When it comes to celebs and carrying out mundane tasks, the concept of practicality doesn’t seem to enter into their style vocabulary whatsoever TBH. Seriously, though: we’ve dedicated a whole article to Emily Ratajkowski’s *insane* dog-walking wardrobe, that has seen her take her pooch for a poo in all manner of inappropriate ‘fits ranging from full-on naked dresses to sexy slips and high-waisted hot pants.
Even Gigi Hadid, who has spent the past few months living out an incredibly idyllic existence in the countryside with her daughter Khai, was recently spotted doing a spot of gardening in an actual checkerboard bikini… As ya do!
Well, the latest celeb to join the ranks of the practicality-averse is none other than Vanessa Hudgens – who just shared photos on Insta of herself hiking in a ‘fit that’s more high fashion than it is high altitude…
Yup, that’s Vanessa posing atop a mountain in New Mexico wearing an actual silk maxi skirt and 90s platform slides. How she got up there in such perilous footwear we dread to imagine – but having made it safe and sound, we must say she does look particularly fabulous. And can we take a moment to appreciate her *iconic* (and constantly sold-out) Bottega Veneta drop earrings, too? Suddenly our sweaty sportswear isn’t quite making the cut anymore…
Vanessa’s beauty look for the occasion is utterly glorious, too: that “messy” bun is the perfect mix of effortless and put-together, while her glowing complexion and hint of pink blush is giving healthy, outdoorsy flush. The whole thing is just *chef’s kiss*
We wait with bated breath to see what impractical look she pulls out next. Mountain lake swimming in a ballgown, perhaps?
