The 5 Chicest Ways to Wear Denim Shorts and Flat Sandals
Shorts and sandals go together like bread and butter. If you've been counting down the days when you can finally swap your jeans for cutoffs and boots for sandals, you've come to the right place. Thanks to celebrities like Emma Roberts, Yara Shahidi, Gigi Hadid, and more, we've uncovered some ridiculously cool and easy to re-create outfits to master the shorts-and-sandals combo.
Shahidi, for instance, was spotted in Cuba at a festival wearing a coveted Chanel graphic tee from Karl Lagerfeld's resort 2016 collection shown, but you certainly don't need a designer version to emulate her look. She paired it with cutoffs, Birkenstocks, and a fanny pack, and we highly suggest you do the same. Meanwhile, Roberts wore a pretty floral blouse with her denim shorts, and Nathalie Emmanuelle teamed hers with a Baywatch-worthy swimsuit. Scroll down to see five ways to wear cutoff shorts and flat sandals.
On Emma Roberts: Madewell top (sold out); Mother shorts
On Yara Shahidi: Chanel t-shirt; Birkenstock sandals
On Nathalie Emmanuelle: Soludos Braided Slide Sandals ($99)
On Gigi Hadid: Tommy Hilfiger shorts; Miu Miu bag

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 14 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 2015, 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 Kate and Meghan stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible.
