Kate Hudson looks leggy in tiny denim star shorts and a matching stonewashed shirt as she takes a low-key trip out in New York

Kate Hudson was feeling patriotic on Tuesday night, it seemed, as she stepped out wearing her stars in New York City.

The actress doubled her denim for a low-key outing in the city, showing off her legs as she stepped out of her car in very short shorts.

Gym bunny Kate, 36, shared a hint of her tanned tummy with her shorts rolled down at the middle to make them higher on the thigh.

The blonde was sampling something of a relaxed festival vibe and wore tribal-inspired sandals on her feet with tassels brushing in the wind from her hippie shoulder bag.

She was sure to keep her shades close, tucked in at the neck of her shirt, despite it being an early evening outing for the Hollywood star. 

Kate's tresses were short and choppy, while her make-up was dewy and natural with just a little liner under the eyes.

Be a style star in Kate's Rails denim shirt

Keeping it casual, Kate Hudson rocked her signature boho chic style in New York wearing a star print shirt with matching shorts and a grey tee. Kate then accessorized her look with Aztec print sandals and a matching fringed bag.

Kate’s co-ords are from Californian fashion label Rails who have become synonymous with luxe plaid shirts and have a dedicated celeb following. Chances are if you see one of the Kardashian-Jenner clan wearing a checked button down- it’s almost certainly Rails.

Mixing things up this season, Rails have introduced various printed denims, but this cute star motif one has got to be our favorite. Click right to get the shirt now from Saks Fifth Avenue, then complete the look with the matching shorts below.

Alternatively, take your pick from our edit in the carousel. If the matchy-matchy look isn’t for you, one of these shirts would look just as great teamed with skinny jeans and a biker jacket for off-duty vibes.
