When it comes to fashion, Jennifer Lopez doesn’t play by the rules.

The “Love Don’t Cost a Thing” singer embraced high-low style on a recent outing in New York City, where she paired some of her favorite (yet slightly contradictory) wardrobe staples together.

It isn’t a J.Lo street-style moment unless she’s armed with one of her trusty Hermès Birkin bags, and she delivered on that via a large black purse with gold hardware—a coveted style that some e-commerce sites sell for as much as $40,000.

The superstar counterbalanced the luxurious price tag of her purse with the rest of her outfit, which consisted of casual pieces like a speckled beige sweater, featuring outer stitch details and ribbing along the edges, and a pair of ultra-baggy, dirt-smudged jeans. But it wasn’t just any old pair of distressed jeans: Lopez’s bottoms hailed from Acne Studios and currently retail online for $750.

To complete the ensemble, Lopez added platform suede combat boots from R13, oversize shield sunglasses with a blue-to-orange gradient tint, and a set of shiny gold hoop earrings.

Lopez seems to have an affinity for this particular outfit combo, having ventured out on a number of recent occasions in a similar silhouette.

For instance, she stepped out last week wearing massively oversize denim jeans from Gucci, which she styled with a plain cream turtleneck and white sneakers. Prior to that, she re-wore the same Gucci jeans with two different ribbed turtlenecks, first appearing in a cropped green sweater before swapping out the top for a bodycon Intimissimi piece. As for her shoes, she once again flaunted her love of towering footwear via platform Uggs.
