Kaia Gerber Provides the Perfect Off-Duty Outfit Formula With Leggings, Socks & These Buzzy ‘Ugly’ Sandals
Kaia Gerber has added a cozy twist to the “ugly” sandal trend.
On Thursday, the 19-year-old model stepped out in Los Angeles, showcasing her off-duty style, wearing a teddy fleece jacket and classic blue leggings.
Gerber teamed the look with rounded sunglasses and a brown leather shoulder bag from Celine. The fashion star also wore a black face mask amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
As for footwear, Gerber opted for a pair of black two-strap sandals from Birkenstock. Called the Arizona Shearling, the sandals feature shearling lining blended with the brands signature suede leather. The style retails for $150 at Birkenstock.com. The ugly sandal became the “it” style of summer 2020. as shoppers began leaning on more comfortable attire staying in and working remotely due to the global health crisis. As a result, brands like Birkenstock, Teva and Crocs had a major moment and it has continued into the new year.
Gerber, however, gave the trend a winter upgrade by pairing the sandals with socks to keep warm.

The look has been big among celebrities and TikTok stars and is nearly sold out online. That day, Gerber teamed the footwear with white tube socks, black leggings from Alo Yoga and a gray sweatshirt.
Aside from Uggs and Birkenstocks, Gerber’s off-duty footwear collection also includes Converse sneakers and New Balances. In September, Gerber was seen in New York, wearing a polished Imaan x Frame leather blazer with biker shorts and chunky “dad shoes” from New Balance.
