Can we talk about how genius Jessica Alba's outfit is? Her pants are ridiculously comfy and yet she looks completely polished. I hope I can pull off some pants like that someday; in the meantime I'm copying her gray/beige color palette with things already in my closet. At first I wasn't sure if I liked this outfit, but anytime "ordinary" (mostly plan gray) pieces come together to create something not-so-ordinary (I've never worn it before), I'm a happy camper. Now I just need to find some pants like that... see options below. Would you wear Jessica's pants?

Trench: Banana Republic c/o, old (similar)
Sweater: Express, $15 (similar, similar)
Jeans: Gap, $30 (similar)
Shoes: Banana Republic, $75 (similar, cheaper)
Purse: Calvin Klein/Saks Off Fifth, $130 (similar, similar)

Sweater is 7 years old, shoes 5 years old, jeans and trench 3 years old, purse is last spring.
