Kaia Gerber — known for her cool pilates attire and signature cozy footwear pairings — embraced the monochrome look for her workout class in West Hollywood, Calif.
On Friday, the model wore a black mock-neck sweater with long sleeves and ribbed detailing along the neckline and cuffs. She styled it with a pair of coordinating black leggings. To accessorize the single-color ensemble, Gerber selected her go-to Celine Triomphe Ava Bag in a tan colorway with a Jules Kaye vegan leather key chain in a coordinating hue. The 19-year-old also chose a white face mask and crew-length black socks.
For footwear, Gerber completed the look with the perfect transitional version of a controversial sandal trend: a pair of the Birkenstock Arizona Shearling Suede Sandals in the black colorway. These shoes feature suede uppers with a two-strap design and buckled detail, an open toe and shearling-lined anatomically correct cork footbeds. They retail for $150 and are available for purchase on DSW.com.

With this sighting, the model confirms her affinity for this “ugly” sandal style and this pair has been a fixture in her pilates-ready wardrobe. On March 13, Gerber paired these same slides with a bright blue hoodie with an oversized fit and yellow lettering across the front and a similar pair of black leggings.

When she isn’t wearing her Birkenstocks, Gerber is frequently spotted in her beloved Ugg Classic Ultra Mini 2 boots in the chestnut colorway. On Jan. 28, the runway model paired them with a monochrome grey outfit, including a fleece jacket from Vuori and coordinating leggings from Gymshark. Hailey Baldwin and Kendall Jenner also have gravitated toward these shearling-lined boots.
Like Gerber, Jenner can’t stop styling the “ugly” sandal trend and counts her favorite Yeezy slides in the bone colorway as her everyday casual shoes.
