Alia Bhatt and Ananya Panday shared their off-duty fits in the best looks of the week

What’s low effort and almost always guaranteed to look chic? A white summer dress. Ananya Panday leaned into its easy-breezy allure during a casual beach outing, opting for an ankle-length slip with delicate spaghetti straps and dainty lace trims along the neckline and hem. The airy fabric, subtly pleated with distressed details, struck the perfect balance between relaxed and romantic. Skipping statement accessories, she kept things minimal with just a pair of gold earrings—proof that less really can be more.

Sometimes, all it takes is a pair of jeans and a plain black tee to look effortlessly chic—but if you’re wondering how to take that classic combo up a notch, look to Diana Penty for cues. She styled the off-duty staples with this season’s new It-girl favourite– Puma’s Speedcat Ballet. Sleek, Y2K-inspired, and refreshingly non-chunky, the silhouette offers a pared-back alternative to the usual dad sneakers and slides. Previously spotted on Dua Lipa too, it’s fast becoming the cool-girl shoe of the summer.
