If anyone's going to make a Hawaiian shirt look cool, it's Diane Kruger.

The trendsetter's known for making unexpected style moves—clearly, this moment is no exception. 

All dad (and crazy uncle) jokes aside, when you think of heavy-hitting trends, these tropical blouses aren't what come to mind...but they're totally working for us. The important takeaway here is not to go full monty when it comes to a theme-inspired outfit a.k.a. no leis, flip-flops or khakis allowed. The actress mixed cool, everyday street style go-tos with the top (check out those killer metallic flatforms), and that's what makes it all work.
