Naomi Watts Wore the Comfy Cool-Girl Shoes Practically Every Celebrity Owns

Best Black Friday Shoe Sales You Need to Know.

I own a lot of shoes. More specifically, I own a lot of sneakers, ballet flats, and kitten heel slingbacks (specific, I know). If you walk into my apartment, you’ll be able to recognize this pretty quickly—small NYC apartment plus little closet space equals shoes as artwork on full display! But, one style that I don’t really own (though am now considering seeing Alaia SHOES BOOTS WEELINGTONS ANKLE BOOT WOMEN who’ve worn it in recent weeks) is a pair of comfy loafers

Naomi Watts was the latest A-lister to step out in the low-key cool comfort shoe while out in the Big Apple. For the outing, the actress wore an outfit that struck the perfect balance between comfort and elegance; up top, she wore a billowy silk turtleneck blouse, which she styled with a bold-shouldered, structured, mid-length blazer coat that’s an ideal in-between top layer. She also wore cropped leather pants and, last but certainly not least, Trainers CHAMPION Low Cut Shoe Philly B Ps S31932-S20-YS002 Bzy with cool hardware detailing.

Watts is just the latest—her pair is light brown with a thin, wooden sole, square-toe front, and horsebit hardware that gives them Chaussure De Trail Running Terrex Agravic Gore-tex

And as any New Yorker in the springtime knows, the spring is when you easily hit 10,000-plus steps in a day. 

Watts is the latest celeb to wear loafers, but she’s not the first nor the last. Nicole Kidman, Katie Holmes, Hailey Bieber, and Gigi Hadid are just a few of the stylish Hollywood stars who’ve stepped out in the sensible shoe—and honestly, all this is reason enough to try them out. So, check out the loafers I’m eyeing, starting at $38.
