According to the fashionista's stylist, Kate Young, Johnson's style borders between unique glamour and girl-next-door attire. Her clothes reside in the in-between space of being thoughtfully calculated and ethereal while still being casual when the occasion calls for it.

The "Fifty Shades of Grey" star and her styling team consciously decide what she will wear depending on the event and time of day. Of Johnson's formula, Young says:

"Classic, minimal, elegant, with just a little bit of fashion for day."

When it comes to her dolled-up looks for her evening event attire, Young described Johnson as wanting to shine like a disco ball. The 33-year-old's keen eye for fashion is a trait she picked up from her mom.

After years of watching her famous mother dazzle in extravagant outfits as a socialite, Johnson took notes for when she would be old enough to follow in Griffith's footsteps. Over the years, Johnson and her mom have had several matchy mother-daughter moments.

Upon seeing the pictures of the star hauling a brown paper bag and a big watermelon to her car, people commented on the fact that it appeared as though she wasn't wearing a bra. One person stated:

"...she needs a decent bra."

This then led to a bigger debate on the topic of women's undergarments and whether or not one needs to wear a bra. Some expressed that they found it perfectly fine not to wear a bra:
