When Cameron Diaz [1] joined Jimmy Fallon [2] to promote her new book Wednesday night, we were momentarily distracted by her great outfit. The actress-turned-author had pulled off a styling trick so simple [3], you'll wonder why you're not using it more often. Cameron elected to wear a sleek black suit, complete with a black top underneath, then brightened up the whole thing with one bold pair of heels. Watching her sit there with Jimmy, crossing her legs and kicking her feet, those shoes steal the spotlight, giving the whole outfit a cool twist we weren't expecting from the waist up.
The takeaway? This just might be the best styling hack to employ on days when you just can't think up a killer outfit combo — why not let the shoes do the talking?
