When it comes to new season styling, knowing which shoes go best with jeans is always a sticking point. As well as having myriad denim options to choose from – a lot of which play with proportion – there’s the question of which flat shoes can actually pair well with the season’s trending barrel and wide-leg styles.

Enter: Gigi Hadid with an alternative take on late-spring shoes. The A-list model stepped out in New York teaming wide-leg jeans with a pair of colour-pop Miu Miu red leather loafers. The flash of colour got us thinking: why are we still in the rut of brown and black?

The final flourishes? Hadid finished the look with some apt choices; a pair of tortoiseshell aviator sunglasses, a trench coat with a leather collar, a pair of beaded drop earrings and a claw hair clip: quirky but cool.

It’s not the only colourful shoe reference that’s caught our eye of late. Alongside reviving the pashmina, Mary Kate Olsen is known to lean into an unexpected colour choice in her shoes, teaming turn-up jeans with metallic gold loafers from The Row.

Loafers not for you? We’ve long had a grá for a pair of red satin pumps and these backless mules are just the right level of ritzy to offset everyday denim.
