Margot Robbie Just Wore the Sophisticated Skirt-and-Shoe Combination That French Girls Love
Forget jeans and flats—the most sophisticated dressers are opting for this elegant skirt-and-shoe combination this season.
If you want to channel a sophisticated energy as we move towards the new season, might I suggest taking a dose of styling advice straight from the streets of Paris? Specifically, there's one skirt-and-shoe pairing that Margot Robbie and the chicest French women have long relied on to create an elegant silhouette.
Choosing a black fishtail skirt that fell just below the knee, Margot's midi-length style already had a decidedly sophisticated feel, which she amplified with a thoughtful shoe choice. Rather than opting for a simple slingback or classic Parisian Mary Jane, Margot turned to one of the season's most elegant shoe trends: the T-bar heel.
A long-time favourite amongst the French fashion set, T-bar heels take their name from the distinctive T-shaped strap that traces across the foot. Whilst Margot's pair featured additional straps that elegantly caged the foot, the style is typically defined by a sleek, singular strap running vertically down the shoe.
Paired with her calf-skimming skirt, the shoes created an uncomplicated and polished silhouette that can see one through a range of elevated occasions.
An elegant alternative to a dress, this skirt-and-shoe combination is one I'd recommend to anyone looking to cultivate a more elevated wardrobe for the new season. If you're feeling inspired by Paris's latest styling export, read on to discover the midi skirts and T-bar heels I'm recommending now.
