Welcome to The Blueprint, where we take apart the celebrity looks we want to wear right now and recreate them, piece by piece.
If there’s one thing celebrities have been sipping as much as they’ve been wearing this winter, it’s espresso. In fact, Oprah Winfrey just wore the trendy shade in a cool way that I will be adding to my wardrobe.
In an Instagram post promoting a recent podcast episode with Eckhart Tolle, the media mogul wore leather espresso pants — a stylish alternative to jeans. She styled the look with a striped brown and white blouse and elegant boots in, you guessed it, espresso.
Oprah isn’t the only star to wear espresso—Martha Stewart, Sofia Vergara, and Reese Witherspoon have all taken advantage of the trend recently. The warm shade is a fun substitute for timeless black, as the earth tone is easy to match with other items in your wardrobe. Espresso is also a smart way to winter with stripes, which are usually a summer staple.
If you already own a pair of black leather pants or boots, consider adding these brown pairs to your seasonal wardrobe to change things up. Shop leather pants, boots and striped shirts in Hollywood’s winter “it” colors from just $22 below.

For those looking for a comfortable, easy way to look stylish, try these faux leather pants that remind me of the ones Oprah wore on Instagram. They have a wide design that is popular with celebrities like Heidi Klum and Anne Hathaway. The faux leather exterior is stylish and practical for this time of year, while the inside has a thin fleece lining to keep you warm. Over 50 Amazon customers have added them to their closets in the past month, and they’re only $44.

Who says you can’t wear stripes in winter? I’m going to try Oprah’s look with this similar striped shirt that’s on sale for just $22 on Amazon thanks to a coupon. The long-sleeve design protects you from the elements, and you can layer this blouse under a jumper or sweater to make it more comfortable for winter. I would wear this in brown for obvious reasons, but if you want to try other shades, the top also comes in black, blue and 13 other colors. The chest pocket is such a cute bonus.

Raise your hand if you’d rather wear a pair of boots than heels. These pointy toe shoes are actually little heels and boots all in one thanks to the short, thin heel and boxy pointy toes. The durable outsole has traction that helps stabilize your feet in the weather. One five-star reviewer even called them “extremely comfortable.”
I think it’s about time I added more espresso to my closet, which is currently full of black. If you want it too, keep scrolling for more espresso leather pants, striped shirts and boots inspired by Oprah Winfrey’s latest look.
