Martha Stewart’s Breezy Button-Down and Straight-Leg Jeans Are No-Brainers for Summer — Copy Her Look from $22

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

Did I just turn 25 last week? That. And do I consider Martha Stewart the ultimate style blueprint? Also yes.

The lifestyle guru may be best known for her work in the kitchen, garden and home, but she also has a knack for creating stellar summer-ready looks — and I’m taking note of every last one. Case in point? Just days after walking the red carpet in a formal dress fit for warm-weather weddings, she debuted another replica (albeit much more casual) outfit on Instagram.

In the snap, the 82-year-old styled three celebrity style staples, a black button-down shirt, straight-leg jeans and brown sneakers, to create a simple outfit that was as cute as it was comfortable. The best part? Each piece is incredibly versatile, so you can mix and match with other pieces in your wardrobe to create more Stewart-inspired looks for seasons to come.

Below, I’ve rounded up styles inspired by Stewart’s take on Gap, Amazon, J.Crew and more, with prices starting at just $22.

Stewart isn’t the only fan of button-down shirts: Everyone from Meghan Markle to Reese Witherspoon has been rocking breezy button-down shirts ahead of summer. Right now you can buy one that looks so similar to the lifestyle guru’s black top for 50 percent off. Hundreds of customers gave it a five-star rating for its “soft yet fresh” feel and “lovely fit,” and one reviewer even liked it so much that he already bought another color.

My straight-leg jeans are in desperate need of a refresh, so I’m copying Stewart’s style and buying this pair from Amazon with over 19,000 perfect ratings. Available in sizes 2 to 28, as well as short, regular, and tall lengths, many reviewers say these bottoms “fit like crazy” and are “the best pair of jeans” they’ve ever owned. Grab them in one (or more) of four washes, including a classic blue shade that looks just like Stewart’s.

While it’s hard to go wrong with a comfortable pair of sneakers, this brown option from Amazon offers a twist on the classic silhouette. Customers note that they are “cute and comfortable” and great for long days of walking. Channel Stewart’s spring style by teaming them with jeans and a blouse or wearing them with a flowy dress for a more formal occasion.

I’m already looking forward to replicating Martha Stewart’s casual summer style. Keep scrolling to shop more button-ups, jeans and sneakers inspired by the 82-year-old fashion icon today.
