Another day, another laid-back-yet-aspirational street style look from Gigi Hadid. The 24-year-old supermodel was out and about in gloomy New York City on Tues., and she managed to make sweatpants look polished with the help of one key item the fashion set can't get enough of. Gigi Hadid's white button-down was the latest blueprint on the easiest way to elevate your athleisure: Add a blouse. Whether you channel dad-style with an oversized printed version à la Zoe Kravitz, or keep it classic with a feminine style such as Hadid's, a boxy button-down will put a refined spin on your go-to bike shorts or sweats.

As headlines swirl around the California native's alleged Brooklyn date with The Bachelorette's Tyler Cameron, Hadid is obviously remaining unbothered, as proven by her chilled-out stroll through Manhattan. Minding her business in Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy-esque rectangular sunglasses, Hadid pulled her hair into a messy bun, revealing AirPods and a single hoop-and-pearl earring. The model's summer style would be incomplete without her signature stacked necklaces, namely her go-to gold chain from Missoma. Topped off with a Prada comic book-print shoulder bag and Reebok zip-up sneakers, the daytime look possessed all of the workings of a try-less model-approved look.

While it's time to face the sad reality that summer is coming to a close, the final stretch of the season all but promises at least a few more scorching days ahead. Rejoice in the fact that you can still get away with wearing bike shorts and sports bras out on the sidewalk, then offset your gym-ready staples with breezy pieces that indicate you've got more than hot yoga on the agenda. For all you indecisive souls out there, the model's carefully balanced look is here to capture your complexity in all its splendor.
