Gigi Hadid posted a photo on Instagram yesterday morning in the cutest footwear trend of the moment: the kitten heel.

The millennial model paid tribute to the ’90s in a pair of retro mules while attending a breakfast and conversation hosted by Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour.

The social media influencer posed in the photo perching on a ledge in an oversize button-up shirt with a yellow and brown pattern. In her hand, she held a small Prada lightning-print nylon bag that retails for $850.

She posted a series of photos, starting with a close-up of her face to show off her dangling earrings, which featured three oval-shaped decorations and wire bent in the shape of a face.

She matched the look with a pair of gray slim-fitting jeans and two-toned kitten-heel shoes with a sexy red lining. The sensible sandal has been trending in the fashion world as a part of the uncool-cool trend that is being channeled at the moment. The so-called mom-mule look has been on the rise as the fashion counterpart to the popular dad sneaker trend.

Some of the most stylish celebs have been spotted rocking the kitten heel. Zendaya made an appearance on “Good Morning America” earlier this month in a quirky, light-as-air pant and tunic ensemble with a sparse print that resembles drawing board sketches of auto designs. She matched this with a pair of dark satin kitten-heel slingbacks.

Kendall Jenner has also been seen in the trend. The model wore a pair of Stuart Weitzman Edith slingback pumps with a 2-inch heel and pointed toes on the streets of L.A. in April. She styled the shoes with a long-sleeved leopard-print minidress.
