I was looking through a round up of iconic denim looks on Style.com and spotted this picture of Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy circa 1996. Nearly twenty years later, the whole look is as chic today as it was then. Besette had a way of putting together the simplest items in a stylish, nonchalant way. I love the no-fuss style of her beltless, high-waisted cropped jeans worn with a timeless block-heel sandal that I would buy today. No big labels, no look-at-me styles…her style is simply chic and timeless.

1996? Amazing! She really was one of the original effortlessly stylish women … and tragic, I always feel an incredible sadness when I read about her and John John.

Me too. She had such an allure about her. She’s a classic.
