Emma Watson Paired Her Fancy Dress With the Most Unexpected Shoes

Emma Watson always looks sophisticated for red carpet events, but her outfits are never loud. However, they're polished and well-crafted (she even chose a rewearable Met Gala ensemble made from plastic bottles). Emma inspires us to shop for staples — pieces we'll come back to for their versatility — and she just impressed us yet again.

Emma's stylist, Sarah Slutsky, shared a behind-the-scenes photo featuring the star in a jacquard J. Mendel dress. While its powder-blue shade was lovely and the shoulder detail striking, we had eyes on Emma's Walter Steiger oxfords. The patent leather makes them just fancy enough for a special occasion, but their flat soles keep things functional.

Emma didn't appear too casual. She was just maintaining her signature style. Read on for another glimpse, and check out her Anita Ko jewels, then shop the need-now shoes that just soared to the top of our must-have list.
