VB, Dakota and Gigi Just Wore the Classy Shoe Trend That’s All Over Zara and Mango

In case you didn't know, we're living through a red-shoe renaissance and celebrities are leading the pack. Cropping up on some of my favourite celebs on the daily, red shoes are the new-season accessory that the style set is using to elevate their outfits this spring. Tapping into the enduring red colour trend, I've spotted comfortable kicks, sky-high stilettos and trending ballet flats. Freshly inspired by the cool combinations I'm seeing everywhere, scroll for the celebrity red-shoe outfits convincing me that I could really do with a pair of my own this spring.
HOW CELEBRITIES ARE STYLING THE RED SHOE TREND
1. DUA LIPA'S GREY JEANS AND RED HEELS OUTFIT
Style Notes: Whilst red shoes always style well with black and blue denim, an unexpected grey pairing will work to balance the fiery tone. Do it like Dua and wear a sleek slingback pair with timeless straight-leg jeans.

Style Notes: Subtly nodding to the pop of red in the check of her coat, Johnson's red ballet-flat pairing harmonised her outfit whilst picking up on one of the biggest colour trends of the season. Red ballet flats have practically become a 2024 styling essential at this point.
