with beautiful accessorizing pieces. Let’s take this look and recreate it for less!

What could be considered my ultimate mom uniform is the classic black dress and denim jacket combination. It has not steered me wrong yet and it can be dressed up with heels and gold jewelry, or dressed down with sneakers and a baseball cap. Charlize opted for a midi, almost bodycon style dress, similar look found here at Old Navy (with sizes up to 4X). Coupled with this Kohl’s light wash denim jacket, this is an unbeatable combination and the foundation for a timeless look. I love how both pieces are so versatile, you will continually reach for them!

The pair of sunnies with white frames really pop, an unexpected choice in an outfit of all neutrals. These $13 Amazon frames will be sure to do the trick. And some of the edgier elements in her look include studded sandals - like these $25 Steve Maddens - and a quilted purse with gold chain. Charlize’s is YSL Jamie bag, linked here. Incorporating small amounts of mixed metals, unexpected colors, and the confidence of a supermodel will really help take this look from mom uniform classic to a chic and modern look!
