By Julianne Babaran

It would be much easier to be envious of a girl who seemingly has it all but it's no doubt Jennie's way of styling is what attracted big name brands to partner with her in the first place. What she wore before, what she wears now and the way she continues to style herself may seem unfamiliar. You might even think you could never dress that way just because of costs, but nothing can be further from the truth. Styling is free, the clothes are not. Just the same, it's not as impossible as it may seem. 

As a normal person outside of the biggest band in the world, Jennie just like anyone else and likes to be casual. There are certain styles she like to repeat, like high crop tops and low waist pants, top and cardigan paired with mini skirts. It's easy to spot her very girly and carefree style as she tries to look good even in casual wear. These little elements can help you navigate and emulate her style in a way that complements you. 

In this article we'll breakdown the most common elements she wears in the different article of clothing she wears. 

Tops : Crop Tops 

Crop Button Up 

Unlike other BLACKPINK members, Jennie in particular likes to show a lot of skin. When styling super high crop tops such as these, she likes to balance it by either having sleeves or pairing it with pants. 

Ribbed Black Crop Top 

The kind of crop top she wears varies a lot in style, but the elements of having balance remains. Here she wore a black long sleeve crop top with cut out in the back but she paired it with pants, showing just enough and not too much. 

You can get one in this style here, what we love about it is the cut out design at the back. If you don't want it seen, you can easily cover it with a jacket or cardigan.  

Crop tops & Matching Cardigan

Another example is pairing tops with cardigans. It would obviously depend on the weather but the power pair seems to be a staple for Jennie. You can find she wears it for big events or even in casual wear just like this. 

Green Crop Top 

Instead of styling crop tops alone, they can be playful way to add shape by matching it with jackets and cardigans. Here she styles it with a cardigan to create a unique look. Get this cardigan here, if you'd like to style in mind similar to this one. 

Beige Checkered Top Set 

We love a good warm fabric style top but is also very cropped, the mixed signals look is what we're after. She wore this argyle style top on the airport and matched it high waisted jeans for a perfect casual look. 

It's still timeless and there's always time to catch up to her style as she always 10 steps ahead. This set is one of those that are so easy to style with plain tops and solid colored bottoms.

Oversized Jeans with Graphic Detail 

Performance outfits can be a whole other avenue Jennie can show off her style, it would highly depend on the theme of the song and the overall mood. Styling pop bordering girl crush is a lot easier. She styled with a sassy yet cute persona that balances both extremes. 

This baggy silhouette pants for example looks more cute than gangster, with a crop top you can really elevate this look. Get these pair here to style it in your own way. We think tighter fitted tops and cropped long sleeves are a great way to go. 

Tie Up Black Pants 

Jennie also doesn't limit herself to one style of pants, she wore these tie up style black pants when she hung out with Dua Lipa. The stylish pair is comfortable to wear but stylish enough to not be too casual. 

Speaking of low waist, if you're not the type to rock them luckily it's okay because with fashion techniques you can get the same kind of effect using string illusion.

Not limited to A-line or midi or even pleated for casual outfits. Again following the balanced look.                                                 

Black Pleated Skirt 

One particular example of a famous skirt and silhouette style in K-pop is the pleated mini skirt, these can be found in a lot of outfits varying in whether its for high end events of just casual wear.

Blue Midi Skirt 

Although photos of her in mini skirts are very popular, Jennie loves midi skirts just as much. In casual style, she wears it very casually, usually layering it with something. Midi skirts are very refreshing and will help stand out as opposed to mini ones which may be uncomfortable at times.

White Ruffled Layered Skirt 

We think that Jennie in midi skirts are the epitome of the "that girl" aesthetic for K-pop idols. She rocks the flowy bottoms when strolling around or when she's just on her days off. We love to see the skirt give comfort and character. The skirt makes the outfit seem more high fashion and though out than reality.

Dresses : Full Length or Mini 

Sage Midi Dress 

Dresses are gonna be quite hard to narrow down as she wears many different kinds. But the ones she wears casually and probably ones we can afford (let's be real) include those in midi or full body length. 

We think this mint colored one can be fitting for anyone. It looks especially beautiful against an outdoor backdrop. The color green is natural to the eye and is therefore more comfortable, it can match any purse without much fear of clashing colors. Flip the switch on mini dresses and rock this style. Get it here

Black Body Con Midi Dress

Not considering stage outfits and other high profile events, Jennie actually styles dresses pretty casually. Conservative when she has to be just like in the photo, she uses the dress as a canvas for other accessories such as those for layering. 

Mini dresses 

Floral Bustier Dress

Like we said, dresses are hard to pin down but one commonality is the clean cut shape and short length. Nothing too crazy in style, no deep necklines or anything of that sort. Think PG but still playful and flirty. Find a similar type of dress here

It's important to follow details that go along with your dress. If the style is formal, that's your sign to dress up you hair and makeup as well. Jennie's style always seems put together this way. You can find a dress that gives the similar theme here

Jackets : Bold Blazers 

Black and White Gingham Blazer 

Jackets or coats are staple if you travel as much as Jennie. A bold patterned one is crucial for that high end look as it shows you find importance in looks over practicality, of course we'd leave that in between up to you. 

Green Velvet Jacket 

Did we say bold? We also meant to include playful. Y2k or simply bright colors are making a comeback, you don't need to go full on. Having bright pieces like a lounge jacket helps you stand out from all grays and blacks out there.

Hats : Bucket Hats 

Basic Black Bucket Hat 

If you're a bit shy to explore the world of hats, Jennie loves black bucket hats. It's a great place to start as it matches anything, it's a great sneaky way to be more private or to just simply hide your face if you're in not the mood. 

If you ever wanted to feel like a low-key celeb, cop one for yourself here. Although bucket hats are everywhere, we know its there for good reason. This tasseled style is one she wore in the airport and we feel you could rock this look as well!

There's even floppy ones with fur lining for warmth. It's the perfect accessory for a celeb or just about anyone. They're ubiquitous to any occasion and weather it's just simply hard to go wrong. 

Beanies

Pastel Patterned Beanie

 A patterned one makes a look more adorable and you, approachable. Styling multi colored neutral ones like these won't ruin your outfit at all.  

Shoes : Sneakers

White Sneakers 

We wonder when white sneakers will ever be out of style, but apparently Jennie wants them to stay. One way to elevate the boring pair though is to get ones with a slight color detail to compliment the colors in your outfit. It's thought out but not overkill. 

Platform Sneakers 

Getting plain ones with a bit more platform style such as these are great too. It's more trendy and can elevate not only your height but your outfit as well. She styles it here with baggy pants again very y2k but subtle. 

Leather Loafers 

Loafers can be a hit or miss, but they aren't worn by everyone and that is the point. In high fashion, some things are alien to everyday people. But loafers can be for everyone as it gives a high fashion feel as not everyone styles and wears them the same way. 

 

Sunglasses : Black Tinted Staples

Basic Black Sunnies 

If you think you need sunnies with the Gentle Monster price tag, you're wrong. Small frame black ones like these are super duper versatile, as demonstrated, you can just use them as a head accessory if wearing them properly is too flashy.

Metal Framed Sun Glasses

Straying away from the masses, lightly tinted ones with metal frames are more unique and classy. They can be edgy and elegant as the thin frame doesn't disrupt the look.
