Sandra Bullock’s lightweight pants are practically magical – and they’re a must-have for summer.
While strolling around New York City on April 25, the Proposal actress skipped the skinny pants for something more…comfortable. She wore black pants that looked both breathable and amazingly fashionable for such a casual style.
With the warm weather balances still tipping back and forth, Bullock donned a cream sweater over a white shirt while still keeping a black overcoat handy. She wore white sneakers, some jewellery, gold sunglasses and the cutest of all – her pup!

We’re not too surprised at the return of flowy styles, as several celebrities have been spotted in them over the past summer as well. Chrissy Tiegen wore a super wide-leg polka dot pair, Meghan Markle slipped into a striped linen pair and Gwyneth Paltrow opted for a cropped version of the breezy trousers. Other celebrities like Ashley Olsen and Rebel Wilson even wore white linen pants in 2021.
Bullock’s draped pair definitely fits into the flowy category, but they’re a little less flowy than Teigen’s, a little more flowy than Markle’s, and obviously a little longer than Paltrow’s. Still, they’re very reasonable for hot temperatures and for many occasions.

These Madewell wide-leg pants are a breezy blessing in disguise. They have a draped leg silhouette similar to Bullock’s and have a ‘lightweight’ feel thanks to a blend of lyocell and linen twill. Plus, they’re so easy to wear with almost anything.
“These are the most comfortable pants I’ve ever worn in my life,” said one shopper. “Since I bought these, I’ve had a hard time bringing myself to wear a different pair of pants.” Sizes for the black pants are already running out, but there are also brown and green options that happen to be almost half the price .
