Cropped jeans are in vogue—this French summer footwear trend enhances their chic appeal.

      I’m all about jeans, and during the summer, my cropped styles see the most action. Currently making a comeback, their relaxed and slightly preppy look provides a lighter, more casual option compared to last season's narrow jeans, making them ideal for summer outfits. While I'm still adapting to the denim trend this season, Kate Moss's latest Paris-inspired outfit has reminded me of the shoe trend that enhances cropped jeans every time. Seen in dark black jeans rolled at the ankles, Moss paired her denim with one of the chicest French summer shoe trends: strappy heeled sandals. These barely-there sandals are much better for dealing with heatwaves than closed-toe options, offering the airy comfort that’s crucial during the hottest summer days. When matched with cropped jeans, they create an elegant summer look that you can rely on all season long.

      Moss styled her jeans-and-sandal combo with a lace-trimmed camisole and layered a short-sleeved satin jacket over it, achieving a polished yet effortless vibe. Although the French fashion crowd often pairs strappy sandals with flowing skirts and V-neck dresses, this jeans combination might be my favorite take on the trend. Always inspired by a Kate Moss outfit, I've curated a selection of the best cropped jeans and strappy heels to shop now.
