Gwyneth Paltrow Wore Anti-Jeans Pants With Katie Holmess Go-To Divisive Sandal

Gwyneth Paltrow will always be Pepper Potts to me—but her day-to-day style says otherwise. It’s often made up of casual separates, including baggy pants, athletic wear, and laid-back dresses. Her most recent look followed suit, hinging on the coastal grandma trend.

Paltrow wore a nonchalant ensemble made up of summer-perfect pieces, including aviator sunglasses, a simple tank top, and striped sweater tied around her neck. She slung on a bohemian crossbody satchel and wore breezy trousers.

Dreams Pairs Fisherman Sandal

Her anti-jeans pants appeared to be lightweight—which is perfect for the hot, sticky months—and fell past her ankles. Similar bottoms, like this Caslon drawstring version, have the same waist ruching, something that’s essential for feeling comfortable whether sitting for a picnic or walking around the neighborhood. 

Paltrow-inspired pants are additionally great for summer travel. Instead of wearing bulky sweatpants, consider airy trousers that polish up any airport outfit. Plus, it’s one less item you have to pack in your bag, since they can be re-worn during the trip itself. Dress them up with braided sandals and a knit blouse, or opt for athletic sneakers and a crop top.

But we can’t talk about Paltrow’s look without calling out her divisive footwear. Fisherman sandals are taking over the summer fashion scene, with Katie Holmes, Hailey Bieber, and fashion editors opting for the style. It’s an unexpected footwear choice considering feminine silhouettes (such as Mary Janes and kitten heels) have been taking center stage—but I’m here for it.

The ventilated silhouette isn’t only essential for the season, but versions like this $30 Amazon find are so easy to style. Plus, they’re often very comfortable and feel super secure, especially compared to barely there flip-flops that fly off with each step.
