J.Law and Dakota Both Know This Shoe Makes Tailored Trousers Look Instantly Cooler

I'll always take my styling cues from Dakota Johnson and Jennifer Lawrence, so when the two stepped out together wearing the same trouser trend with the coolest flats this week, I had to take note. Discover how they elevated their simple trousers below.

Sure, tailored trousers and heels are a timeless pairing, but when I’m aiming for something a little more relaxed and, dare I say it, trendy, I’ll always reach for a flat. Comfortable and unfussy, flat shoes deliver an effortless quality that heels simply can’t replicate. And when styled with wide-leg trousers, they become the one shoe trend I know will look cool—every single time.

Proving my point, both Dakota Johnson and Jennifer Lawrence stepped out this week in tailored trousers, each opting for one of summer’s most impactful flat shoe trends. On an evening outing together, Johnson chose a light grey pair of wide-leg trousers and grounded her look with a glossy, square-toed loafer in black. With a similar throw-on ease, her trousers brought an easy elegance that was perfectly echoed by her chic choice of footwear.

Injecting colour and texture into her outfit, Johnson layered a warm brown blazer in a boxy cut over her ensemble, completing the look with The Row’s ‘90s leather tote and a long pendant necklace, the actor created a polished yet laid-back outfit that felt perfectly in sync with the relaxed energy of a summer evening.

Following a very similar styling formula for their shared evening out, Jennifer Lawrence opted for a pair of relaxed black tailored trousers, teaming them with sleek black, high-coverage leather flats. Her monochrome palette amplified the outfit’s sophistication, while a croc-print burgundy handbag added a subtle pop of colour and texture.
