Summer is my favorite season for celebrity street styling. There’s something so exciting about never knowing where fashion girls will resurface\u2014or what they’ll be wearing on their remote vacation<\/a>. I was shocked to see Emma Watson<\/a> out and about in Venice on June 8, let alone in an anti-flip-flops trend<\/a>.<\/p>\n Watson is coming up on a week in Italy, though her beachside sightings have been slim to none. I’m all for paparazzi giving her some space. Then again, it would’ve been a crime not to capture her Italy-approved It shoes. Dua Lipa<\/a>, who celebrated her second wedding<\/a> close by last weekend, brought the heeled flip-flops trend<\/a> abroad. Watson, on the other hand, kept it classically coastal in traditional Mexican huarache sandals.<\/a><\/p>\n First, picture the high-vamp uppers and low-profile soles of loafers. Then, replace conventional leather with woven cinnamon-colored bands, which criss-cross each other from toe box to heel. Some fashion girls might call them fisherman sandals<\/a>. Two key differences\u2014the braids’ thickness and the uppers’ vertical straps\u2014make the style more breathable than yester-summer’s boat shoes. <\/a><\/p>\n Emma Watson was spotted in Venice, Italy, wearing woven huarache sandals.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/figcaption> (Image credit: Backgrid)<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n Watson’s huarache sandals felt surprisingly mature, especially compared to flirty flip-flops. But she didn’t take her vacation outfit<\/a> too seriously. She styled the woven flats with a white pajama set, which featured an oversize collar and a girlish floral print. The Harry Potter<\/em> alum even played around with cherry-shaped earrings and the beaded necklace trend.<\/a><\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/flexiimages\/yo0epfjohr1645112637.svg\")
