While Dakota Johnson is known for her impeccably chic red-carpet looks and effortlessly cool street-style outfits, she's certainly not afraid to trade in the glitzy, brand-name pieces for easy — and affordable — basics. Enter, Dakota Johnson's black workout leggings: They're simple yet cool bottoms that are guaranteed to become your new favorites. Best of all? They hit right under the $100 mark.

On Nov. 12, the 29-year-old was spotted out and about in Los Angeles wearing the perfect sporty-casual look. And while the actor is no stranger to the makings of a great athleisure look — she frequents black Lululemon leggings paired with oversized tees and sneakers — the outfit she sported on Mon. was a welcomed change of pace, in large part because it incorporated a few seasonal essentials that instantly upgraded the look.

Her easy, daytime ensemble consisted of just a few basics, including a pair of black, graphic-print leggings from Under Armor. You can snag Johnson's exact leggings from Amazon Prime, deeming them the ultimate travel pants for your upcoming holiday ventures. The actor teamed the eye-catching leggings with a simple white tee, topping off the look with a cold-weather must-have: a 100 percent cashmere, burgundy longline cardigan from Raey.

Johnson grounded her look with a pair of black Adidas sneakers, a classic shoe she wears on repeat. The finishing touches? An oversized, brown-leather hobo bag from Celine and her signature square-framed sunglasses. She kept her hair down, and opted only for a swipe of soft-pink lipstick to complement her red nails.

As Johnson demonstrates perfectly, athleisure doesn't have to be tricky, especially when you base your look around a pair of eye-catching leggings. Don't feel like you need to incorporate workout staples into the full look, either — instead, try mixing and matching styles like Johnson.

Simply start with a pair of leggings, adding in a basic white tee, an oversized leather jacket, studded boots, and hoop earrings for a look that's both comfortable and stylish.
