Jenna Ortega Just Ditched Her Trademark Black Heels for Flats in 2024's Glossiest Colour
By Natalie Munro,

As a fresh force on the fashion scene, Jenna Ortega is one of my favourite sources of styling inspiration right now. Favouring wardrobe staples with a preppy twist, the actor's style is timeless, wearable and always chic. So naturally, when I caught wind of Ortega's arrival at Venice Film Festival, I was intrigued to see what she'd wear.
Stepping out in sunny Italy, the Beetlejuice Beetlejuice star styled an elevated outfit that captured some of autumn's most important trends. Wearing a boxy blazer complete with a bold checked print and a beige pleated miniskirt, Ortega's look was off to a typically stylish start, but it was her chic shoe choice that made me do a double take. Styling a pair of chunky loafers in a rich burgundy shade, the actor wove autumn's key colour trend into her outfit in a low-key way that says, "Yes, I'm in the know".

Rich, opulent and so easy to work into a capsule wardrobe, this autumnal shade is dark enough to act as black yet bold enough to catch your attention. A striking jewel tone, burgundy is inherently expensive-looking and pairs well with other luxe shades such as emerald and sapphire, yet looks equally elegant with neutrals such as brown, black and beige.
Whilst burgundy accessories are having a moment right now, it's the burgundy loafers trend that fashion people are really buying into for autumn 2024. A thoughtful addition to a smart ensemble, this elevated take on a classic shoe adds dimension and interest to a cold-weather outfit without dominating or overwhelming.
If, like me, you're inspired by Jenna Ortega's elevated taste, read on to shop her look and the autumn shoe trend she's backing right now.
