Awkwafina was spotted having herself a night out on July 18 in Los Angeles.

Joined by a few friends, the comedian laced up a pair of black Prada Monolith oxfords. The designer style featured brushed leather uppers, rugged non-slip platform soles, coordinating black lace-up closures and subtle Prada logo detailing on the tongues.

The silhouette imparted a grungy effect, while the platform soles lifted the “Kung Fu Panda 4” star to new heights. Unlike loafers, oxfords are exceedingly dressy, elevating any look with a classy touch. Awkwafina’s Prada pair offered a spin on the classic Oxford silhouette, imbuing the style with effortless edge and youth.

Prada features a variety of Monolith styles, from loafers and Chelsea boots to lace-up oxfords and combat-style boots fitted with zip-up compartments. The line is a favorite of many celebrities and K-Pop idols alike, including Chrissy Teigen, NCT, Nina Dobrev, Hunter Schafer, Lori Harvey and Keith Urban, among others. Usually, these Monolith styles feature brushed leather uppers in neutral tones with the brand’s logo throughout.

Matching the edgy look of her footwear, Awkwafina sported an oversized glossy black leather bomber jacket worn over a contrasting dressy blue and white drop-waist dress with a collared neckline and vertical and horizontal striping. Carried on her arm, the rapper toted a black quilted shoulder bag fitted with a silver chain strap and zipper closures.

Awkwafina often varies her footwear styles, ranging from sharp pumps to sleek sneakers. The “Crazy Rich Asians” actress has been seen on the red carpet in a variety of colorful and neutral pointed-toe pumps and platform sandals — which she also re-wears — from luxury brands like Malone Souliers, Versace and Larroudé. She’s also been spotted in affordable styles by Aldo. Off-duty, her footwear is decidedly more casual, including Stella McCartney platform brogues, Reebok and Converse sneakers.
