Hailey Bieber Can't Stop Wearing This "Controversial" Denim Trend
Given how often I check street style blogs and photo agency pages, I pretty much see every single outfit worn by celebrities, and of them all, Hailey Bieber's the one I spot the most. But this year, I've found it hard to keep track of all of her looks, particularly because they all sort of look the same. You see, while her nighttime 'fits have been all across the board, her daytime ones have mostly revolved around one item: her vintage 501 Levi's shorts sourced by Denim by Orlee.
So far this summer, I've counted five occasions that Bieber's worn the baggy, low-rise cutoffs, whether she's posted the outfits herself on Instagram or been photographed wearing them around NYC and L.A.. On most of them, she's paired the shorts with her go-to white Leset cropped Kelly tee, a black-and-gold The Row belt, white socks, and either loafers or Adidas Sambas. To dress up the shorts, she added a strapless corset top on one occasion, and on others, statement earrings and designer bags, including Bottega Veneta's Jodie and Saint Laurent's Le 5 à 7 tote.
With practically all of the fashion world to choose from, it says a lot that Bieber can't stop coming back to the shorts that consistently divide opinion. One thing's for sure; she's helping me get over my past denim-short traumas.
