To promote the new remix of her song “34 + 35” with Doja Cat and Megan Thee Stallion, the 27-year-old singer herself took to Instagram in a bold set. The all-black look in layers a body with a round neckline over fishnet stockings with high heels to match; placed on top of stilettos measuring about 10 centimeters in height, the elegant pumps came with a patent top and pointed front.
As for the leggings, fishnet stockings are a surefire way to add a touch of elegance and air to a set; the socks are favorites of Grande herself, as well as Miley Cyrus, Lady Gaga, Gwen Stefani and Cardi B, among other stars.
When she is not in high heels and dressed in bad clothes, the “Positions” singer can often be found in a mix of trendy styles. In December, for example, she debuted her style for the day outside of work hours in a relaxed white blouse and dark jeans covered in a light brown overcoat.
His shoes, however, are where the “excuse me, I love you” star really embodied his bold taste. The successful singer wore a pair of classic white socks with thick sandals, courtesy of Balenciaga. The double-strap sandal features woven leather and a rubber upper fastened with adjustable velcro straps.
Shoe fans come and go on their ideas about socks and sandals. While the combination is considered disharmonious by some, others prefer stratification as it allows you to use your favorite open designs all year round. Brands like Fendi, Anna Sui, Simone Rocha and others have included socks and sandals together in their recent shows – and you can even find Justin Bieber, Halle Berry, Kendall Jenner and Kanye West swinging their own approaches in the disputed shoe combo.
Grande’s part in particular incorporated another successful trend for 2020: “ugly” sandals. Like clogs and sneakers, the “ugly” sandals have experienced a revitalization among the growing celebrity style trends and favorite shoes this year; the new appreciation for comfortable sandal styles comes with a greater desire for ease of use and stability in the fashion world amid today’s environment. You can buy the pair from the singer’s special designer “Needy” for $ 725 at Net-a-Porter.
As for Grande herself, the Grammy-winning artist was never one to shy away from a daring moment with shoes. In fact, the 5-foot, 3-inch singer most often opts for higher heels and lift platforms on everything from her appearance on stage to her out-of-service style. His previous exalted styles came from Club Exx, Demonia, Giuseppe Zanotti, Unravel and other major brands.
When she’s not wearing boots or heels, the musician “7 Rings” keeps things casual in Nike Air Force 1 kicks, Crocs clogs and rugged Naked Wolfe sneakers, among other styles. Her fashion career goes beyond just a stylish closet, however. She was named the face of Givenchy’s 19 fall campaign and previously partnered with Reebok to help debut a new silhouette for the fall of 18.
