New Style Idea

French First Lady Brigitte Macron joined her husband, French President Emmanuel Macron, this week in Lithuania for a meeting with the country’s president, Gitanas Nauseda.

For the occasion, the French figureheads joined Nauseda and his wife, Diana Nausediene, at the President’s Palace in Vilnius, Lithuania, to sign the guest book and discuss policy. Brigitte herself opted for a bright blue ensemble for the afternoon, layering a matching peacoat over a knee-length shift dress; the designs echo similar designs and silhouettes from Louis Vuitton, the French first lady’s go-to brand.

In addition to her colorful layered look, the former schoolteacher opted for her most beloved pair of heels from Louis Vuitton, the Eyeline pump. The style boasts a rounded vamp with a sharp front, contrasted by a metallic detail around the meeting point of the 4-inch stiletto lift and the heel counter. The rarer style once retailed for over $800 at time of sale.

Though the French fashion house’s Eyeline may not be on retail shelves anymore, select bold colorways of the pumps can be found on resale sites like TheRealReal and The Luxury Closet for up to $580.

When it comes to the French first lady’s style, she oftentimes favors Louis Vuitton when it comes to clothing, shoes and accessories. With footwear, specifically, she leans toward pointed-toe pumps with a stiletto or block heel usually around 4 inches high. Louis Vuitton’s Eyeline silhouette remains one of her favorites, of course, but she also frequents the graphic-print Matchmake pump. The former educator lives up to the style motifs of her native France, opting for layered looks and perfectly tailored pieces that keep up with the nation’s style aesthetic: chic, clean and understated, with just the right amount of je ne sais quoi.
