Whenever Amal Clooney takes to the red carpet, she always steals the show. Billowing designer gown and tumbling brunette locks are a guarantee with George Clooney's wife, but it seems her off-duty look is just as elegant. On Sunday, the owner of Les Merveilles de Babellou, a vintage clothing boutique in the northern suburb of Paris, took to Instagram to share a photo revealing that the human rights barrister, 47, had paid them a visit. "We had the immense honor of welcoming Amal Clooney once again in our boutique," the proud host penned. "A loyal client for many years, her elegance and refined eye always make our vintage selection shine brighter. Thank you for your continued trust, Amal."

The photo in question saw the star rocking the ultimate autumn combo. Amal wore a tan trench coat featuring buckled wrist cuffs, buttons forming a double-breasted formation across the front, and handy pockets. Underneath, the wife of the Ocean's Eleven actor, 64, wore a black sweater with a high neck and what looked like a neutral blazer.

As for her hair, the mother-of-two opted for loose waves with a side part, the lengths tumbling over one shoulder to highlight the caramel-hued highlights. Divine!
