In April 2021, Jessica Alba stepped out in Los Angeles while preparing for The Honest Company’s Nasdaq debut, pairing soft spring tailoring with practical footwear from Dear Frances.
Instead of leaning into sharp corporate dressing, Alba kept the look relaxed and wearable in a peach double-breasted blazer, olive cargo pants, and tan lace-up “Park” boots that grounded the outfit with a sturdier, utilitarian finish.
The balance between polished separates and functional shoes made the look feel more personal than boardroom-styled.

She was photographed arriving at The Honest Company headquarters ahead of the company’s public listing, carrying a large Roger Vivier tote that reinforced the outfit’s business-meets-off-duty tone.
Showcasing a perfect spring look, Jessica Alba wore a double-breasted peach blazer over a sage green tee. The Dark Angel actress tucked her plain top into a pair of olive-green cuffed cargo pants, styled with a silver-buckled brown belt.

The mom-of-three elevated her business casual attire with layered gold necklaces, including a Jennifer Meyer personalized nameplate necklace. She also accessorized her professional look with a gold watch and a stack of bracelets.
Wearing her tresses down with a side parting, Jessica further styled her look with gold-framed aviators and a matching green mask.

Jessica carried her essentials in a Roger Vivier “Call Me Viv” beige canvas tote, which retailed for $1,995 at Mytheresa.
A luxurious take on the classic canvas carry-all, this large tote features leather and grosgrain trims, an embossed logo monogram, and the label’s headquarters on the side. Inside, you’ll find a postcard print on the zipped wall pocket, leather lining, and an internal slot pocket.
