While doing my daily scroll through H&M (it’s part of my job, I swear!) I came across a pretty pair of shorts that reminded me of a pair Kate Middleton wore last year. Not too short and not too tight, I truly think these may be the perfect pair—the shorts that solve all my usual gripes. Don’t you hate when the shorts market is saturated with tiny denim cutoffs and few other alternatives?
H&M’s Linen-Blend Shorts ($35) are a dead ringer for Middleton’s pair and are bound to sell out soon. I highly recommend copying the Princess of Wales and styling these shorts with a striped sweater for a nautical-meets-preppy look. Hot tip: From April 7 to April 9, H&M is offering 20% off sitewide.
