The Gutsy New Trend That Could Replace Bike Shorts

Depending on how you feel about the seemingly everlasting bike shorts trend, you might be either excited or terrified of the trend's even more daring cousin: hot pants. En route to workout classes, Hailey Bieber recently stepped out in two different skin-tight, ultra-short shorts, both by celeb-favorite brand Alo Yoga. The leg-baring look is practically one step past wearing underwear in public, but if you've got it, why not flaunt it? We have no doubt in Bieber's ability to make any trend look cool, and this is certainly no exception.
In both outfits, Bieber balanced the revealing shorts with oversized sweatshirts, making the trend easier to wear than you might think. Of course, hot pants themselves aren't new for 2019, but something tells us that Bieber and Alo Yoga's stamps of approvals will spark a new interest in the trend. Scroll down to see how she's styled the look and shop shorts for yourself.
