Eva Longoria Upgrades Classics in Black Mesh Pumps at ‘Flamin’ Hot’ Q&A at Savannah Film Festival

Eva Longoria attended a Q&A and Discovery Director Award Presentation for her film “Flamin’ Hot” during the 26th SCAD Savannah Film Festival at SCAD Museum of Art Theater held on Tuesday in Savannah, Ga.

Sporting a spin on the classics, the “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” star stepped into a pair of black mesh heels. The footwear was crafted of shiny see-through mesh uppers that transitioned into knife-like triangular pointed toes and walkable arches. The usage of mesh offered the classic silhouette an edgy touch.

Thin and sturdy 3 to 4 stiletto heels rounded out the neutral but unique set, offering the director a boost. Black pumps, mesh or otherwise, are a staple shoe in many celebrities’ wardrobes, Longoria’s included. The versatile style instantly offers any ensemble a touch of glamor with little to no effort.
