Fashion has its ups and downs, but there are some trends we never expected to come back to. One of them is jelly shoes, which became a real fashion hit in the 80s. More than three decades later, jelly shoes are back and live on the feet of Hollywood’s best, including Jennifer Lawrence.


With a coffee in hand, the star recently stepped out in New York wearing a kitten-yarn t-shirt, baggy blue jeans and Melissa Possession Sandals in glittery pink.

Known for their rubbery texture and strappy silhouette, jelly shoes are the ultimate summer and fall sandals because they provide great coverage while allowing your feet to breathe. The Yehopere t-strap sandals strongly resemble Jennifer Lawrence’s pair with their rubber sole, buckled ankle strap and silver finish.


Likewise, the Hee Grand Jelly Sandals also feature a buckled ankle strap and rubber sole with glitter embellishments. Moreover, the slingback sandals are popular among Amazon buyers and have hundreds of five-star ratings, with a critic calling them the “most comfortable jellies ever”. They also come in a gorgeous gold.




If the sequins seem too much to you, Chinese Laundry Feliz Sandal could be a bit more your vibe. The rubber jelly shoes come in a stylish all-black color with added shine, making them versatile for dressing up and down. And they’re on sale right now for just $17 – an absolute steal.


For a little more cash, you can get a pair of night-ready jelly sandals from Free People for $78. The Margot embellished flats come in four chic colors (blue, green, red, and transparent), and they’re strung with rhinestones that can dress up your pants, skirts, and dresses.


And while the star’s exact pair of Melissa Possession jelly sandals are sold out, you can get a similar style from the same brand at Anthropologie. The Gradient sandals come in a purple and red pattern color, which would go well with denim.


Obviously, jelly sandals are more versatile than expected. Step into this resurrected ’80s trend by shopping our favorite jelly shoes below, and thank Jennifer Lawrence later.
