Jenna Ortega Swaps Trademark Black Heels for 2024’s Glossiest Flat Shoes

Jenna Ortega has emerged as a fresh force in the fashion scene, quickly becoming a go-to source for styling inspiration. Known for her preference for classic wardrobe staples with a preppy twist, her style is timeless, wearable, and always chic.

When Ortega made an appearance at the Venice Film Festival, it naturally piqued my interest. In sunny Italy, she showcased an outfit that perfectly captured some of autumn’s key trends. Sporting a boxy blazer with a bold checked pattern and a pleated beige mini skirt, Ortega’s look was characteristically stylish. However, it was her chic choice of footwear that truly stood out.

Ortega donned burgundy chunky loafers, subtly integrating one of autumn’s top colour trends into her outfit. This understated yet fashion-forward choice screamed, “I’m in the know.”

Rich and opulent, this autumn colour trend is dark enough to serve as a neutral yet bold enough to capture attention. As a striking jewel tone, burgundy exudes an expensive look and pairs well with other jewel tones like emerald and sapphire. It also matches beautifully with neutral shades such as brown, black, and beige.

While burgundy accessories are currently in vogue, it’s the trend of burgundy loafers that fashion enthusiasts are particularly excited about this autumn. These loafers add dimension and interest to any smart ensemble without overwhelming the look. They’re an elegant, thoughtful addition to an autumn wardrobe.
