Anya Taylor-Joy has a knack for making the most basic outfits look impossibly cool, and her latest off-duty look just gave us major inspo for effortless summer styling. The actress was spotted in New York City with her husband, nearly flying under the radar in a casual jeans-and-T-shirt outfit that we’ll definitely be copying.
Opting for a super relaxed silhouette, she paired slouchy, wide-leg jeans with an oversized green graphic tee. Emblazoned with the word “lucky” in green glitter, the top teases Taylor-Joy’s new crime-thriller miniseries of the same name, which premiered last week on Apple TV. Her accessories—an Elsa Peretti Scorpion pendant and cuff from Tiffany & Co.—might also offer a subtle hint into her character, a con artist on the run.
But it’s her chic shoes that captured our attention. Taylor-Joy opted for an unexpected square-toed block heel that had us doing a double-take. Not quite a flat, not quite a kitten heel, this low-profile shoe trend adds an element of elegance to the relaxed look. It gives just enough lift to keep wide-leg hems from dragging while still being walkable and low-maintenance. Consider us officially conned into trying the trend.
