Dakota Johnson Just Wore the Low-Key Winter Outfit I Want to Copy

Even though I’m a fashion editor, I have to admit I’m a bit of a lazy dresser. While there’s certainly a time and a place to get dressed up and push your sartorial boundaries, most of the time, I rely on easy-to-throw-on looks that require little effort on my part to style. This is why I love seeing celebrities doing the same thing—wearing a chill, minimal-effort outfit that 1) makes me feel better about my own choices and 2) might inspire my next low-key look. Enter Dakota Johnson’s latest outfit, which strikes the perfect balance of stylish but reassuringly casual.

On a chilly day in NYC, Johnson wore a brightly coloured beanie hat, the sort of which you can pick up just about anywhere right now, be it Ganni or Gap. Her stylish coat and bag? They’re none other than The Row—because, let’s face it, if you could wear The Row every day, you absolutely would. As for her shoes? I’d recognise those Gucci stripes anywhere. (It’s also worth noting that another one of my casual-outfit muses, Sienna Miller, wore a pair of Gucci kicks lately, too. Coincidence? I think not.) Throw in some chic tailored trousers, and what do you get? My next lazy outfit, that’s what. Scroll down to see the pieces you need to re-create her perfect off-duty winter look, which I’ve handily assembled for you. You’re welcome!
