Are Beyoncé's shorts a throwback or what? Don't you remember the days when studding a pair of cutoffs and distressing them beyond belief was the perfect afternoon activity? Bey's bringing that look back in a big way. She arrived in Barcelona with JAY-Z in what was practically denim underwear from Coal N Terry Vintage ($108), adding bright pops of color with a Céline colorblock blouse, cherry-red Illesteva sunglasses ($220), and a python-print Dior tote in powder blue.

The star finished her outfit with taupe suede sandals — she didn't need any shoe crazier than that! — and struck a pose for the cameras, flashing all angles of her cheeky bottoms. While we're naturally amused by the color palette Bey was showcasing, we're even more struck by her bootylicious jeans, and you bet we're on board to try them out deep in the heart of Summer.
