Naturally, each of the ensembles in question always features a forward shoe choice. And after scrolling through the Instagram feeds of some of our favorite style setters that live in Paris, it became evident that there are a few specific pretty shoe trends the majority of Parisians are wearing right now.

Furthermore, the said shoe trends seem to be paired the most with both jeans and skirts—two staples that often complete some of the coolest and most elegant outfits. In terms of the specific styles, it's more relaxed jeans and a variety of skirts (mini, midi, and maxi).

These heels are inherently elegant. While you could really team them with anything, they get an A+ with a skirt.
