Not Ballet Flats—Jennifer Lawrence Just Styled Her LBD With an Even More Elegant Shoe
Graceful and comfortable, Jennifer Lawrence stepped out in a glossy pair of satin kitten heels this week. Discover her chic styling below.
If you’re thinking about bolstering your wardrobe with an elegant shoe trend, might I point you towards a pair of satin kitten heels? Defined by their modest heel height and finished with a soft, light-catching sheen, they bring an easy elegance to every outfit. It’s easily one of the chicest styles to have on your radar right now.
Making my case, Jennifer Lawrence stepped out this week in a timeless black dress layered under a longline brown coat, grounding the look with a pair of satin kitten heels. More refined than ballet flats and Mary Janes, yet far less formal than a towering heel, this in-between adds just the right amount of sophistication to her understated ensemble.
What sets satin styles apart from their leather or suede counterparts is their softness and subtle luminosity, which feels especially suited to spring and summer dressing. While Lawrence paired hers with an ankle-grazing hemline, this is a trend that translates just as well to tailored trousers or relaxed denim.
A shoe trend I’d confidently recommend to almost anyone. Scroll on to discover and shop my edit of the best satin kitten heels available now.
