Suddenly, Every Classy Fashion Person in Paris Is Wearing This Elegant Heeled-Shoe Trend
If you're drawn to the timeless elegance of Mary Janes, the elevated allure of heels, and the effortless appeal of mules, there's exciting news ahead. A new shoe trend has emerged that perfectly merges all three of these stylish elements: Mary Jane heeled mules.
This chic hybrid is quickly gaining traction. During Paris Fashion Week, it was spotted on fashion icons like Hailey Bieber and Kate Moss. Bieber wore a shiny iteration that she paired with a sleek blazer dress, while Moss opted for a polished black patent-leather version, donning it with tailored trousers, a sheer top, and a sharp blazer.
