Jennifer Lopez Just Wore the Bold Coat Style My Mom Has Been Sporting for Years — and Rihanna Likes Leopard, Too

Welcome to The Blueprint, where we take apart the celebrity looks we want to wear right now and recreate them, piece by piece.

Unfortunately, Jennifer Lopez and my mom are not related, but they are cheetah sisters.

The Fraudsters the actress stepped out earlier this week in a vaguely patterned T-shirt that I, for one, could spot from a mile away. She was wearing a black and brown leopard coat that was practically the same one my mom wore every time she left the house in cold weather, and it made me quickly buy one of the potential coats sitting in my virtual shopping cart.

The bold pattern is neutral, according to my mother, who wore her coat until she couldn’t anymore — at least a decade — and was complimented on it most of that time. It’s also having a breakout year with Sandra Bullock, Rihanna and Brittany Mahomes wearing it.

Lopez also sported a black Intimissimi turtleneck — the brand she’s a global ambassador for and has worn before — and a pair of light blue jeans with a criss-cross belt, something Taylor Swift has flashed a few times.

I’ve also been wearing cheetah jeans non-stop, so I’m thinking I might have to get a coat for myself too. This one looks a little less bulky than J.Lo’s, so it would probably be better for west coast weather. This Abercrombie version looks warmer, so it might be more suitable for my mum who is still stuck in cold weather. It’s also more like Rihanna, who showed that a statement coat works wonders even for a tracksuit.

There’s no better time for turtlenecks than fall and winter, and celebrities know that, too. Customers say this version is a great layering piece, describing it as “breathable”, “extra stretchy” and “soft”. It comes in black and beige, two turtleneck colors that Jennifer Lopez wears all the time. (And check out the coat with a similar pattern that she previously styled her black top with!)

Lately I’ve been bored with my denim, but I’ve never tried to change the belt. Crossing at the waist is a pretty smart move since it doesn’t drastically change the classic look of the jeans — it just twists them up a bit. This pair has a few small tears and is slightly faded for a worn effect. In addition, there are belt loops for a tighter fit.
