Angelina Jolie Arrived in Paris Wearing France's Most Popular Flat Shoe Trend
Simple elegance is easy to recognize but can be hard to replicate. Often, a single piece makes the look; lately, in Paris, it's been the shoes.
Actress Angeline Jolie was recently spotted in the City of Lights wearing a combination of soft browns with smart, black pointed-toe flats. It's a style that has been around forever but has quietly taken over since Paris Fashion Week. They can be styled with everything from jeans to gowns, so they're truly one of those wardrobe staples that go with everything. Lastly, they'll withstand a lot, provided you're willing to spend more upfront on quality leather and craftsmanship.
Keep scrolling to shop 10 pairs of pointed-toe black flats, plus some outfit inspiration from Jolie and other fashionable women spotted on the streets of Paris. Dress the shoes up for the holiday season or keep them casual for commuting. The options are truly infinite.
