During a December 2021 holiday outing in Los Angeles, Jennifer Lopez demonstrated how to master the art of monochromatic winter dressing.

While Ben Affleck and the couple’s extended family browsed nearby boutiques, Lopez was spotted on Rodeo Drive visiting Saks Fifth Avenue and Tiffany & Co. in a look that remains a blueprint for elevated street style.

The pair, who have been famously inseparable since reuniting, often blend their high-fashion sensibilities with the practical needs of a busy family life. On this brisk California afternoon, the multihyphenate star leaned into a ‘90s-inspired silhouette that balanced luxury tailoring with edgy, functional footwear.

Embracing the season’s monochromatic trend, the iconic artist wore an all-black look that included a ‘90s-style winter coat ($6,990) from Italian fashion brand Max Mara.

The “Kriss” outerwear is made in Italy from soft cashmere and features peak lapels, buttoned cuffs, side slit pockets, and a detachable waist-tie closure.

Underneath her cozy coat, the Maid in Manhattan star showed a glimpse of her toned abs in a black crop top paired with Brunello Cucinelli’s wide-leg, tailored flared trousers.

Keeping the look sleek and chic, J.Lo pulled her caramel tresses into a casual high bun and wore Isabel Marant sunglasses.

A yellow Henry face mask gave her monochromatic black ensemble a pop of color, while a Foundrae Sister Hook gold heavy belcher chain necklace and a $4,400 Foundrae Love golden key pendant added bling to her look.

These now-sold-out combat boots are made of faux leather and feature a full-length lacing down to the toes. They also have a wrapped moto strap, an interior zipper, 1-inch platforms with lug soles, and about 5-inch block heels.

Meanwhile, Ben opted for his usual casual look: a checkered flannel shirt, jeans, and sneakers.

He spent the day with his mom, his kids with Jennifer Garner, Violet and Seraphina, and J.Lo’s twins with Marc Anthony, Max and Emme.
