Rita Ora layered bold on bold when she stepped out for a night on the town.

Revealing a fresh blue pedicure, Ora decided on a set of trending square-toe sandals complete with strappy front design and a securing cross-foot strap. The all-white pair came set atop a lifted wedge heel for a refreshing twist on a sandal.
Square-toe footwear returned to the celebrity scene in 2019 and has continued into this year as one of spring and summer’s biggest trends. Be it classic, a flat slide or a towering stiletto heel, the minimalistic silhouette falls in line with a ’90s-inspired revitalization of fashion, as seen with thong-toe shoe styles as well as pops of neon color across apparel and footwear.
For those who appreciate the appeal of Ora’s pair, Rejina Pyo offers a similar style on-sale now for $281, discounted from $510, at FWRD.com.
Earlier this week, Ora broke out another retro-inspired look in an asymmetric cut-out top with a zip-up hoodie and low-rise sweats; the 2000s-style accents continue with her choker and layered chain necklaces.
The finishing touch of the vintage-inspired ensemble came with Ora’s choice of Nike footwear. The songstress’ Nike Shox TL sneakers are a re-envisioned take on the silhouette that first dropped in 2003. A men’s iteration of the pair retails for $170 at Nike.com whereas the women’s version of the shoes can only be found on the resale market for now; StockX has a selection of sizes that range from $134 to $199.
