Athletic shorts may have been designed for practicality for athletes, but in 2026, they have emerged as a fashion statement among the style set. These shorts, whether colourful track styles or neutral versions made from performance fabrics, pair well with other sporty items like sports bras and running sneakers. However, to keep them feeling fresh for 2026, it's all about the styling. One elegant way to do this is to take inspiration from Olivia Wilde's recent outfit.

Stepping out this weekend in L.A., Wilde confirmed the athletic shorts trend, styling a red pair with an elegant shoe trend. Instead of opting for trainers, which might have seemed the most sensible option, she chose classic loafers, creating an intentional and unexpectedly cool outfit that feels perfectly suited to summer 2026.

To finish, Wilde styled her look with retro, sporty, and menswear-inspired pieces. She layered on an oversize stripe button-down shirt, a baseball cap, and micro crew socks. The muted hues of her shirt and hat grounded the look, making the red shorts not seem too bold.

These days, there’s so much more to being a celebrity than simply showing up on a red carpet. The rise of off-duty dressing has made any territory—whether it be the departure hall of an airport or the car park of a grocery store—an opportunity to showcase one's personal style. In recent years, the workout studios frequented by the rich and famous have become a common backdrop for them to regularly display their street style, leading to some memorable celebrity leggings and trainers outfits that are certainly worth coveting.

Indeed, the gym is a great equaliser. Whether you’re someone like Iris Law, who is leading the revival of the 2000s activewear aesthetic, or more of a classicist like Jennifer Aniston, who is never far from a two-piece set for her Pilates classes, the pieces we move in are relatively the same. (See: a pair of stretchy pants, a supportive sports bra and some sort of oversized jacket to hide ourselves under once the session is over.)

Of course, it’s not just when exercising that chic leggings looks are exhibited. Those with taste know that this practical silhouette suits a wide range of settings, whether it's Kendall Jenner eating out at Sushi Park in stirrups and a kitten heel or Nicola Coughlan wearing court shoes with a waisted funnel-neck jacket whilst out and about in London.

However, given that leggings are often paired with trainers, it seemed fitting to look at all the chic outfits spotted this year alone. As these looks prove, this outfit formula is truly anything but basic, although it relies on some wardrobe staples to do so, meaning that replicating these looks is a matter of pulling pieces that you already own. And, thanks to a roster of leading brands like Adanola, Vuori and Alo Yoga, a good leggings and trainer outfit isn’t an afterthought, but a very considered choice.

So, whether you’re looking to elevate your own errands-running looks or are simply curious to know how these stars dress for their least public appearances, scroll on ahead of the 6 chicest celebrity trainer and leggings outfits of 2026.

The 6 Best Celebrity Leggings and Trainers Outfits of 2026

1. Hailey Bieber

Style Notes: Hailey Bieber’s approach to fashion is two-fold. Straddling both slinky and oversized shapes with aplomb, you’ll often find her in either a sensual mini or a low-fi ‘fit that takes cues from traditional menswear tailoring. Here, you can see her leggings and trainers outfit sits at the perfect intersection of both. With a fitted, quarter-zip jacket, flared leggings and sneakers designed by her husband, Justin Bieber, this look bridges casual ease with classic elegance.

2. Dakota Johnson

Style Notes: Dakota Johnson has made a home-away-from-home at Tracey Anderson’s Studio City gym. You’ll often find the actress starting her day with a sweat, meaning that there’s no shortage of enviable leggings and trainers ensembles to choose from. In saying that, this outfit is particularly cool. Underscored with a sort of SoCal effortlessness synonymous with the 36-year-old is known for, the addition of the trending bolero top, tassel accent and cobalt blue to an otherwise standard activewear outfit is particularly commendable.

Shop the Look:

3. Margot Robbie

Style Notes: Given the fact that she hails from the beachy suburbs of Queensland, it should come as no surprise that Margot Robbie looks in her element when dressed the most carefree. Between her charming pigtails, on-trend Loewe Ballet Runners and borrowed-from-the-boys long-sleeved crew neck, this is totally something you’d spot along a coastal walk in Los Angeles or to a casual coffee run in Stoke Newington.

Shop the Look:

4. Olivia Wilde

Style Notes: Another adherent of Tracey Anderson’s method, Olivia Wilde is a regular at the celebrity trainer’s studio. As a result, you’ll notice the actress-turned-director’s workout uniform to be quite varied, ranging from a one-piece unitard to monochromatic sets that complement her emotional support waterbottle. Here, she’s at her most conventional, wearing a triangle-shaped bralette with navy leggings and black trainers. Peep her teddy-esque jacket, too.

5. Ana De Armas

Style Notes: What does a Louis Vuitton ambassador wear to the gym? Answering this question is none other than Ana De Armas. As it turns out, nothing too different from what anyone else would wear, proving that those who court designer interest aren’t immune to the appeal of a sturdy pair of leggings and practical trainers. Just add a Speedy, et voila!

Shop the Look:

6. Mia Goth

Style Notes: On the red carpet, Mia Goth is the pinnacle of elegance in Jonathan Anderson’s romantic designs for Dior. On the streets, her outfits are far more understated, proving that a well-edited wardrobe can consist of simple pieces that do all the legwork.

When celebrities choose to wear an affordable item, we tend to take notice. Seeing as Hollywood has access to the very best in everything (the best facialists, manicurists, and of course, stylists), it should come as no surprise that the wardrobe's of the A-list would be equally as exclusive. And for the most part, they are. Celebs make headlines for wearing the latest designer It bags and those designers also clamor to have famous faces wear their collections. In other words, most have their pick of luxury labels, but they love an affordable fashion find just like us because, well, sometimes the cheaper option really is the best.

Recently we've noticed some of the best-dressed stars in wallet-friendly pieces, so we figured it was worth sharing. From the £6 tights Taylor Swift wore all over NYC to the sneakers Jennifer Lawrence just stepped out in that could be the next It pair, these are the under-£150 items celebrities are prioritising right now. 

1. Puma Palermo Sneakers

One thing about Emily Ratajkowski is that you can always rely on her for a good affordable find. When she's not making a strong case for a Zara accessory, she's probably wearing a cool pair of sneakers that won't break your budget. Case in point? Her latest pair, Puma's new Palermo Sneakers that brand ambassador Dua Lipa has also been repping. They're a slim-sole style that comes in black and white for $90, so they have all the fixings to become the next It sneakers.

2. Heaven Mayhem Earrings

Bold '80s earrings are suddenly the only jewellery trend anyone can talk about and despite being able to wear whichever designer pair they choose, celebs are favoring the under-£100 pairs from Australian brand Heaven Mayhem. Recently, Hailey Bieber wore the sculptural silver Bean earrings, and Lori Harvey likewise opted for the Tabi style. 

3. Calzedonia Sheer Tights

What if I told you that for the price of an oat milk latte with tip you could copy Taylor Swift's style? I'm not lying. While out to dinner in NYC, the artist wore a pair of sheer tights from Calzedonia that Hailey Bieber is also a fan of. With varying levels of sheer to choose from, it's no wonder celebs are stocking up on the winter staple from this Italian lingerie site.

4. Adidas Gazelle Sneakers

Jennifer Lawrence's closet is filled with brands like The Row and Toteme, so it's telling when she still reaches for an affordable pair of sneakers from Adidas. Recently, she wore Gazelles in a dusty blush shade which she styled with Toteme's dreamy Annecy coat and Loewe's viral Puzzle Tote. Move over, Sambas.

5. DMY by DMY Sunglasses

If it seems like everyone and their mother is wearing DMY by DMY, it's because they are. From Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid to Olivia Rodrigo and Laura Harrier, there's just something about the retro-style shades that has celebrities in a grip. It's Rodrigo's pick, the '90s-inspired oval Valentina style, that's arguably the best buy. Rodrigo's brown version are currently sold out, but the tortoiseshell below are incredibly similar.

6. Intimissimi Boat Neck Modal Cashmere Ultralight Top

Nope, not even celebs are immune to a TikTok viral fashion buy. Jasmine Tookes, our quiet-luxury style icon, recently attended an event for Intimissimi and opted for the Boat Neck Modal Cashmere Ultralight Top that my entire For You Page is obsessed with. The top was sold out for a while due a spike in demand but has just recently come back in stock in a drove of colors.

7. Flore Flore Esmé Tank

Celebs are wearing a basics brand you've probably never heard of (but should). That muscle tank Kendall Jenner wore? The baby tee that Hailey Bieber loves? Yep, they're all from Flore Flore, a Amsterdam-based label making some of the best sustainable basics right now. You have our word that they won't stay under the radar for very long, though.

8. Adidas Samba Sneakers

Olivia Wilde bought into the Samba craze and is making sure she gets her cost per wear down the zero. She's been spotted wearing her black pair all over L.A. from the gym and out to lunch, underscoring just how versatile the sneakers really are.

9. ALO Airbrush Streamlined Bra Tank

Yep, even Laura Harrier's gym outfits are covetable. As soon as I spotted her wearing this adorable ALO bra top, I raced to the site to add it to my own cart. Her exact color tragically isn't available anymore, but the Airbrush Stremlined Bra Tank does come in a few more colours like a striking cherry red.

10. Aligne Daphne Blazer

Chances are you've seen this blazer a lot on your Instagram recently. Am I right? Well there's a good reason. With a chic hourglass shape and spring-ready butter yellow, it's the strikes the perfect balance between trendy and timeless, and would make a very stylish addition to anyone's capsule wardrobe.

Though the advent of autumn isn't typically one to incline you reach for you shortest shorts, there seems to be something in the air this season that's encouraging our favourite celebrities to do exactly that.

Maybe the emergence of the micro-short is the natural retort to the jorts trend that dominated the summer months, or perhaps the trend has caught on as an alternative way to layer now that tights weather has returned. Whatever the culprit, we're spotting micro-shorts here, there and everywhere this fashion month.

Emma Corrin wore full Miu Miu to Venice International Film Festival in September.

Emerging in head-to-toe Miu Miu at the 80th Venice International Film Festival this September, Emma Corrin styled their micro-shorts with a tonal khaki cardigan layered on top of a white layering top and black semi-sheer tights. The actor styled their look with a black Miu Miu handbag and patent leather buckle loafers for the occasion.

Only weeks later actor and director Olivia Wilde embraced the divisive trend styling another tonal look in a classic autumnal shade to the Michael Kors Collection 2024 Runway Show in New York on Monday.

Olivia Wilde styled brown micro-shorts to the Michael Kors fashion show during New York Fashion Week.

Wearing her micro-shorts with a matching brown slim-fitting jumper, and brown knee high boots, Wilde accessories with a brown fringed handbag and black Rayban sunglasses.

Wearing her down with a subtle wave, she parted her locks in the middle for an effortless take on fashion week dressing.

Perhaps kicking off the divisive trend was Kendall Jenner, who in November of last year sported the style whilst out on a walk in L.A.

Also opting to style her shorts with a monochrome looks, the model wore opaque tights with black slingbacks and a black jumper—which she wore on top of a white layering top.

Do it like the celebs and show winter that you're not giving in by styling the micro-shorts trend well past the summer months.

Olivia Wilde's casual style is often very casual—as in she wears leggings a lot. (It's worth noting that the paparazzi clearly camp out at her gym on a regular basis.) But while out with friends a few days ago in L.A., Wilde traded leggings for a pair of cropped trousers, which she paired with an oversize striped button-down shirt and a crossbody Saint Laurent bag. But of course, I'm here to talk about her shoes.

If you're looking for a way to make cropped trousers or jeans look fresh, look no further. The flats trend Wilde wore is a great success with cropped trousers. That trend is chunky loafers, the shoe style that celebrities can't get enough of (Hailey Bieber and Katie Holmes among them) and has become a staple in most fashion people's closets.

While loafers of all types are cool right now, it's chunky styles that undoubtedly give the most trend-forward edge to an outfit, cropped-pant outfits included. Scroll to shop the current pairs that I think are the chicest in case Wilde has unknowingly influenced you.

Between dating drama and Don't Worry Darling, the past year has seen Olivia Wilde dominate headlines, but we're not one for idle gossip—instead, we've been focusing on the actor and director's style, which has been incredibly impressive of late. And recently, Wilde was spotted while out shopping in Paris wearing what just might be the most ideal cold-weather denim outfit we've seen this season. 

Clad in bootcut jeans, an oversize black shearling biker jacket, and sold-out Khaite Calgary boots, Wilde managed to wear a look that's both accessible and aspirational—lest we forget to point out the Proenza Schouler PS1 Tiny satchel she was toting—for anyone seeking easy winter-outfit inspo.

Paired with a warm turtleneck jumper and red manicure, the fresh-faced star's look reminds us that a great pair of jeans is essential for all seasons, but it's the accessories and outerwear that make even the most basic outfits into the perfect winter denim look. 

If you're channeling big Olivia Wilde energy in 2023, then you've come to the right place. Ahead, we've pulled several black jackets, boots, bags, and, of course, jeans to help you achieve this Wilde-approved look this season.

As far as celebrities go, you might be surprised to know that Olivia Wilde is one that we always look to for denim inspiration. She wears jeans a lot—even on the red carpet from time to time. Flared, straight-leg, baggy, skinny—you name it and she's worn it. But for a day out and about in Los Angeles earlier this week, Wilde wore a style that's new for her, and it's one that always comes back around: sailor jeans.

Sailor jeans are basically high-waisted jeans that are fitted at the top and wide-leg toward the bottom. They often have details such as patch pockets, double buttons, front seams, and thick, stitched hems. They can, like most denim styles, very easily be dressed up or down. They are a style of denim we've commonly come to associate with French girls, so it makes sense that Wilde's pair is from Veronica Beard—a brand that celebrates the joys of a capsule wardrobe (something French women swear by) and also has noticeable hints of Parisian style running throughout the line. Wilde's particular pair have sold out, but the brand offers many similar versions, some of which you can shop below.

Like skinny jeans, sailor jeans often come with a little added stretch in the weave, so if that's what you love about more fitted jeans but feel ready for a change, perhaps Wilde's sailor jeans will inspire you to try something new for the season or year ahead.

This story was originally published on Who What Wear US and has since been updated. 

I’m calling it—2023 is going to be the biggest and best year for beauty yet. In the last few years, there’s been a continued shift in the industry which has led to the rule book has been well and truly scrapped, perhaps for good. The world of beauty has become less about seeking supposed perfection and more of a safe space for self expression and experimentation—I, for one, am here for it. Because why shouldn’t you wear a neon eyeshadow to do the weekly food shop if it feels good?

Taking the above into consideration, there was one makeup artist I knew I had to pin down for a DMBC (deep and meaningful beauty chat). With 20+ years experience in the industry, makeup artist, Jo Baker has become known for her out-of-the-box red carpet looks she artfully creates for a host of celebrity clientele. Think Lucy Boynton, Olivia Wilde and Sharon Stone. "Humanity has become so open and inclusive,” explains Baker. "There is no beauty standard anymore, it’s getting smashed daily. We are at the point of no return where anything goes and anything is possible and we are going to continue to see more art through beauty."

"Back in the day you found your perfect foundation and stuck to it. You found your perfect eyeshadow palette that made your eyes look great and you stuck to it. It was very much ‘I’ve found my format of what makes me pretty, so I’m just going to stay there.’ It couldn’t be more opposite today. There’s a complete shift where everyone is almost having this explosion of self expression. There are neons and pastels and primary colours and gemstones, and all of these things that have become really big in my personal way of doing makeup in the last few years. I feel next year there’s going to be a further extension of that.”

Such belief Baker has in this beauty movement, she co-founded BAKEUP, a brand specifically designed to push the boundaries of experimental beauty and self-expression. "It's going to give people the encouragement, the invitation and the permission to play and see makeup as this amazing, expressive tool to just have fun and be whoever you want to be each day depending on your mood.” Keep your eyes peeled for its launch into the UK in the new year.

With help from Baker and the SS23 catwalks, I bring you seven super fun beauty trends you can recreate at home with ease. 

1. Colour Burst

Models on countless catwalks were flourished with a splash of colour across their lids. I noticed mint green at DSquared2, lavender at Prabal Gurung and royal blue at Dries Van Noten. The charm of this trend is that you can opt for a pastel shade or dial it up with a brighter pigment. Finish off the look with a simple slick of mascara.

Shop the trend:

2. Elegant Embellishment

According to Baker, this is set to be one of the biggest beauty trends of 2023. "Gemstones give a much better payoff than a sparkly eyeshadow because of how they hit the light,” she explains. If you’re reading this as someone who likes to play it safe—don't stress! "You can dial things up and dial things down, so even if you’re conservative and not very adventurous you can still wear gemstones in a way that’s very simplistic.”

Shop the trend:

3. Mega Metallics

Metallics have swept across both fashion and beauty, and runways such as Chloe, Jill Sander and Valentino very much proved that. Take inspiration from A list makeup artist Hung Vanngo, who perfectly shade-matched a striking gold eyeshadow to the shimmering sequins on Florence Pugh’s co-ord. A match made in heaven.

Shop the trend:

4. Draped Blush

The beauty trend first popularised in the ‘70s will have a massive resurgence in 2023 thanks to Aliétte, Christian Cowan and Etro. Fun fact: Baker created this look on Sharon Stone for the cover of Harper's Bazaar Spain (above). "More mature women are craving something different,” explains Baker. "[Stone] said she wanted to have fun with makeup and told me to do what I wanted as she’s been painted in a classic, predictable, expected level of beauty her whole life. All the young kids are having fun, so why can’t she as well? Why can’t she feel youthful and experimental? This is definitely not just a Gen Z movement.”

Shop the trend:

5. Neon Lips

Glazed and glossy lips have been a go-to look for the past year thanks to the likes of Hailey Bieber and Kendall Jenner. I come bearing good news for those with an extensive lipstick wardrobe of bright hues— neon matte shades spanning the entire colour wheel were seen at across the summer runways. Don't mind me, just dusting off my MAC Liquid Lip Colour.

Shop the trend:

6. Gothic Glam

Sharpen your black kohl eyeliner and dig out your smokiest grey-toned eyeshadow palette because grunge glamour is back in the classiest way. A go-to look for Olivia Wilde by Baker, it's all about running the liner across the top and bottom lash line and then going in with an eyeshadow to create the smudged effect. To keep it looking clean and elevated, use a full coverage concealer under the eyes and finish with a nude lipstick and a helping of blusher.

Shop the trend:

7. Linear Lids

Spotted at a handful of catwalk shows and already all over Instagram, the possibilities really are endless when you start to explore the options for lined eyelid designs. Whether you use an eyeshadow, kohl or liquid liner, you have complete creative control over the thickness and the colour of the line.

Next Up: 15 Party Makeup Looks That Are Low-Key and Effortless

Leave it to celebrities to be fashion's earliest adopters. Now that the spring 2023 shows have come to a close, we've done our top-level reporting on the trends to know for next season, but we typically have to wait another six months for those aforementioned trends to actually hit the market and the closets of fashion people. It turns out the rules of this waiting game don't apply to A-listers.

In the wake of Fashion Month, we've already spotted a number of our most stylish stars sporting the trends we just saw gliding down the runways a mere matter of weeks prior. How is this even possible? Well, celebs either have access to the industry's top stylists to pull the looks for them, or they have a close relationship with designers themselves and can snatch these fresh-off-the-runway looks before anybody else does. So whether you're looking for inspiration on how to translate 2023's major trends to your own wardrobe or you're simply curious to find out styles celebs are backing, look no further than the below six outfits.

From sheer dresses to knee-length skirts, celebrities are already all over these 2023 trends, and we're not even close to the new year.

Sleek Maxi Hemlines

As a longtime brand ambassador, Hailey Bieber favours Saint Laurent for almost all of her red carpet appearances. Most recently, the Rhode founder stepped out in one of the spring 2023 looks that showed in Paris only a few short weeks prior: a slinky copper-hued column dress that she wore to the Elle Women in Hollywood celebration. Maxi hemlines were all over the spring collections, and this Bieber ensemble cements them as a key trend to know. 

Shop the trend:

Knee-Length Skirts

On Emily Ratajkowski: Dolce & Gabbana skirt; Louis Vuitton bag; Khaite Davis Knee High Boots (£1020)

Knee-length skirts are notoriously tricky to style, which is why we haven't seen too many street style moments showcasing the trend—yet. But leave it to EmRata and her low-key style to make the trend look downright approachable. She styled hers with tall knee boots and a button-down shirt, proving that all you need to pull off the look are a few cool staples.

Shop the trend:

Sheer Dresses

On Jenna Ortega: Valentino dress and Tan-Go Platform Pointed Toe Pump (£810)

Sheer dresses were all over the spring runways from New York to Paris, so the trend had already been on our radar as one to watch. Imagine our surprise and delight when none other than Gen Z scream queen and the star of our October cover Jenna Ortega stepped out in a sheer lace LBD and sky-high platforms, wearing two daring trends in one go. 

Shop the trend:

Tight, Tall Boots

On Amal Clooney: Stella McCartney Asymmetric Ribbed Organic Cotton Turtleneck Dress (£750) and Frayme Small Shoulder Bag (£1175)

Amal Clooney's choice in shoes remains controversial for the airport, but context aside, they happen to be a bubbling shoe trend, and the runways are confirming it. At Jil Sander, Diesel, and Fendi, tight and tall boots popped up in a number of collections, and they have us questioning whether they'll replace the structured knee boots we're all wearing now.

Shop the trend:

Big Belts

Trend queen Bella Hadid is at it again—this time with a 2023 trend that's actually quite classic. We love it when classic items become trendy, so we were thrilled to see that belts of all kinds flooded the spring/summer 2023 runways. But the best pairing of them all (in our opinion, at least) is jeans with a classic leather belt in brown or black, and Hadid seems to fully agree.

Shop the trend:

Shimmery and Sheer Numbers

On Olivia Wilde: Alexandre Vauthier gown; Jennifer Meyer earrings

"Naked" dresses are nothing new, but each season, they come back in a different form. For next spring? The crystal-adorned sheer gown that Olivia Wilde wore to last month's Academy Museum Gala is a strong contender. The daring look may be a fashion risk, but Wilde is one of a growing number of celebs who are embracing the shimmery see-through look, which now includes Ratajkowski and Hannah Bronfman. On the runway, Fe Noel showed a stunning gown cut from a similar crystal-mesh fabric and finished with feather-trimmed cuffs.

When it comes to spring and summer attire, we don't tend to think of putting red and black together—to us, this screams Christmas party. Lately, however, a handful of our favourite style stars are all about incorporating the rich combination into their wardrobe's rotation, so whoever says you have to stick to pastels and neutrals post-winter is clearly misguided. From Irina Shayk’s sultry-chic look at L’Oréal’s Red Obsession party to Selena Gomez’s cool-girl combo on the streets of Paris Fashion Week, this styling trick looks here to stay.

Sometimes all it takes is a swap of the hat (January Jones), an interesting mix of textures (Jessica Biel), or a pretty pastel hue (Olivia Wilde) to make your cold weather wardrobe feel new again. And there’s more wear that came from just beyond this slide. 

Tip: Mix rich textures for an all-black look that is anything but basic.

While promoting her latest film, The Truth About Emanuel, Biel proved all-black doesn't have to be boring by simply combing different fabrics and textures. The actress paired AllSaints’ Belmont Leather Jacket ($525) with an eyelet skirt from Giambattista Valli’s Resort 14 collection, Fendi’s Borderline Clutch ($860), and Bionda Castana’s Daphne Bis Pumps ($939).

Spotted outside the No. 11 Downing Street Christmas party in London, singer-songwriter Vickers assured us wearing two trends—in this case, Topshop’s Plaid Crop Trousers ($80) and a black turtleneck—is always better than one. 

Get The Look:

Joe Fresh Cropped Plaid Pants ($34); Uniqlo Alpaca Blend Turtle Neck Sweater ($20) in Black.

Tip: Swap a slouchy beanie for a more polished beret.

Jones bundled up Parisian-style for a lunch trip to Pasadena earlier this month, teaming a black beret with Leon Max’s Doubleweave Wool Coat ($498), MiH’s Ellsworth Jeans ($209) in Sugarblue, Loewe's Cruz Bag ($2600), and Coye Nokes black suede booties.
