Alexa Chung Just Wore the World's Prettiest Heels With Skinny Jeans

Leave it to Alexa Chung to actually come up with a fresh way to style skinny jeans (it's not that easy these days). For a night out in London recently, Chung wore a look that's perfect for day or night, but it was her shoes that made it particularly night out–worthy. Chung wore skinny jeans and a gray hoodie with crystal-embellished patent leather pumps (which bore the Miu Miu logo) and a long faux-fur brown coat by It-girl favorite Staud.
As we pointed out recently with Jennifer Lopez, beautiful shoes (in her case, sneakers) can go a long way in making skinny jeans feel special. Given that it's such a trend right now, there are lots of shoes on the market that are dripping with crystals, and we highly suggest following Chung's lead and wearing them with skinny jeans (or just copying her entire perfect outfit). Keep scrolling to shop her look and more crystal-embellished shoes to wear with skinny jeans.
On Alexa Chung: Staud Marcel Coat ($550); Shrimps Antonia Bag ($550); Miu Miu Crystal-Embellished Patent-Leather Pumps ($475)
