Jennifer Lawrence certainly has a thing for controversial footwear.
Remember when she walked around NYC in a pair of $820 slipper flats that did absolutely nothing to protect her toes from the harsh pavement below? Well, it looks like she’s opted for a much cheaper, more practical on-the-go shoe for her normcore walkabouts.
On June 2, the 32-year-old Hunger Games star was seen crossing the road in the West Village wearing what appears to be a pair of Adidas Adilette Comfort Slides, which currently retail for $35. However, she made sure there was still something for us to talk about by pairing the sandals with their sworn enemy, a pair of black socks. Of course, what’s typically regarded as a stereotypical tourist faux pas still looks cool on J.Law.
The rest of her look aced athleisure 101, with Lawrence elevating her simple black leggings and T-shirt with a sleek black baseball cap and semi-chunky gold chain. She forewent a purse in favor of holding her phone in one hand and a paper water carton in the other because she’s clearly a sustainable woman on the go.
This outing comes less than a month after Jennifer Lawrence chose comfort over dress code at the Cannes Film Festival. On May 21, the Oscar-winning actor hit the Croisette in a crimson Christian Dior couture gown with a ruffled bust and corseted bustier, an elegant shawl draped across her arms. She paired the look with a statement diamond choker and an equally elegant…pair of basic black flip-flops.
Okay, so she changed into the sandals after walking most of the red carpet for the premiere of Anatomy of a Fall in stunning red heels, but this picture is still a mood:
