Bella Hadid Just Wore the Elegant Heel Trend French Women Are Favoring Over Sandals

French fashion influencers have established themselves as some of the most elegant dressers in the world. It's no surprise that even Bella Hadid has been influenced by them (or is at least on the same page as them). Over the weekend, Hadid was spotted in Hollywood wearing the shoe trend every French fashion girl has been sporting on Instagram: slingback kitten heels. While everyone else is still wearing kitten-heel thong sandals, she took the more sophisticated shoe route. Her butter-yellow, Y2K-inspired dress was instantly elevated by her slingback heels in the same shade.
If you've ever wanted to dress like a French woman, the best item to add to any outfit, whether it's a trendy Y2K look or a more modern one, is a pair of slingback heels—trust me. Sandals are great and they serve their purpose, but a pair of slingbacks is what you need to elevate an outfit. Hadid's choice to pair her dress with the elegant shoe trend proves that looking to French style will provide the answers to your fashion dilemmas when you're having a hard time dressing up an outfit.
