Jennifer Lawrence Just Wore the Simple Sandals That Make All Skirts Look 10x Chicer

I don’t know about you, but I’ve always found skirts to be some of the trickiest pieces in my wardrobe to style. Don’t get me wrong—I adore them—but I’m constantly caught in a push-pull between wanting to wear them and not quite knowing how to make them work. During the colder months, it’s easier: knee-high boots and skirts are one of my all-time favourite pairings. But come summer? That’s when things get a little more complicated.

So, I’ve been patiently waiting for a hit of new-season skirt styling inspiration, and this week, it finally arrived. In the form of a lace-trim skirt and elegant strappy tan sandals outfit, courtesy of Jennifer Lawrence.

Jennifer Lawrence steps out in New York styling 3/4 length lace-trim trousers with a lace top and a oversized graphic tee. She styled her look with a red handbag and tan toe sandals.

Wearing a white lace-trim skirt that swished just so, Lawrence, forgoing her usual flip-flops, opted instead for sleek, light tan sandals with delicate straps that wrapped around the foot. In a versatile neutral shade, they added a sense of ease and polish while complementing the length and colour of her lacy skirt.

Working well with the midi-length and neutral shade of Lawrence's skirt, these cameleonic shoes would also style chicly with shorter minis, with the neutral shade of the shoe giving the appearance of longer legs.

Keeping things cool and casual, Lawrence paired the ensemble with an oversized graphic T-shirt, a bright red Hermès Victoria Leather bag, a white baseball cap and a layered stack of necklaces, creating an interesting ensemble that could stand up against New York’s high-summer heat.

Finally satisfied: I’ll be styling my skirts with sleek tan strappy sandals for the rest of the season. If you’re tempted to do the same, keep scrolling for my edit of the best lace-trim skirts and tan sandals to wear right now.
