Welcome to The Blueprint, where we break down the celebrity looks we want to wear right now and build them back up, piece by piece.
Move over, white sneakers: Sandra Bullock just backed the comfy shoes I rely on to dress up casual outfits — including jeans.
I’ve worn Chelsea boots for nearly a decade, reaching for them ahead of date nights and errand runs alike. Not only are they incredibly comfortable, but they can make sundresses appear formal and lounge pants more put-together. Bullock utilized her Chelsea boots similarly, styling them with a turtleneck sweater, wide-leg jeans, and an oversized tote bag while out in Los Angeles last week.
It’s not hard to recreate the look — especially with these standout picks. Below, check out pieces inspired by Bullock’s outfit starting at $25.

Nordstrom Darian Chelsea Boots
Nordstrom
While sneakers offer comfort and style, they often make outfits appear casual and require bending to lace them up. These Chelsea boots are a more modern option that easily slip on (ideal for days you’re in a rush). Bonus: They also double as rain boots thanks to their waterproof leather material, so your feet will look stylish and stay dry.
Lillusory Oversized Turtleneck Sweater
Amazon
An oversized turtleneck sweater offers the comfort of a sweatshirt while looking elegant enough for the office. This option has a split hem for breathability, so you can stay cozy without overheating. The best part? Its longer length is easy to style with leggings, slacks, or a skirt, allowing you to go straight from the office to a nice dinner.
Levi’s 318 Shaping Wide-Leg Jeans
Amazon
These wide-leg jeans by Levi’s are similar to the pair that Bullock wore, thanks to their loose fit and light blue color. The material is form-fitting and feels “compressed but not tight,” according to one shopper. They don’t arrive cuffed, but you can easily roll the jeans up to mimic the celeb’s outfit.
BCBG Drawstring Tulip Tote Bag
Nordstrom Rack
If there’s one accessory that will never go out of style, it’s a tote bag. This option, in particular, has a unique drawstring closure that allows you to choose how tight the opening sits. There’s also a magnetic closure to keep your belongings extra secure.
