Selena Gomez mastered at-home dressing with a minimalist summer shoe.
On Sunday, Gomez posed on Instagram Stories in a set of beige thong-strapped sandals. The “Only Murders in the Building” star’s style featured smooth leather uppers with thin, faintly squared soles, topped by horizontal matching straps. A set of vertical toe-dividing straps completed the pair, creating a subtly geometric appearance.
Gomez opted to pair her subtle sandals with a set of blue denim jeans, while the rest of her outfit remained hidden beneath a large green and black-striped blanket. Though cozily wrapped for the occasion, the “Wizards of Waverly Place” actress‘ footwear was particularly on-trend from its “thong”-strapped silhouette and ease when slipping on and off — which have both been key features across the rise of slide-style sandals this summer. Pairs in smooth, neutral-toned leather and suede have proven the most popular and versatile, seen across new collections from brands including Khaite, Dear Frances and Tory Burch.
However, Gomez did slip on a new outfit later in the day, also captured on Instagram Stories: Versace‘s $2,050 La Vacanza denim minidress. Hailing from the Italian brand’s collaboration with Dua Lipa, the strapless style featured allover stenciled “Versace” lettering accented by silver side zippers and a buttoned bodice. Gomez, snapping a mirror selfie in the piece for the occasion, simply wore it with tubular gold hoop earrings to allow the casual textures to take center stage.

When it comes to Gomez’s shoe style, the star often wears staple pairs on and off the red carpet. The singer regularly dons metallic sandals and neutral pointed-toe pumps for events by top brands, including Gianvito Rossi, Prada and Christian Louboutin. When off-duty, her outfits incorporate casual styles like Puma sneakers, Charles & Keith loafers and Ugg slippers. Gomez has also furthered her presence in the fashion industry as a campaign star and brand ambassador for Coach, Puma and Louis Vuitton over the years.
