*Not* Black—This is the Spring Shoe Colour Trend Chic Women Over 50 Are Wearing With Trousers Right Now
Instead of black shoes, Meryl Streep just wore the chic spring colour that the coolest dressers are wearing now.
Don't default to black shoes this spring. Instead, take your styling cues from New York's chicest and enliven your outfits with the energetic shoe colour trend that always elevates. Taking my styling cues from one of the chicest over-50s on the scene, I spotted Meryl Streep swapping a ubiquitous pair of black heels for a spring-ready shade of red this week.
Working with the red accents already woven into her outfit, she built a cohesive palette around a letterbox-red jacket, red-framed sunglasses and a tonally striped shirt. Her pointed-toe heels, finished with the season’s coveted high-vamp cut, added depth and polish without overwhelming the look—playing into the vibrancy rather than competing with it.
Peeking out beneath relaxed white trousers, the sharp silhouette of the shoe brought a refined contrast to the fresh neutral base. That said, this vivid shade isn’t limited to lighter tones. It pairs just as well with classic blue denim or deeper hues, injecting a sense of warmth and energy that feels entirely right for spring.
