On December 14, 2013, Disney’s pop princess Bella Thorne hit DigiFest LA at the Hollywood Palladium with friends including Noah Cyrus (younger sister of pop icon Miley Cyrus) and Rebecca Black, who was then promoting her follow-up single “Saturday.”
Signaling an early step beyond her Disney image, Bella’s laid-back mix of downtown-cool separates and chunky lug-sole boots reads strikingly modern today.

For the event, Bella put together yet another ensemble that didn’t quite fit her Disney persona—a chic outfit that was a bit too mature for her sweet half-ponytail, loose waves, and youthful makeup.

Bella Thorne dressed herself in a top-and-loose-trousers combination by Rebecca Minkoff, the American fashion designer celebrated for her accessible luxury handbags, accessories, and apparel.
Co-founding her eponymous brand in 2005 with her brother Uri Minkoff, she first rose to fame with the “Morning After Bag” (MAB).

The then-16-year-old opted for risky drop-crotch pants with contrasting waistband panels and a drawstring waist, which she paired with a crochet top in an almost metallic dull gray shade.

While the oversized proportions slightly overwhelmed Bella’s fresh-faced charm, the look had undeniable appeal. The metallic crochet top brought a touch of polish, balancing the relaxed slouch of the drawstring trousers in a way that felt effortlessly cool despite the contrasting tones.
Anchored with lug-sole boots that gave off serious Alexa Chung vibes, the ensemble struck that elusive balance between downtown edge and laid-back chic. This combination still feels fashion-forward today.
