Yara Shahidi [1] has sent a subtle reminder to us all about the things that are important in life right ahead of the new year — flats [2]! The Grown-ish actress [3], activist, and style star, who works with Jason Bolden [4] on her more glamorous red carpet looks [5], thrives in a moment where she can show off her relaxed fashion sense to fans and followers on Instagram.
After resetting on the beach in a crochet knit two-piece [6] then giving off sporty vibes [7] in Chloe x Halle's VS Pink apparel [8], Yara shared a few laid-back photos of herself lounging in Lunya sleepwear and a pair of Everlane's Italian Leather Day Glove Flats, which retail for $115 and come in a total of seven natural colorways. The "buttery soft" upper is supposed to mold to the shape of your foot, which sounds pretty darn great to us. The Everlane team confirmed they sent them over to her, and clearly, she approves.
"Me at ease •swipe for my athletic prowess• 🥋," Yara captioned her photo series on Instagram. Now, just in case you prefer a slightly different silhouette — say, one that's square-toed instead of rounded — we gathered some inspired styles from luxury fashion houses (think: The Row and Jil Sander) and affordable labels alike. Click through to make walking look easy and undeniably stylish, just like Yara.
