The Very Specific Flat-Shoe Trend Celebs Are Obsessed With Right Now

by Erin Fitzpatrick

I certainly like to ogle at celebrities' glittering gowns and heels at red carpet events, but those outfits don't exactly inspire my personal wardrobe. Who has occasion to wear a beaded floor-length dress, anyway? That's why I love seeing how celebs dress for more casual occasions and identifying popular themes.

Case in point: Lily James, Jodie Comer, Kate Middleton, and Anna Wintour have all been spotted in one specific shoe trend: flat espadrilles. James styled them with army-green trousers, while Comer went with a super-casual denim outfit. Meanwhile, Wintour and Middleton both polished up the laid-back shoes with pretty printed dresses. Scroll down to see how celebrities are wearing flat espadrilles, and shop my favorite pairs.
