Reflection is the theme for spring 2023. Yes, I mean actual reflections about what you want to accomplish in life (those are the thoughts in my head at the moment), but I’m also referring to reflective fashion that’s all about shiny, bright, and luxe-looking things.

It’s no wonder that the metallic shoe trend has quite literally skyrocketed to a level of fame so big, it’s almost impossible to go a day without hearing people talk about it or seeing people wear it. In this case, Chrissy Teigen most-recently sported this major spring 2023 footwear moment — and she went with a very sensible iteration, too, even though some people might debate that this isn’t the most practical shoe style out there. I beg to differ.

Teigen took to Instagram to share the cutest photos of her family on vacation in Italy wearing outfits that earned an easy five-stars from me. So chic! So stylish! So spring-perfect! For one look, she opted for a floral-print skirt, lacy, white cami, oversized mint-green blazer, and those metallic flats, proving that reflective, silver shoes are absolutely in. TBH, I was a bit hesitant to slip into the style, but after seeing how well they worked with Teigen’s outfit, I’m inclined to add a few into my rotation. 

Teigen isn’t the first celebrity to wear this trend, and she definitely won’t be the last. Katie Holmes and Anne Hathaway have been seen in silver-sheen shoes that might appear blinding at first, but when you really look long and hard, you’ll realize metallic should actually be classified as a neutral. Sure, these shoes are bold (they wouldn't be this eye-catching otherwise), but they can easily pair with anything you already have in your closet, be it a floral-print skirt à la Teigen, jeans, trousers, or shorts. Metallic shoes are versatile but with a bit of pizzazz, and that’s why — at least in my opinion — they’re going to be the biggest trend of spring 2023.
