Emily Ratajkowski was spotted walking her dog Colombo in New York on Friday.

For her romp in the city, Ratajkowski wore a pair of black ballet-esque flats. The style featured a strappy crisscrossing construction, similar to the dancerly ballet flat silhouette, along with mesh and cloth uppers. Additionally, the style included contrasting white stitching and rubber soles that offered the model a sturdy and non-slip base. The silhouette of the runway regular’s shoes can be likened to a dance or tap shoe from the likes of Capezio or Bloch.

Ballet flats of all kinds are becoming exceedingly popular as of late. The style has enjoyed a renaissance, becoming the it-girl shoe in a flash for its diverse silhouette and immense comfort. The girly and playful style can be purchased from a wide range of brands including Prada, Circus NY, Coach, Miu Miu, Maison Margiela, Free People and Zara, just to name a few. Not just for dancers, ballet flats have received a major upgrade, coming in a myriad of colors, textural and prints.

Serving model-off-duty style, Ratajkowski wore a black tank top, accompanied by baggy denim shorts with frayed edges. Rounding out her look, the model wore large black sunglasses and silver hoops.
