Amal Clooney's Date-Night Shoes Will Make You Look Twice

Due to her career as a high-powered attorney, Amal Clooney regularly serves up stellar office outfit inspiration, but her off-duty wardrobe is equally noteworthy, which her latest date-night look proves. Clooney stepped out with husband George over the weekend in New York in a bold yellow coat and boots. But if you simply glance at a photo of her look, you probably missed that she's wearing shoes at all. But not only is she wearing shoes, but she's wearing thigh-high tan suede Balmain boots. And given the slim fit and the flesh-toned color of said boots, you could almost mistake them for her bare legs. (Which is smart thinking on Clooney's part, given that it's been an unseasonably cold spring in NYC thus far.) Consider them naked shoes 2.0, if you will, and they are a chic way to transition from winter to spring.
Check out Clooney's version of lampshading below and shop thigh-high boots in case her bold shoe choice inspired you.
