Jennifer Lawrence is seemingly determined to channel her inner elderly lady lately. Recently, she was spotted in Paris donning a Jil Sander beige wool jacket and a Dior satin scarf wrapped around her head in a Babushka style. Her outfit could easily have been plucked from my grandmother's closet (if only my nana could afford Dior). This marks the second time this week that she has sported the Babushka look. Before this, she sported a black Dior scarf with a brown Toteme coat. Although not as egregious, it still left something to be desired. Jennifer Lawrence is not the first to tap into the "Babushka trend," which had a brief moment a few years back. A$AP Rocky and Kendall Jenner also experimented with it, adding their own fashion flair. Jennifer Lawrence, however, appears to be staying true to a very straightforward interpretation. Along with the Babushka-style headscarves, Jennifer wore an extremely matronly ensemble to an LVMH party in Paris recently. The Dior look comprised a sheer grey top, an ill-fitting grey maxi skirt, and a slim croc-embossed grey belt. Needless to say, it was so dreadful that not even my nana would consider wearing it. Unfortunately, Jennifer Lawrence's style has been on a downturn long before Paris Fashion Week. In January, she was spotted in a Proenza Schouler gold velvet maxi dress paired with a vintage Bill Blass gold fur-trim animal print velvet maxi coat. Neither garment should have ever seen the light of day. Her street style doesn't fare much better. Also in January, Jennifer wore what could only be described as the most atrocious shoes ever thrust upon us. The beige mesh flats, dubbed by Vogue as "the best and worst thing to happen to fashion," are by The Row and predominantly made of nylon. Yet, they come with an eye-watering price tag of nearly $700. Jennifer Lawrence's appalling fashion choices serve as a stark reminder that even with all the money in the world, access to luxury brands and celebrity stylists, one can still look utterly dreadful. To echo the sentiments of Countess Luann de Lesseps, money cannot buy you class.
