Kylie Jenner isn't the first celeb you think of when you hear "socks and sandals," but the reality star and Kylie Cosmetics founder just put her spin on the enduring trend with a surprising style choice.
Jenner, who has been having fun trying new things with her style throughout 2023, including playing with the tomato girl aesthetic on a recent Eurotrip, was spotted in a surprising twist on socks and sandals for a day of meetings in Los Angeles. During her outing, Jenner wore a ruched naked dress from Atlein's fall/winter 2023 collection. Instead of going bare-legged or wearing it with over-the-knee boots like you think she would, she instead styled it similarly to how it was worn on the runway, with a pair of 50 Denier Total Comfort Soft Tights in white from the Italian brand Calzedonia, which you can snag for $15.
Not exactly what you'd expect from the Kylie Jenner, right? Sure, the ruched, bodycon naked dress on top is 100% Kylie vibes, but the tights? Have we ever seen her in tights — not sheer stockings — before?
Jenner then took the look one step further by pairing the balletcore tights with monochromatic accessories, including a pair of white kitten heel strappy sandals and a matching teeny tiny white bag. She also tossed a giant black Bottega Veneta tote over one shoulder for her meeting supplies.
Beauty-wise, the Kylie Cosmetics founder pulled her hair back with a classic black claw clip and added a pair of sunglasses to finish off the surprising style. It's very out of the box for Jenner, but honestly? It's fun to see her try something new, and the sleeker take on socks and sandals is the kind of surprise that the fashion icon does so well. What's next for Jenner? Birkenstocks? OK, that may be a stretch. Unless…
