Jessica Alba Just Wore the Controversial Wedge-Sneaker Trend—Thoughts?

I know sneaker fans had some opinions on Reese Witherspoon's TikTok-viral shoes this week, and now I have another celebrity spotting that might generate some chatter. Photographed on a shopping trip at a mall in Los Angeles, Jessica Alba brought back the shoe trend I haven't seen in a while: wedge sneakers.
Alba styled her Puma Cali Wedge Sneakers ($90) with a simple beige sweater and white jeans along with a touch of luxury in the form of a Celine Small 16 Bag ($3850). I think Alba pulled off the controversial trend perfectly by choosing sneakers with a subtler wedge than the shoe styles we saw back in the early 2000s. Scroll down to see Jessica Alba's new outfit, and shop her sneakers.
