Heidi Klum knows a thing or two about fashion \u2014 and when it comes to dressing in costume, well, she\u2019s a professional. Last night, she channeled her Halloween queen energy for the 2026 Met Gala, going all out in a statue-like fit<\/a>. But when she\u2019s not on a red carpet or dressed up to host the latest season of Hulu\u2019s Project Runway, she dresses down in the ultimate cool-girl outfit combo<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Klum was recently spotted in New York City at her restaurant, Crazy Pizza, wearing straight-leg jeans, a black crewneck sweater, metallic Balenciaga sneakers<\/a> and an oversized green Alpha Industries bomber jacket<\/a>. She accessorized the look with a black baseball cap, aviator sunglasses and a white Louis Vuitton tote bag. The result was casual without trying too hard \u2014 perfect for city life.<\/p>\n

Consider us inspired! We\u2019d wear this outfit to lunch, to run errands or perhaps to that weekend mahjong game. Below, we’re breaking down the star\u2019s outfit piece by piece so you can get the look, even if you don’t have a top model budget.<\/p>\n

1. Slim-straight jeans<\/p>\n

Klum\u2019s denim appears to be a slim-straight design \u2014 not quite skinny, but not totally straight. \u201cSometimes called a \u2018cigarette jean,\u2019 this sleek style is a great alternative to the mom jeans we\u2019ve been seeing over the past few years. Their slim taper allows them to be styled much more easily,\u201d Andie Sobrato<\/a>, owner and lead stylist of Andie Sobrato LLC, told Yahoo Shopping<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Originally designed for pilots, these undeniably cool coats hit at the waist and create a boxy, slouchy look that oozes it-girl vibes. Bomber jackets can add a little edge to jeans, skirts, dresses, you name it. Depending on the fabric, you could wear one with leggings to the gym, with trousers to the office or with jeans out to dinner with the fam. Most are on the thicker side, so they\u2019re great for early spring days and chilly mornings. Go for an oversized fit like Klum\u2019s if you want a truly modern look.<\/p>\n

Klum\u2019s Balenciaga sneakers take after \u201890s mesh running shoes, with fun metallic accents sprinkled into the mix. They cost a pretty penny (over $1,000!), so thankfully, more mainstream brands like Nike and Asics have similar options. Dotted with silver and gold accents, these bold sneakers will give a sporty outfit a little more style.<\/p>\n

The more staples in your closet, the better. And a black crewneck is just that \u2014 a wardrobe workhorse that you can lean on to wear with almost anything, in any setting. Style with jeans and sneaks during the day \u00e0 la Klum or heels and a killer jacket at night. For a cozy at-home loungewear look, layer one over your fave leggings.<\/p>\n

Oversized shades are back in style! Klum wore a pair of classic black aviators with her ensemble, for that just-right finishing touch. Choose from metal or plastic frames \u2014 either way, don\u2019t be afraid to go big.<\/p>\n
