This New Pretty Shoe Color Trend Is Going to Be as Popular Among Celebs as Red Shoes Were

Agree or disagree, I find that red shoes are quite classic. So in no way is this my PSA to stow away your red shoes, but the trend has been going strong for approximately two years now, and a new shoe color trend has officially entered the chat: pale-pink shoes. If you follow fashion (or at least read Who What Wear regularly), this should come as no surprise to you, as powder pink has been the subject of breathless coverage ever since it flooded the S/S 25 runways. I'm adding to that coverage because bona fide fashion-girl celebrity Elizabeth Olsen just wore a pair of pale-pink shoes to attend the Fendi show at Milan Fashion Week.
Olsen opted for a pair of wedge-heel pink satin mules, which she paired with a rust-brown jacket-and-skirt Fendi look. The unexpected color combination proved that pale-pink shoes are actually quite versatile and will make anything they're worn with look prettier, whether that's what you're going for or not. And Olsen isn't alone—fellow celebrities like Selena Gomez have also started dipping a toe into (no pun intended) the pale-pink shoe trend. Keep scrolling to see for yourself how pretty they are, and shop some of the best pairs on the market thus far.
