Reese Witherspoon is the queen of casual but sophisticated everyday style — and her latest outfit proves just that.
The actress recently stepped out in Los Angeles wearing a pair of linen shorts with a denim button-down shirt, sunglasses, and an oversized Panama hat. Linen shorts are a summer staple for their breathability and light-as-air feel (unlike denim shorts). Witherspoon’s shorts were mid-thigh length and had a roomy design for extra airflow.
She isn’t the only celeb turning to linen bottoms to beat the heat this summer. Sandra Bullock, Katie Holmes, and more A-listers have been wearing breezy line pants this summer, which offer the same comfy vibe. But, sometimes, the temperature demands shorts. And we found shorts similar to Witherspoon’s from Amazon, Nordstrom, and more — starting at just $17.
