The Affordable "Ugly" Shoes Bella Hadid's Already Worn 4 Times This Week
Bella Hadid has a knack for making styling affordable fashion finds to perfection. Remember when she wore a $5000 outfit and accessorized it to perfection with a pair of $45 hoops? And who could forget her epic $130 Mango boots? Her most recent affordable find comes in the form of a pair of Dr. Martens Holly Lolita Platform Oxfords, a chunky-soled oxford coated in a slick patent finish, which she wore back-to-back four times last week. For a supermodel who has access to the world's most luxurious fashion houses, it's a pretty big deal to see her choose a pair of under-$150 shoes—four times in a row, no less.
On her way to and from the recent Versace Men's F/W 19 show in Milan to back home in New York, Hadid wore the platforms nonstop last week, clearly playing favorites with her vast enviable shoe collection. Her platforms also hit on a major 2019 shoe trend that most of us never saw coming, despite Hadid having been a fan of elevated soles of all kinds for a while now.
Our take? Hadid tends to lead the trend pack, being first to step out in the latest buzzy style before everyone else. So prepare yourselves because this won't be the last time you'll see the clunky platforms. Keep reading to see all the ways Hadid styled the shoes last week and then shop similar pairs. Sadly her exact style is no longer available.
