JLo Just Wore the Neutral Heel Colour Trend I’m Recommending Over Black

My love of neutrals isn’t remotely weather-dependent—you’re just as likely to find me in head-to-toe black in the middle of winter as you are on the brightest day. But when summer does come around, I sometimes feel inclined to soften my styling ever so slightly. That’s when I start reaching for the gentler, and arguably more interesting, neutrals in my wardrobe—chief among them, rich brown tones.

Less severe than glossy black but every bit as elegant, brown has become my neutral for the warmer months. And this week, I found a fellow fan in Jennifer Lopez, who swapped classic black heels for a sleek cognac-brown pair.

Finished with a glossy shine that felt just as polished as black leather, the shoes carried all the sophistication of a traditional black heel, but with a softer, more directional edge. Where black might have felt a little stark against her white and beige ensemble, the deep brown shade added warmth and depth without disrupting the light, summery palette.
