This month, a Bermuda shorts trend tornado whipped through my closet, clearing out all the five-inch or higher hemlines. Just when I thought I had enough knee-length options, Zendaya, Jennifer Lawrence, Teyana Taylor, and Alexa Chung widened the trend's horizons. On July 22, Chung made it clear that my collection isn't complete without army green Bermuda shorts—and a peep-toe shoe trend to elevate their safari-ready feel.
Bermudas were made for summer days in the city. While in New York, the model proved this by tucking an olive green button-down into wide-leg shorts with ever-so-slightly distressed hems. To make the monochrome set pop, Chung chose all-black accessories including shield-like sunglasses, a single-strap shoulder bag, a studded belt, and the heels on every It girl's summer shoe rack.
