Natalie Portman, currently on the press tour for her new Apple TV+ series “Lady in the Lake,” made an appearance at “The View” in New York City on Monday. The actress wore an effortlessly sophisticated ensemble, with her footwear playing a key role in her look.
Portman chose a pair of black patent leather heels featuring a distinctive metal plate detail at the toe. These heels are known for their glossy finish and sleek silhouette, which have made them a staple in fashion. The reflective surface of patent leather catches the light, adding a distinctive touch to any outfit.
The metal plate at the toe adds a modern twist to the classic patent leather design. This detail not only enhances the shoes’ visual appeal but also aligns with current fashion trends that favor bold, statement-making accessories. The metal accent provides a touch of edginess while maintaining the heels’ overall elegance.

Patent leather has maintained its popularity over the decades, and the inclusion of metal details adds a contemporary touch. With their diversity in silhouettes and colorways celebrities from Nicky Hilton to Helen Mirren often opt for patent leather heels.
This isn’t the first time Portman has opted for reflective footwear on her press tour. Earlier in the week, the actress was spotted in metallic strappy heels at the SAG-AFTRA Foundation Robin Williams Center.
