Jennifer Lawrence Wore the Controversial Shoe Trend That Fashion People Can't Quit
I swear, every time I log onto my computer in the morning to analyze what celebrities wore the night before, I come across Jennifer Lawrence wearing yet another pair of soon-to-go-viral shoes. From hard-to-find Sambas to affordable Vans, buzzy mesh flats to sold-out Mary-Janes—everything she puts on her feet makes the internet go wild and fans of her work and style alike click the purchase button. And the streak isn't ending anytime soon. Curious how I know? She just did it again.
This week, Lawrence was spotted walking around her New York City neighborhood during the East Coast's current heat wave wearing an eye-catching pair of red drawstring trousers with a white tee, black oversized St. Agni satchel, matching bucket hat, and this summer's most sought-after shoes: The Row's Mara Flats. For her stroll, the No Hard Feelings actress chose the rubber, net-like slip-ons in red, matching the controversial jellies to her pants in a casual-cool way that made me, a mega fan of the summer 2024 collection's most prominent shoe style, desire a pair even more than I already did.
Unfortunately for me and everyone else on the wishlist for them, only one size remains on the entirety of the internet (go buy them at Bergdorf Goodman right this second if you're a 12). But don't fret, The Row isn't the only brand getting in on the jelly sandals trend this summer. Scroll down to shop for more kitschy, heat-wave friendly flats that are just as fun but a fraction of the price (and available for purchase right now).
On Jennifer Lawrence: The Row Mara Flat ($890) and Sofia Bucket ($390); Luv Lou Helena Sunglasses ($160); St. Agni Oversized Nubuck Satchel ($405)
Shop jelly sandals:
When one of the top trends of the summer goes on sale during the summer. Iconic.
Just make sure to get a pedicure before you break these out.
I've been obsessed with these for years. They're so comfy and fun to style with socks.
I got a pair of these years ago and have had such a blast playing around with styling. They're amazing.
You might not be able to get the red pair by The Row for a while, so buy these in the meantime and see how you like the jelly sandals trend IRL before investing.
These remind me of an old rubber shoe that The Row made a few years ago. Those went viral too.
