They’re a spring dream.
On Thursday, Reese Witherspoon celebrated Tiffany & Co.’s Blue Book 2024 collection in Los Angeles. With her daughter by her side, Witherspoon looked chic and sophisticated—two words that almost always go in tandem with the actress’ style.
The Legally Blonde star wore head-to-toe black donning a split sheath dress adorned with a velvet bow and rhinestone-covered detail. Brilliant jewelry sparkled underneath the light, while open-toed strappy pumps added a sexy finishing touch.

The squint-to-see footwear trend isn’t anything new, with celebrities like Bella Hadid, Selena Gomez, and Kim Kardashian all styling similar versions in the past. Marilyn Monroe even helped spearhead the risqué ankle-baring trend in the ‘50s, while the ‘90s and ‘00s brought the look back to center stage. So, it’s safe to say that the minimalist heel isn’t going anywhere any time soon—and for good reason.
The micro-strap heels seamlessly integrate into spring and summer wardrobes, taking the guesswork out of getting ready on warm days. Wear your own version with wide-leg and skinny jeans to elongate the frame, or opt for shorts and mini skirts for a sexier appeal. The sandals look just as good with satin joggers and can never be ill paired with a classic maxi dress. TL;DR? Witherspoon-inspired pumps elevate just about any outfit.
I own a tulle-adorned pair from Bella Belle and rely on them for effortless dressing, though I have my eye on an even more versatile style from Vince Camuto. Open Edit also offers a flared-heel version that’s great for those that want to separate themselves from the pack. Meanwhile, Dream Pairs decided to bring the house down with a more affordable $30 lookalike.
Witherspoon’s tiny-strap sandals are a force to be reckoned with, so I recommend snagging a similar style from brands like Marc Fisher LTD, Schutz, and J.Crew. I even included a few extra strappy picks for the more adventurous types.
