Any thrifty fashion girl knows shopping secondhand requires a very specific outfit formula. Start with supportive shoes and stackable layers, because true thrifters don’t need fitting rooms. For Jennifer Lopez, however, vintage shopping attire looks quite different. On January 22, she strolled into What Goes Around Comes Around in L.A., wearing a floor-length leather dress and one of her many rare Birkin bags on her arm.
Celebrity clientele like Kendall Jenner, Hailey Bieber, Bella Hadid, and Dua Lipa are all regulars at Lopez’s latest shopping destination. When she stopped by yesterday, her entrance was anything but subtle. She turned heads in a plunging black dress; its spaghetti-strap, V-shaped neck grazed her navel. Photos inside the shop revealed the maxi’s equally-risqué open back. If she wasn’t J.Lo, it’d be considered “bold,” but she adores showing off her shoulder blades. (See her backless LaPointe gown at last year’s Pre-Grammy Gala for proof.)
To adjust the floor-length number for daytime, Lopez layered the fitted leather blazer trend on top. Most of her off-duty blazers are slightly oversize—to make stacking basics beneath it easier—but this skintight, single-breasted style remained buttoned. Plus, its lapel-lined neckline stretched just as deep as her dress.

What Goes Around Comes Around is famous for its extensive collection of Hermès bags. So, it was only right Lopez arrived with a Birkin in tow. A black Hermès Birkin 30 made the cut, featuring a Porosus crocodile-embossed exterior.
The singer began collecting croc Birkins in 2002, but compared to her ivory and Himalayan versions that she carries on repeat. This one has made far fewer street style appearances—perhaps because it sells secondhand for anywhere between $47,500 and $89,500.

Once her shopping wrapped, the leather jacket traded places with her trusty Ralph Lauren Preston II Herringbone Tweed Jacket—the same elbow-patched pick from two recent jeans looks. The on-sale (yet four-figure) style marked quite an academic shift from its leather predecessor. Even so, Lopez’s aviator sunglasses and platform black pumps kept her outfit classically J.Lo.
A few hours later, Lopez returned to her car in a second, more refined blazer.

Being Jennifer Lopez means none of her outings—even vintage shopping—are considered casual. Why would she arrive at What Goes Around Comes Around in baggy sweats and sneakers? It’s just not the fashion muse’s M.O.
On the off chance Lopez did go the sweatsuit route, she’d accessorize with statement stilettos and a rare Hermès Birkin. So, spruce up your day-to-day selects The J.Lo Way via the curated collection below.
