VB, Dakota and Gigi Just Wore the Classy Shoe Trend That’s All Over Zara and Mango

In case you didn't know, we're living through a red-shoe renaissance and celebrities are leading the pack. Cropping up on some of my favourite celebs on the daily, red shoes are the new-season accessory that the style set is using to elevate their outfits this spring. Tapping into the enduring red colour trend, I've spotted comfortable kicks, sky-high stilettos and trending ballet flats. Freshly inspired by the cool combinations I'm seeing everywhere, scroll for the celebrity red-shoe outfits convincing me that I could really do with a pair of my own this spring.
HOW CELEBRITIES ARE STYLING THE RED SHOE TREND
1. DUA LIPA'S GREY JEANS AND RED HEELS OUTFIT
Style Notes: Whilst red shoes always style well with black and blue denim, an unexpected grey pairing will work to balance the fiery tone. Do it like Dua and wear a sleek slingback pair with timeless straight-leg jeans.
SHOP THE LOOK:
Distressed leather jackets are trending right now, and I have my eye on this new-season style.
Style with a bright white dress or wear with your favourite jeans.
2. GIGI HADID'S LEGGINGS AND RED TRAINERS OUTFIT
Style Notes: The colourful trainer trend has been taking off this season and celebrities seem to have a soft spot for the scarlet variety. Adding a springtime twist to your cold-weather staples, this vivid styling hack will give you a dose of spring energy whilst the weather remains cool.
SHOP THE LOOK:
Trust me: leggings are one of the most versatile clothing items you can introduce into your wardrobe.
3. DAKOTA JOHNSON'S HOUNDSTOOTH COAT AND RED BALLET FLATS OUTFIT
Style Notes: Subtly nodding to the pop of red in the check of her coat, Johnson's red ballet-flat pairing harmonised her outfit whilst picking up on one of the biggest colour trends of the season. Red ballet flats have practically become a 2024 styling essential at this point.
SHOP THE LOOK:
Style with colourful flats or dress up with heeled mules.
Red Mary Janes are an easy way to add some interest to a casual look.
4. VICTORIA BECKHAM'S WHITE DRESS AND RED HEELS OUTFIT
Style Notes: Victoria Beckham's breezy white dress and red heels combination highlights a colour combination that will be everywhere this spring/summer. Grounding the light and airy shade, the candy-red shoes steer the direction of the dress, imparting a playful element that will ease you into the spirit of spring.
