Kiernan Shipka and Natalie Portman Are Both Wearing This Ageless Shoe Trend
The only thing we love more than spotting trends in the wild? When we catch two very different style stars showing off their interpretations. Case in point, the shoe trend that transcends outfits, events, and ages: the platform sneaker.
Recently, we saw Gen Z style star Kiernan Shipka wearing the trend while running errands in New York City. And soon after, we noticed Natalie Portman sporting platform sneakers while attending the Olympics in Paris. Although there is almost a 20-year age difference between the two actresses, it's obvious: If the shoe trend fits, wear it.
Keep scrolling to see how Portman and Shipka styled the casual footwear. Then shop platform sneakers to try out for yourself. Whether you're commuting into the city, catching a flight, or cheering in the stands, we're sure you'll find the platform sneaker that's a perfect fit for your 'fit.
