Emma Watson has a magical ability to take basics you might have in your own closet and make something beautiful with it. She stepped out at Paris Fashion Week in a classic jeans and button down ensemble, with several enchanting and modern touches. Blending in with the supermodels themselves, Emma Watson’s street style is unmatched—and I want to emulate it!

A spin on the classic white button down, the tie front trend is here to stay, according to this look. Untied, half tucked, gives an effortless style to an otherwise chic staple. This option from Macy’s can be worn tied or untied, and is available in several colors!

On top of that, Emma opted for a bold and beautiful coat with an oversized, drapey feel. To get the look, this H&M drapey cape jacket is impossibly sophisticated and incredibly cute. Perfect for a day look over some basics, or a night out atop a cocktail dress.

Bringing this look together are the modern elements that marry Emma Watson’s classic style with her fashion-forward side. The distressed jeans in a trendy wash are making me want to pair grey washed jeans with everything I own. I will always go back to Old Navy jeans, and this extra high waisted pair goes up to size 30!

And with an on-trend ankle crop, all eyes will be on the chunky black boots that add some youthfulness to the ensemble. This $40 pair from Amazon are ideal for this look!

Keeping accessories clean and intentional are essential to capturing the cool girl style she has created here—grab this black purse with a gold chain to complete the look.

I love that a lot of these elements are transitional, especially as I am dreaming of all the fall outfits I can put together with items just like this.
