Kaia Gerber Wore the Shoe Color That’s Chicer Than Black

Must Read


All throughout my elementary school days, I wore a uniform, and part of that uniform stated that I could only wear shoes in one of three colors: black, brown, and navy. As the fashion contrarian I am (and always have been), I chose the latter, a choice that put me at odds with basically everyone at my school. It didn’t matter, though. I loved my navy-blue ballet flats and wore them even when I wasn’t in class. When elementary school ended, however, my navy flats didn’t join me. In fact, I never really thought to wear the color in footwear form again, and black, brown, and burgundy shoes all took precedence. That was until recently when a few styles began popping up in the elegant shade, helping me remember why I favored it way back when.
