Jennifer Aniston [1] seems to maintain a shoe mantra: easy-peasy please, heel optional. For red carpet events [2] or fancy celebrations, you can find her in simple stiletto sandals [3], but when she's on the street [4], she's either in flats or something that will give her support, like an espadrille [5] or thick bootie. In 2018 alone, she gave us several peeks at her go-to silhouettes, and they pretty much make up what should be on a woman's ideal shoe rack. Ahead, check out her year in footwear, and get on her level when you shop.
