Naomi Watts has always had the inimitable ability to make anything she wears feel both elegant and accessible at the same time. Whether she’s donning a silk scarf and trench coat to play Jackie Kennedy in Love Story or leopard-print jackets as a high-powered divorce lawyer in All’s Fair, she does so with an effortlessness that makes all her looks feel incredibly replicable.

This extends off the screen, as her latest outing has proven. Whilst out running errands in Los Angeles, the actress stepped out in a timeless formula that’s been well documented to be a favourite of French women across every age.

Indeed, the star stepped out in a Breton stripe top, denim shorts and black Mary Janes, showcasing that the key to looking both elevated and unfussy relies upon a rotation of well-edited wardrobe basics.

What piqued my interest most, however, wasn’t the fact that this silhouette consisted of cardinal pieces owned by any chic Parisian, but rather the way in which Marinière tops have reentered the sartorial landscape.
