Serena Williams embraced the trend of high-low dressing while in New York City on Thursday, and her silver pumps were the clinching element, transforming her casual gray ensemble.
The tennis champion’s heels stood out as the focal point of her ensemble, changing the aura of her otherwise easygoing look. Her shoes married a classic dress shoe silhouette with a persistent trend in footwear — the use of metallics.
