Jennifer Lopez Just Wore the Year's Cheapest It Item

When we look back at the most popular fashion items of 2020, one certainly sticks out for so many reasons, two of those reasons being affordability and comfort. The fashion item in question wasn't new, per se, but days upon days spent at home in sweatpants quickly revived it. If your guess is Nike logo socks, ding ding ding!, you are correct. And Jennifer Lopez is the latest (very famous) person to remind us that the year's cheapest It items lives on.

While in NYC today preparing for her highly anticipated performance on Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve with Ryan Seacrest, J.Lo arrived for rehearsals in a monochromatic cream puffer and sweatpants look, which she paired with the aforementioned Nike logo socks and her favorite Alexander McQueen sneakers. The classic socks are still kind of hard to find, but I scoured the internet for a few standout pairs so you don't have to. Scroll to see how Lopez styled the It item while out and about and shop the coolest ones for your own sweatpants outfits.
