Elizabeth Olsen Just Wore Flat Shoes That Will Still Be Stylish In 50 Years

The stories I write for Who What Wear oscillate between trendy and timeless. Sometimes I report on daring celebrity outfits, other times, I cover tried-and-true wardrobe staples. As you might have guessed from my headline, this story fits into the latter camp. 

Photographed arriving at the CBS studios in New York City, Elizabeth Olsen wore the flat shoe trend that will never go out of style: black loafers. They've been popular since the 1930s and show no signs of slowing down. Not only are they a more comfortable alternative to heels, but their versatility cannot be understated. You can style loafers with a pantsuit as Olsen did or pair them with casual ripped jeans. The options are truly endless. Keep scrolling to shop some of my favorite loafers.

Erin Fitzpatrick
Senior News Editor

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 12 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of senior news editor (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
