Reese Witherspoon never fails to charm us with her Southern style—and InStyle's December cover shoot was no exception. She arrived at our Malibu garden set on a warm September day looking casual-cool in a denim button-up shirt paired with her favorite Mother skinny jeans and a “really old” pair of tan suede ankle boots. Between posing in pieces from Armani Prive, Atelier Versace, and her own Draper James line—not to mention, bonding with two speckled rescue pups on hand for the shoot, as well as spending time with her 4-year-old son Tennessee, who visited the set later in the afternoon—Witherspoon admired an assortment of Chanel diamond rings, as well as handbags from Altuzarra, Gabriela Hearst, and Mark Cross.
When it came to the rest of her accessories, Witherspoon mostly opted for heels instead of flats—which comes as no surprise, since the star usually sports an elevated platform even when she’s just running errands. When we caught up with her after the shoot, Witherspoon revealed that her go-to shoe designer at the moment is Gianvito Rossi, whose styles she frequently steps out wearing whether she's hitting the street or the red carpet.
