I hope everybody has their scissors ready. Jennifer Lopez was just seen in an off-the-shoulder athleisure look, which means cold-shoulder tops are back and it’s time to start cutting the necklines out of our sweatshirts once again.
Paps caught Lopez and her teenage kid Emme Muniz out for a walk in Los Angeles on October 15, dressed in some distinctly early 2010s normcore. Lopez wore a baggy white sweatshirt-style top that was artfully styled so it hangs off of one shoulder, and she completed the Flashdance-esque look with a pair of metallic gray leggings and chunky white dad sneakers. The singer added a gray shoulder bag, windshield sunglasses, and a slicked back ponytail.
Emme’s ’fit, truth be told, was equally 2013-coded. The 15-year-old wore checkered Vans, cargo shorts, and a graphic tee, which they accessorized with a black backwards baseball cap and…do my eyes deceive me ,or are those gauges in their ears?
Early ’00s styles have come back with a vengeance in the past couple of years, so it was only a matter of time before the cold-shoulder tops made their return. Even the most polarizing trends of the decade—ballet flats, giant belts, newsboy caps, low-rise jeans—have come back in style. The good news is that at this rate, we’ll all be back in our elasticated skinny jeans before you know it.
