I'm Calling It: These Celeb-Backed Shoe Styles Are Going to Be Everywhere This Spring


If you’re unsure which designer shoe styles to wear and shop for this spring, look no further than one of the best sources of inspiration: celebrities—specifically, their street style from last spring and even the year before. Celebrity outfits often blend high fashion with real-world wearability, and when it comes to shoes, they know exactly what works and what lasts. The key here is to focus on anti-trend silhouettes—those timeless, effortless styles that transcend fleeting fashion cycles and remain stylish year after year.

Taking my own advice, I recently reviewed some of the chicest celebrity street style moments from spring 2024. Quickly, I noticed how many celebrities were sporting similar classic silhouettes that will undoubtedly be just as elegant this spring. For example, pointed-toe slingbacks were everywhere, and they’re a style you can pair with dresses or jeans. Block-heel pumps also made a strong appearance, offering both elegance and comfort. Then, of course, there were chunky white sneakers, cool enough to be taken from your workout to brunch. And let’s not overlook loafers with gold hardware, a luxe yet understated style that’s been dominating the scene for quite some time now.
