If You Like Rich-Looking White-Jeans Outfits, Skip Sandals and Pair Denim With This Closed-Toe Alt
Want to make white jeans look expensive? This flat-shoe trend will do the trick.
In my fashion rule book, white jeans are a year-round wardrobe essential; however, I find that I wear them most in the summer because they complement the fresh, crisp feeling of warm weather. Although there are countless ways to style them, the most luxurious look, in my humble opinion, is with sleek-looking flats, like the pair Brooke Shields recently wore.
Last week, while in NYC, the iconic '80s supermodel was photographed strolling through the streets. She was wearing high-waisted, wide-leg white jeans perfect for a sunny afternoon. She styled the jeans with a simple beige tank top, a Gucci Giglio Tote Bag, a baseball cap, and the aforementioned elegant flat shoes—grommet Mary Janes.

Whether you're 60 years old like Shields or 30, grommet Mary Janes paired with white jeans create a timeless and sophisticated look. The flat silhouette maintains an effortless style, and the grommet embellishments add a layer of richness and refined detail that standard Mary Janes can't match. Plus, they look great in the summer and transition seamlessly into fall.
If you're inspired to elevate your warm-weather flat-shoe rotation, this is the style I'd recommend. Keep reading to explore my edit of the best Mary Janes with grommets below.
