Lauren Conrad Knows Cropped Jeans Look Best With This Flat-Shoe Trend

While longline jeans continue to trend as the denim choice du jour among the fashion crowd, cropped jeans have been rising in popularity again. Bella Hadid wore a chic pair of cropped jeans while in Europe last month, and Lauren Conrad is also in on the trend.

The fashion designer and reality TV star wore a pair of straight-leg cropped jeans that hit right at the ankle while in New York City promoting the much-anticipated Laguna Beach reunion. She styled the jeans with a gorgeous camel coat and a Saint Laurent crossbody bag. For shoes, she didn’t opt for sneakers, sandals, or ballet flats, which are often front-runners with cropped jeans and, of course, are a stylish choice. She wore backless loafers, which are also becoming increasingly popular. Note that Hadid also paired loafers with her cropped jeans.

As the S/S 2026 runways proved, backless loafers are an It shoe choice. They not only bring instant polish to a look, but the slip-on nature gives them an easy, wearable vibe. And yes, the cropped nature of Conrad’s jeans is the perfect choice to show off the backless design detail.
