It’s a match made in heaven.

Zoe Saldaña takes fashion risks; just look at her sheer checkered dress or crop top accentuated with micro daggers. That said, her bold style extends beyond red carpet moments and goes into everyday life, such as her recent New York City look.

Yesterday, Saldaña was spotted out in the Big Apple wearing a camel-colored bomber jacket, black V-neck top, retro glasses, and oversized jeans. You might write off her denim, thinking they fall in line with the big pants trend; however; a closer look reveals a controversial take on the baggy bottoms.

Saldaña’s bottoms are fitted throughout the hips, balloon at the knees, and curve at the hemline boasting a — drumroll please — barrel-leg style. This look has been secretly (yet quickly) entering the fashion chat, showing up on celebrities like Julianne Moore and Katie Holmes. While some may have mixed feelings about the balloon-like pants, they’re going to be huge for 2024, especially when you can choose between cropped, loose, cargo, and high-waist options. TL;DR? They’re essentially the opposite of skinny jeans.

Make sure to have a stylish shoe to go along with your trendy pants, like Saldaña’s white sneakers. While white kicks aren’t groundbreaking, they’re spring’s most popular footwear choice for a reason: They pair with nearly everything and take the guesswork out of getting ready. Plus, options like these on-sale $39 Reebok tennis shoes offer a comfortable solution to all of your seasonal activities, such as bike riding, attending picnics, and shopping at your local farmers market.

Together, balloon denim and crisp white sneakers make for an easy ensemble that’s effortlessly cool. Finish off your look with a baby tee, slim, long-sleeve shirt, or bodysuit. The key is to choose a top that’s fitted in order to balance out the proportions. Throw on a baseball cap, some hoop earrings, and you’re ready for the day.
