The Kaia Gerber street style formula strikes the balance between casual and perfectly polished. The supermodel’s effortless and pared-down approach to dressing is one where solid wardrobe essentials shine—think tailored trousers and worn-in T-shirts to stylish sneakers and boxy blazers. Just within the past month, Gerber has stepped out in two easy-to-replicate outfits that both feature oversized button-up shirts. As a fall styling hack, she layers the piece over a ribbed white tank and adds in a sleek black dress pant to further elevate the look. The finishing touch? Her favorite Adidas Samba sneakers to achieve that model-off-duty look she so continuously masters.

While it’s no secret that the model is one of Adidas’s biggest fans, she recently showed off another stylish (and affordable!) sneaker—this time from Onitsuka Tiger. She styled the classic pair of sneakers with a minimal suit jacket and a tailored trouser in chocolate brown. Gerber’s sleek suiting choice comes on the heels of her recent collaboration with Zara, where her signature minimalist wardrobe essentials—including several different styles of suits—were front and center. In addition to sophisticated ready-to-wear, she tends to go for accessories that are similarly classic but with a modern twist, like a trendy moon bag or a chunky lug-sole loafer

Elegant overcoats from Mango and Jonathan Simkhai are also in her fall-fashion rotation, while other honorable mentions include a billowy floral-print blouse from Dôen, luxurious light-wash jeans from Khaite, and a sleek leather blazer from Apparis.

For fall and beyond, look to emulate Kaia Gerber’s street style outfits. It may even be effortless, given that you probably already have all of these wardrobe essentials in your arsenal. Below, nine ways to wear—and shop!—the supermodel’s signature model-off-duty looks.

Lately, the foundation of almost all of Gerber’s minimalist street style looks is an oversized, button-up shirt used as an essential fall layering piece. Start strong with Hommegirls’s light blue striped shirt and layer it over a form-fitting tank top from Re/Done. Tailored black dress pants from Wardrobe.NYC elevate the entire look, while Adidas’s Gazelles keeps it casual.

You can always expect the supermodel to step out in some form of tailoring—this time an oversized blazer from Zara and trousers The Row. Where her ready-to-wear might lack in color, Gerber’s accessories more than make up for it. The star of the outfit are these yellow sneakers from Onitsuka Tiger.

While her roster of minimalist fashion must-haves is clear, Gerber can oftentimes be spotted sporting a bohemian-inspired top or dress. This time, her floral-print blouse from Dôen is on display. She pairs the festive fall find with light-wash jeans from Khaite and toughens up the look with lug-sole boots from Bottega Veneta. A trendy moon bag like this one from Gucci is draped elegantly over her shoulders.

A boxy, oversized blazer like this one from Everlane often serves as the foundation for many of Gerber’s greatest street style hits. From there, she strikes the perfect balance between dressed up and down courtesy of silky cargo pants from Proenza Schouler White Label and Ninety Percent’s cotton T-shirt. Her footwear of choice is, of course, Adidas Samba sneakers.

A leather blazer is a luxurious twist on the classic tailoring essential. Like Gerber’s own, this one from Apparis instantly elevates any outfit, whether casual or dressed up.

An elegant fall overcoat like this one from Mango is magic in your closet—just ask Gerber. Underneath, a navy-and-white striped T-shirt from Rag Bone is a welcome contrast. A lived-in pair of jeans from Made in Tomboy are always welcome, while The Row’s moon bag adds a trendy edge to the timeless look.

To pack a punch of color to her otherwise minimalist look, Gerber relies on a bright green crewneck sweater from Everlane. Draped gracefully over her shoulders, she styles it with a cropped tank top like this one from Wardrobe.NYC. Black suit pants from the Frankie Shop are a no-brainer, while By Far’s beige shoulder bag gives the look some welcome flair.

From Jonathan Simkhai, this Carrie wool fringe coat is statement making regardless of what is paired underneath. Per Gerber’s influence, a basic black turtleneck is always a great choice. Accessorize with Loewe’s It bag and black sunnies from DMY by DMY.
