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 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.
Lawrence was photographed while filming a commercial in New York City earlier this week, and let’s just say, the LBD she wore on set deserves a standing ovation. While we’re not sure of the brand, we are certain that its design and tailoring was impeccable, featuring big, bold structured shoulders, a cinched-in waist, and long, billowy sleeves.
Lawrence effortlessly proved that ballet flats are timeless, wearing Alaïa’s patent-leather cross-strap style. She styled them like so many of our favorite French women do: with a voluminous midi skirt. Then, she subtly and expertly layered more polished elements like an oversize burgundy button-down shirt and tortoiseshell sunglasses that proved to be the perfect finishing touches.
Ballet flats have been a favorite among the fashion set for a few years now and have proven to even transcend seasons. (Think flats with socks.) They offer a refreshing change from sandals and sneakers and are a perfect choice when you’re ready to give your feet a break from heels.
