For shoes, the multiple-time Grammy winner selected a bootie style. The shoes are from Journee Collection. They are slick and reflective as they are made of black patent vegan leather. They also sport a sharp, pointed toe.

The footwear includes a side-zip for ease of use — a Tru Comfort foam insole also adds to that ease. Most notably, the shoe includes a contrast heel: a thing gold stiletto of four inches.

Booties are a common fall style. Though they can be worn year round, they are often used as a perfect transition between seasons, particularly in suede leather.

The Oscar-winning actress also wore a leather skirt (which also may be vegan leather) featuring a twist detail at the hip. It also includes a slit up the side and is a high waisted silhouette. It was paired with a silk blouse and chunky gold-bracelet.

A Tony-winning producer who achieved the coveted EGOT status in 2022, is a fan of footwear with a bit of personality. Take the cream colored corset-inspired slingback shoes she wore in May. She slid into that style while leaving Fox Studios. The perforated shoes included tie up laces winding along the rim and the Mach & Mach signature bow at the vamp.

Or, the leopard print sneakers she wore for a filming of “The Jennifer Hudson Show” in May. While wearing an outfit remarkably similar to today’s, she laced up a pair of Woolier shoes featuring leopard print panels. The sneakers are named The dreamer and were created for the company’s Concrete Jungle capsule in collaboration with former WNBA star Ty Young.

Clips from “The Jennifer Hudson Show” have been going viral recently as the show’s staff welcomes each one of their guests, like Gwen Stefani, Saweetie, Angela Bassett and Flavor Flav, with a song and dance as they head into the studio for their sit-down with the singer.
