Mariah Carey is hunkering down for the winter, spotted in Aspen yesterday all cozied up in style.
The “It’s a Warp” songstress opted for her usual schtick, sporting a pair of lofty platform booties. Although they were hard to see beneath the hem of her skirt, the footwear pick appeared to feature taupe suede uppers accompanied by bulbous rounded toes and thick platform soles that elevated Carey’s look tenfold. 3 to 4-inch block heels rounded out the set, further giving the performer the appearance of length and height. It’s likely the boot sat at around ankle length.
Like many vertically challenged individuals, Carey often wears platform styles to offer her silhouette some dimension. Beyond the songwriter, top names like Ariana Grande, Florence Pugh, Salma Hayek, Sofia Vergara, Eva Longoria and Sabrina Carpenter all utilize this styling trick to impart a sky-high boost almost always. For those looking to channel their inner Carey, styles similar to her own can be shopped via brands like Gianvito Rossi, Stuart Weitzman, Jimmy Choo, Paris Texas and Khatie, among others.

Accompanying her suede-adorned booties, the “Emotions” singer donned a tan zip-up poncho from Louis Vuitton featuring the brand’s iconic LV Damier monogrammed print in rhinestones. Layered underneath, Carey wore a cream-colored knitted maxi dress featuring long sleeves. As for accessories, the record producer wore thick black sunglasses fixed with gold accents along with maximalist gold jewelry.
Carey’s penchant for glamour remains unmatched. The mom of two often opts for stiletto-heeled platform sandals and pointed-toe pumps on and off the red carpet from top brands, including Aquazzura, Sophia Webster, Christian Louboutin, and Jimmy Choo.
The musician’s footwear picks often include statement-making elements like metallic tones, crystals, and bright colors. Aside from her heels, Carey also favors cozy Ugg boots while off-duty. Carey also launched an extensive collection of footwear with HSN in 2010.
