Reese Witherspoon made a splash onstage as her beloved “Legally Blonde” character Elle Woods at Amazon’s debut upfront presentation on Tuesday. Appearing in costume, the actress’ pink look was complete with Christian Louboutin pumps.
The same day, Witherspoon hit the stage in sleek black pumps alongside her “You’re Cordially Invited” costar Will Ferrell. She donned another black stiletto style, strappy Jimmy Choo Minny sandals at the AFI Life Achievement Awards last month. A fan of slingback heels, she also wore red Aquazzura sandals at the Screen Actors Guild Awards in February.
Some of Witherspoon’s other go-to luxury footwear brands include Manolo Blahnik, Gianvito Rossi and Santoni. She’s also been known to wear styles from her own brand Draper James on occasion. When the “Big Little Lies” star isn’t sporting dressy shoes, you might spot her in sneakers from brands like Hoka One One, Veja, Tretorn and Autry.
