Blake Lively Makes a Case for a Leather Shorts Suit in 90-Degree Weather

Blake Lively continues to prove her sartorial versatility amid her It Ends With Us press tour.

The actor has spent the past week debuting one floral look after the next—from feathery minidresses to see-through tops and voluminous skirts. And on Monday, she did it again. In less than 24 hours, Lively changed into a series of different spring-appropriate ensembles, and despite the 90-degree weather in New York City, she pulled them all off without flinching.

The most surprising fit, in our eyes, was the Gossip Girl star’s leather shorts suit. While it is hard to imagine a scenario in which one would choose to wear head-to-toe leather in the Manhattan summer, Lively made a case for the material in a cropped jacket and mid-length shorts. Both pieces were coveted in a colorful floral embroidery, and to stay at least a little cool, Lively wore the jacket unzipped, with no bra or top.

The set, from Dauphinette, is almost sold out, but if you’re speedy, you can shop it here.

Lively finished her minimalist-meets-maximalist look with strappy black heels embellished with gems in different vibrant hues, plus white circular crystal earrings, a colorful sparkly manicure, and rosy makeup.

The actor, who recently launched her new hair care line, wore her dirty-blonde hair in her signature loose waves. “I was always interested in hair,” Lively recently told Harper’s Bazaar of her new venture. “I mean, I had more opportunities come to me in the hair care space, thankfully, than in any other space. Like more than my real job of acting.”

She added, “I never changed my hair much. I have a look that I like, and it became quite distinct to me. If I wanna walk down the street in New York City, literally, if I just put my hair in a bun, I can walk around and people don’t look twice.”
