Snakeskin heels are a great addition to any wardrobe, thanks to their versatility. They instantly add spice to a simple outfit and will even give a formal look more edge. The wild animal print can be used almost like a neutral and can make a good complement to pretty much anything, as illustrated by these fashionistas who each stepped out in Lanvin’s Escarpin Snakeskin Print Wedges.  

Jada Pinkett Smith stood tall in the 5-inch platforms back in April at the White House Easter Egg Roll in D.C., and wore the heels with a casually chic outfit of high-waist shorts and a rose tank. The fly mom always lets her footwork make a statement and showed off the shoe’s grosgrain ribbon ankle tie.

Jennifer Lopez went all out with the shoes in the video for her single “I’m Into You” featuring Lil Wayne and paired them with a matching Lanvin halter snakeskin maxi dress, a snakeskin turban and snakeskin bangles. The look might’ve worked for her desert-queen feeling video, but for everyday application, head-to-toe snakeskin is a bit much. Make the print stand out in a good way by using it in smaller doses!

Kelly Rowland brought a plain T-shirt to life with purple skinny jeans and her pair of the shoes when she made a visit to NBC studios in New York recently. Love her play on color and the sexy print!
