The New It Shoe Trend to Wear With Denim Shorts and Jeans Is So Pretty
Emma Roberts is a shoe muse if we ever saw one. Time and time again, we report on what shoes she's wearing (this was the most recent example) because she always nails it. Thanks to her shoe savvy, you can always count on her to wear (and set) the latest shoe trends, and the ones she just wore with denim shorts nailed it yet again: Mary Janes.
Sure, in the past Mary Janes have been regarded as "frumpy," but with brands like Chanel, Gucci, and Dior endorsing them, they're once again a thing, and the latest crop is decidedly pretty. Since they now come with details like crystal embellishment, jacquard fabric, and eye-catching metallics, Mary Janes are undoubtedly the new It shoe to wear with denim. To further prove our point, below you'll see the Instagram proof that our NYC editors Nicole and Lauren recently showed up in Mary Janes, jeans, and socks on the same day (unplanned).
Into it? Keep scrolling to shop the prettiest new shoe trend to wear with your denim shorts and jeans this season.
