I Concede! This Shoe Colour Looks Even Chicer With Jeans Than Black and Brown
Jennifer Lawrence confirmed: this spring shoe trend makes jeans look best.
If you’d asked me just a few weeks ago which shoe colours work best with jeans, I’d have answered black or brown. In the depths of winter, the idea of introducing anything brighter felt about as likely as a cloudless blue sky—simply not on the cards. But now, with mid-April sunlight finally cutting through the grey—and one very chic outfit, courtesy of Jennifer Lawrence—my perspective has shifted.
Stepping out in a pair of baggy jeans, Lawrence grounded her look with a vibrant pair of blue flats. Choosing Khaite's Jane Ostrich Leather Ballet Flats (£1670), she brought a fresh, playful energy to an otherwise classic denim outfit. Where black or brown would have blended into the background, this hit of colour lifted the entire look, giving it a distinct sense of personality.
When it comes to styling denim, a tonal shoe can feel the most refined, and this particular hue is quickly weaving its way into more and more spring/summer wardrobes.
Inspired by Jennifer's ever-chic styling, read on to shop my edit of the best blue flats below.
