For some people, great style goes beyond good taste; it's in their genes. This innate savviness was on full display when international human rights lawyer Amal Clooney stepped out in Athens, Greece, with her mother, journalist Baria Alamuddin, for a conference.
While the women don't share identical style sensibilities, it was evident they agree on one of fall's most elegant pant trends : wide-leg trousers. Clooney turned heads in an all-white three-piece suit with a cream Jacquemus bag and oversize sunglasses. Meanwhile, Alamuddin opted for a more whimsical ensemble featuring head-to-toe polka dots , a playful coral necklace, and Chanel accessories.
