5 Random Trends I'm Borrowing From Celebs

Celebs have access to the coolest and newest pieces in fashion, which means they really help set the trends. One of my favorite ways to observe celebrity style? While I love all the glamour of a stunning red carpet, I tend to take more inspiration from everyday street style looks because they influence how I actually want to get dressed. Right now, the celebrity outfits are *good*, and I have to share some of the random trends they're putting on the map that I want to borrow immediately.

From the Kendall Jenner–approved sandals that are replacing all of your basic pairs to the going-out pieces Bella Hadid is a fan of to the color Rihanna's endorsing that's really taking off, these are the five celebrity-approved style trends to add to your closet now. And yes, I've already shopped each of them out with some picks to add to your shopping cart.

Athletic Shorts

From the silhouettes to the styling, athleisure continues to get reinvented, and athletic shorts are one of the key pieces to own right now. Think of them as this season's answer to bike shorts.

Colorful Button-Downs

Oversize button-downs were one of the key S/S 21 trends we reported on after spotting them on the runways, and they have certainly proven to be one of the most essential buys of the season. They're especially cult-worthy in fun saturated shades.

Cloud Slides

If you're going to add a pair of sandals into your closet, make them a directional pair of cloud slides that have padded straps and cushy soles.
