I have always viewed cropped jeans as an essential staple for summer. However, after wearing mine repeatedly lately, they've begun to lose some of their initial charm, and I've been yearning for fresh, more intentional ways to style them. Fortunately, my brief style slump aligned with a new photo release from Gwyneth Paltrow.
