Effortless, cool, and quietly put-together, straight-leg denim jeans paired with Birkenstock Boston mules is one of the best styling combinations for laid-back off-duty style – and Demi Moore's recent look would suggest that she agrees too.
While we're used to seeing Moore exclusively on the red carpet – most recently in an avant-garde tie dress by Thom Browne at the Met Gala – this laid-back style has caught us off guard for the right reasons. We all know and love the Boston mule; however, if you haven't quite taken the plunge due to uncertainty on how to style Birkenstocks, this is the look for you.
Moore combines mid-wash straight-leg jeans – the timeless hero of the denim world – and the classic Boston mules in black. To finish, she opts for a lightweight, short-sleeved button-up shirt in a bright white and aviator-style glasses that add the perfect retro finishing touch.
Take a look at our favourite Birkenstock Bostons below. This style is also available at plenty of other retailers, including Net a Porter and Amazon, so take a look here to compare colours, materials, and prices too.

woman&home's Digital Fashion Ecommerce Editor Caroline Parr says: "I bought a pair of Birkenstock Bostons at the end of last summer and so far haven't experimented too much with how to wear them. It turns out Demi Moore's look is all the inspiration I need!"
Later, saying, "The cropped length of the jeans shows off her socks and mules combination perfectly, and it's a reminder these shoes, as divisive as they may be, are perfect for the unpredictable weather we're having."
A standout feature of this mule slip-on style is that it can be worn with pretty much anything. However, if you're new to this style, we would reccomend following a similar outfit formula to Demi's, straight leg jeans with a lightweight shirt, simple and effective.
