Kelly Rutherford Sparkles in Nina Lilou’s Bejeweled Heels in Monte Carlo

Kelly Rutherford took on France with a burst of sparkle, thanks to a glitzy pair of high heels.

While in Monaco, Rutherford visited Vera Facchetti’s pop-up display — which featured designer Nina Lilou’s newest collection — at the Fairmont Hotel Monte Carlo. For the occasion, the “Gossip Girl” star — as seen on Instagram — played with a dog while slipping on Lilou’s Avril pumps. The pointed-toe style featured metallic silver uppers with shiny ankle straps, as well as thin stiletto heels totaling 4.13 inches in height.

Rutherford’s Lilou pumps featured a burst of glamour from their toes, however, which were covered in ombré silver and pink crystals. The sparkling 380,000 Euro (approximately $403 USD) pair added a dash of sparkle to the brand’s shoe lineup in the hotel, which included a lineup of pumps with uppers in hues of black, nude and metallic red.

Rutherford’s high heels added a glitzy flair to her otherwise minimalist outfit while in Monte Carlo: a classic white T-shirt and blue jeans, paired with a dark beige leather Hermès watch.

The moment marked the actress’ latest appearance in statement heels, following her outings at Paris Fashion Week events for brands including Lancome, Kilian Paris and L’Oreal in September. At Lancome’s collaboration launch party with the Louvre, Rutherford soared in shimmering rosy gold platform sandals — which were paired with a draped white dress and asymmetric gold earrings for a breezy statement.

Rutherford’s shoe style is subtle and minimalist. On the red carpet, the “Melrose Place” actress often wears neutral and metallic sandals, boots and pumps from luxury brands including Christian Louboutin and Sania d’Mina. For more casual occasions, Rutherford can be seen in flat sandals and slides from Hermès and Birkenstock.
