Jennifer Lawrence Wore the Easy Flat-Shoe Trend People Are Trading Loafers For
If you ever want an idea of what flat-shoe trends are cool at any given moment, look at some recent photos of Jennifer Lawrence walking through the streets of NYC. Lawrence has become the queen of trendy flat shoes, and she just signaled that she's on to the next. While out and about in New York earlier this week, Lawrence wore a casual summer outfit consisting of a white T-shirt and black miniskirt. She paired it with what's shaping up to be the next big flat-shoe trend: moccasins, the cousin to driving loafers and boat shoes.
Moccasins were created by the Native American community and date back to the 1800s, so they're hardly new. Designer brands such as The Row (the designer of Lawrence's pair), Miu Miu, and Prada have reinvigorated the trend for 2024. If you've grown bored of loafers and want a fresher but similar alternative, I strongly advise adding a pair of moccasins to your wardrobe The shoe style has evolved over the years and comes back around occasionally. Like loafers, they're year-round shoes, but they feel especially right in the summer.
In case you need any further convincing, scroll to see Lawrence wearing the moccasin trend and shop a few of the internet's best pairs for yourself.
