Angelina Jolie Can Show You 14 Timeless Shoes That Will Take You Through All Seasons
Throughout the years, Angelina Jolie has managed to balance both sides of her wardrobe with ease. As a humanitarian and US Special Envoy for the United Nations, Angelina needs sophisticated, modest staples she can wear to work. But as a Hollywood actress and director, Angelina turns up the glamour on the red carpet quite frequently. Then, of course, there are her errand-running street style outfits in between.
But while she might go from suit sets to travel pants and mystical gowns, Angelina's footwear is pretty standard. You might see her wear the same boots for shopping that she does while on the job, and her trusty pumps take her from business meetings to movie premieres. If you take a tip from Angelina's promising shoe lineup — she keeps the 14 designs ahead in rotation — you'll be set for life. Read on to shop her essentials.
A Black Knee-High Boot
Angelina made hers work with a knee-length pencil skirt, blazer, and leather bag.
Our Pick: Aldo Latessa Boots
A Patent Neutral Pump
Angelina uses these shoes to amp up a workwear outfit and add shine and polish to her most sophisticated basics.
Our Pick: Kate Spade Licorice Patent Pumps
A Suede Traveling Bootie
Angelina slips into these booties to elongate her legs when she's wearing a dark travel outfit at the airport.
Our Pick: Aquazzura Suede Quant Booties
A Smart, Functional Loafer
Angelina's are from Everlane, and they meshed perfectly with a pair of jeans and a sweater, plus the travel essentials: a luxe tote bag and shades.
Our Pick: Everlane The Modern Loafer
Everlane The Modern Loafer ($168)
Sturdy, Buckled Boots
Angelina made these work for a meeting with Greece's prime minister in Athens in 2016. Though they lent a casual touch to Angelina's elegant silhouette, you could wear the same style with a romantic velvet maxi or a fancy skirt. Of course, they help you achieve rocker edge when you style them with distressed jeans.
Our Pick: Missguided Black Ankle Boots
Taupe Peep-Toe Pumps
Angelina styled these with gray Michael Kors Collection pieces for a night out on the town in London in 2016. She also works her peep-toes with pooling trousers or a red carpet dress that can stand to be paired with something more chunky.
Our Pick: Jimmy Choo Luna Pump
Kitten Heels
Angelina usually opts for a lower heel when she's on the go. She wore this understated black pair with a classic midi dress and a Louis Vuitton duffle.
Our Pick: Louise et Cie Jacoba Pump
Black Power Pumps
You'll need these when you're in business mode and you want to command attention. They go with practically any suit, including the peplum-finished style Angelina wore for a visit to the US State Department in Washington DC in 2016.
Our Pick: Manolo Blahnik BB Pumps
Neutral Wedge Sandals
Angelina styled her pair with a simple cotton suit and a comfortable Everlane t-shirt while addressing the International Peace Support Training Centre in Nairobi in 2017.
Our Pick: Rag & Bone Tara Platforms
A Low, Skin-Matching Pump
You'll want to invest in a pair that matches as closely as possible to your skin tone (Christian Louboutin offers a wide range of shades), in order to elongate your legs when you're wearing ankle-baring dresses. Angelina's heels are by Ryan Roche, and she wore them here with a white midi dress at the Telluride Film Festival in 2017.
Our Pick: Zara High Heel Court Shoes
Satin Peep-Toe Heels
This should be one of your nicest, most elegant pairs of shoes. Angelina worked them with a Givenchy set while attending The Breadwinner premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival in 2017.
Our Pick: Manolo Blahnik Cassia Satin Sandals
Sky-High Patent Stilettos
These shoes are your confidence boosters. They don't just add inches, they make you feel fancy and take your outfit to instant glamour status. You'll need them for black tie weddings and major celebratory events. Angelina worked hers with this Ralph & Russo one-shoulder dress at the First They Killed My Father premiere during the Toronto International Film Festival in 2017.
Sparkly Shoes
Every girl needs a pair of princess heels, are we right? Victoria Beckham — another power woman with a sense of style — just revealed a line of glitter heels named after her daughter, and her color choice is purple! Angelina, however, wore her Christian Louboutin sparklers with a Dior gown at the NYC premiere of First They Killed My Father, and then later, after she'd walked the red carpet, with an Elisabetta Franchi coat.
Our Pick: Christian Louboutin Iriza Pump
Easy Walking Flats
Angelina wore a neutral scalloped pair with a loose black gown on a visit to a Syrian refugee camp in Jordan in 2016.
