Reese Witherspoon seems like that friend you can always count on. She probably hosts the best brunches, and she definitely hosts the best book club meetings. Generally, nothing about her is controversial, but she just threw a curveball our way by wearing an outfit that's actually a little bit baffling. We know, we can't believe it either!

Witherspoon was photographed in Los Angeles wearing a seemingly simple outfit: a relaxed-fitting white tee, blue pants, and sneakers. But upon further inspection, we discovered some #OOTD facets that take it from simple to shocking, like the fact that her blue bottoms hearken back to the polarizing cargo pants trend that was big in the '90s. And her white sneakers aren't regular ol' white sneakers: They're Hollywood's most confusing $500 kicks, which Megan Fox wears on repeat.

Golden Goose sneakers have been making a splash on the celeb style scene for years (and the #BamaRushTok scene for weeks) — and while some don't get why pre-tarnished sneakers are so popular, we do. The Italian shoes are made from soft, supple leather and look inherently cool. Plus, you don't have to worry about getting them dirty because, well, they already look like they are.

Cargo pants are also coming back in a big way, and whether it's the pockets or the slouch, biggest is definitely better. Witherspoon's blue pair leans more fitted, but celebs like Bella and Gigi Hadid have taken their cargos to entirely new lows (and that's a good thing).
