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.
One of the best parts of spring? Blossoming flowers. Reese Witherspoon stopped to — you guessed it — smell the flowers (literally) in an Instagram Story earlier this year, and wore an outfit I can’t wait to copy.
In the post, The Morning Show actress opted for a breezy midi skirt with a polished-looking layer: a tan blazer. She styled the look with a crossbody bag and heeled boots. She may have worn the outfit months ago, but we’re inspired to recreate her full-brown look for early fall.
A blazer like Witherspoon’s instantly dresses up an outfit while still being easy to layer over lightweight tops in case you get too hot, and an oversized crossbody bag is a stylish choice to bring to the office.
Channel Witherspoon with styles inspired by her look at Amazon, Nordstrom, and Quince below — starting at $24.

Prettygarden Midi Skirt
Amazon
Witherspoon’s skirt is a classic style every closet should have, and this $24 Amazon option reminds us of her pick. Not only do I adore the brown hue, but I also love how it has tiers and a high-low hem, which adds another dash of elegance. In addition to brown, it’s available in 16 other colors and a range of floral prints.
Cicy Bell Open Front Blazer
Amazon
Sure, I have a denim jacket, but it’s not always my go-to when I’m attending a nicer event or a dinner. That’s where a blazer comes in. This one from Amazon has an open-front design that makes tossing it on and heading out the door even easier. One five-star reviewer called it “classy and so flattering.”
Realer Store Crossbody Bag
Amazon
Like Witherspoon, Jennifer Garner is another celeb fan of crossbody bags. The star’s oversized version is super practical, and this $25 style looks just as spacious. I like how you have two options to carry it, thanks to the top handles and the removable strap. Besides the external zippered pocket, it also has more compartments inside, with plenty of room to fit a laptop as well.
Reese Witherspoon never fails to inspire my wardrobe, and her fall-worthy outfit is no different. Keep scrolling to shop more picks below.
