Hailey Bieber Wore the Fall Accessory French Girls Use to Make Loafers Look Chic (and Not Boring)
It's no secret that I often turn to French style muses when I seek outfit inspiration. Their elevated yet effortless aesthetic captivates me, and I know I’m not the only one who feels this way. A perfect example is Hailey Bieber, who was recently spotted sporting a French-girl-favorite sock-and-shoe combo.
Leaving her Pilates class in Los Angeles this week, Bieber was seen in a polished ensemble featuring crisp white ankle socks paired with classic loafers. This look was perfectly balanced with a sporty yet stylish upper half, showcasing gray bike shorts and a matching cropped tank top. To add a touch of vintage flair, which she loves to do, Bieber layered on a green bomber jacket, which complemented her outfit beautifully.
On Hailey Bieber: Vintage '90s Polo Ralph Lauren bomber jacket; The Row Novus Leather Loafers ($1470); Set Active top and Bike Shorts ($60); Bottega Veneta Large Andiamo Bag ($8000)
Celebrities like Bieber, as well as chic Parisian people, rely on socks and loafers every fall to create the perfect transitional look. This pairing keeps their feet warm while allowing them to showcase some skin, especially when worn with a midi skirt or minidress. Additionally, it adds a preppy touch to any casual outfit, delivering the polished appearance that fashion people will be after in 2025, particularly following Saint Laurent's S/S 25 collection.
