Anne Hathaway Just Wore Short Shorts and Flats in the Most Effortlessly Chic Way
Out of all of summer's basics, shorts are easily the trickiest to style. Really, your options are to go the conservative route with a longer, Bermuda-style pair or opt for short shorts, which usually means a choice between athletic shorts and cut-offs. But this week, Anne Hathaway took a cue from her Devil Wears Prada persona and thought up another option that effortlessly merged the elegance of a longer short with the length of a shorter one. Even better, she paired it with low-key sandals and Valentino's next It bag.
Following lunch at Sant Ambroeus, a beloved Milanese restaurant in New York City's SoHo neighborhood, the actor headed outside to hail a cab, and in the process, showcased her easy, summer shorts look. Specifically, Hathaway chose a white, slightly ruched button-down shirt with a pair of breezy shorts that featured slits up both sides. As for accessories, she wore oversize, tortoiseshell sunglasses from Bvlgari, Dolce Gabbana flat sandals, and a hot pink One Stud Valentino bag that J.Lo only just wore on her honeymoon.
Naturally, after spotting a look this good, I went on a search for short shorts that compared. Keep scrolling to shop the pairs I rounded up.
