H&M's New $35 Shorts Are a Dead Ringer for Ones Kate Middleton Wore
While doing my daily scroll through H&M (it's part of my job, I swear!) I came across a pretty pair of shorts that reminded me of a pair Kate Middleton wore last year. Not too short and not too tight, I truly think these may be the perfect pair—the shorts that solve all my usual gripes. Don't you hate when the shorts market is saturated with tiny denim cutoffs and few other alternatives?
H&M's Linen-Blend Shorts ($35) are a dead ringer for Middleton's pair and are bound to sell out soon. I highly recommend copying the Princess of Wales and styling these shorts with a striped sweater for a nautical-meets-preppy look. Hot tip: From April 7 to April 9, H&M is offering 20% off sitewide. Scroll below for help re-creating her entire outfit, including her favorite $69 sneakers. What are you waiting for?
On Kate Middleton: Erdem sweater; Holland Cooper shorts; Superga Cotu 2750 Sneakers ($69)

Erin got her start as aBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
