Jennifer Lawrence Doubles Down on the Sneakerina Shoe Trend

Jennifer Lawrence Doubles Down on the Sneakerina Shoe Trend

Vogue4 days ago
Jennifer Lawrence is usually an early adopter of footwear trends. As the long-held title holder of poster girl for quiet luxury (up there with Sofie Richie Grainge and the Olsens of course), she's ushered in the heatwave-friendly and now summer staple mesh ballet flat, pre-empted the jelly shoe revival, and incorporated some it-girl sneakers into her own J. Law style formula. While it took her a little while longer to experiment with the sneakerina trend, it looks like it's becoming a regular in her current summer shoe rotation—-and for good reason.
Stepping out in Midtown in New York City, the Die, My Love actor made her second sartorial attempt at sneakerina styling, with a pair of black and cream-soled Wales Bonner velcro shoes. The Mary Jane style, with its thick embossed strap and Vibram sole, is also a perfect post partum shoe for Lawrence, who recently gave birth to her second child shared with partner Cooke Moroney.

It's a shoe hybrid that's proliferated on the runways and in drops from across the fashion spectrum: Simone Rocha, Cecilie Bahnsen, Louis Vuitton et al. The 'sneakerina'—a portmanteau of 'sneaker' and 'ballerina,' for the uninitiated—as a name, really, can be applied to any of the more feminine-shaped sneakers of late. Beloved by a more subversive and bold fashion set that includes Chloë Sevigny and Amelia Gray, it's a chaotic, polarizing footwear mash-up that Lawrence shows to be more versatile and relaxed than you'd first think.
The rest of the outfit was textbook Jennifer Lawrence for summer. The actor wore an oversized white t-shirt with a Picasso print, a cobalt blue cardi tied around her shoulders (a beloved, transeasonal J.Law color), and loose primary red trousers. As for accessories, she forewent a deep dive into her enviable collection of vintage it-bags in favor of a cream knit tote bag, and added a black bucket hat when she'd usually don a novelty baseball cap. Has Oasis summer and the Britpop revival been an influence, perhaps?
While Hailey Bieber and Kendall Jenner stick to the heeled sandal hybrid, Selena Gomez styles suits and thongs, and the Olsens outfit everyone in The Row's viral Dune flip-flops, the sneakerina brigade has a newfound member in Jennifer Lawrence. So if you haven't yet, now's your chance to step into the summer shoe trend J.Law seems confident is here to stay.

Jon Stewart Supports Friend Stephen Colbert Through CBS Cancellation

Welcome to Best of Late Night, a rundown of the previous night's highlights that lets you sleep — and lets us get paid to watch comedy. Here are the 50 best movies on Netflix right now. Too Little, Too Late? On Monday, late night hosts responded to the news that 'The Late Show' will end next May. Stephen Colbert gratefully acknowledged the outpouring of support he'd received since the announcement last Thursday, while also lamenting the grief and anger fans have been expressing. 'Folks, I'm going to go ahead and say it: Cancel culture has gone too far,' Colbert said, keeping a comical bent. 'I want to thank everybody who reached out to me over the weekend, including one text from an unknown number offering a high-paying I.T. work-from-home job for only two to three hours a day. Yes, I am very interested, and I will be sending you my routing number in May. Daddy needs a job.' — STEPHEN COLBERT Both Colbert and his friend Jon Stewart offered a similarly expletive-laden response to CBS, while the latter admitted he is 'certainly not the most objective to comment on this matter.' Stewart reminisced about his shared history with Colbert on 'The Daily Show' back before Comedy Central launched 'The Colbert Report' as a successful spinoff. 'We were two pretty good-sized fish in a reasonably small basic cable pond. Both of our shows reached an inflection point in 2015. Stephen chose to challenge himself by seeing if he could succeed the legendary David Letterman in, quite frankly, a much bigger pond than the one he and I had been swimming in, and I quit.' — JON STEWART 'And, if I may, watching Stephen exceed all expectations in the role, and become the No. 1 late night show on network television, has been an undeniable great pleasure for me as a viewer and as his friend.' — JON STEWART 'Now, I acknowledge, losing money, late-night TV is a struggling financial model. We are all basically operating a Blockbuster kiosk inside of a Tower Records. But when your industry is faced with changes, you don't just call it a day. My God! When CDs stopped selling, they didn't just go, 'Oh, well, music, it's been a good run.' — JON STEWART 'Well, over the weekend, somebody at CBS followed up their gracious press release with a gracious anonymous leak, saying they pulled the plug on our show because of losses pegged between $40 million and $50 million a year. Forty million's a big number. I could see us losing $24 million, but where would Paramount have possibly spent the other $16 million … oh, yeah.' — STEPHEN COLBERT, referring to the $16 million Paramount agreed to pay President Trump to settle a lawsuit 'I believe CBS lost the benefit of the doubt two weeks prior, when they sold out their flagship news program to pay an extortion fee to said president. At that time, poor Andy Rooney must have been rolling over in his bed. That's right, he's alive. Andy Rooney is alive.' — JON STEWART 'So here's the point: If you're trying to figure out why Stephen's show is ending, I don't think the answer can be found in some smoking gun email or phone call from Trump to CBS executives, or in CBS's QuickBooks spreadsheets on the financial health of late night. I think the answer in the fear and pre-compliance that is gripping all of America's institutions at this very moment — institutions that have chosen not to fight the vengeful and vindictive actions of our pubic hair-doodling commander in chief. This is not the moment to give in. I'm not giving in! I'm not going anywhere — I think.' — JON STEWART 'And now, for the next 10 months, the gloves are off. Yeah! I can finally — I can finally speak unvarnished truth to power and say what I really think about Donald Trump, starting right now: I don't care for him. Doesn't seem to have, like, the skill set. Doesn't have the skill set to be president. You know, just not a good fit. That's all.' — STEPHEN COLBERT The Punchiest Punchlines (Bawdy Birthday Card Edition) Want all of The Times? Subscribe.

Will Franklin County tax cigarettes to fund arts and culture projects?

COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) — A few Ohio counties will soon be allowed to levy a cigarette tax to pay for local arts and culture programming. Signed by Gov. Mike DeWine last month, the next two-year, $60 billion operating budget allows Ohio counties with charter governments or populations of more than 800,000 to ask voters to approve a local cigarette tax benefiting arts and culture projects, like for local theaters, art institutes, orchestras, festivals, sports facilities, dance studios, farmers markets, and more. Nationwide Arena eyes unclaimed funds in Ohio budget for $400 million renovation The measure applies to Franklin, Summit and Hamilton counties, while other Ohio counties aren't home to populations that are large enough. Delaware County, for example, has a population of about 242,000 and will not be eligible. Still, the Franklin County Board of Commissioners has yet to decide if such a tax will be explored in the county. 'While we have been following the Ohio state budgeting process closely, we have not yet had any discussions about permissive authority in the budget for counties to levy a cigarette tax if approved by voters,' the board said in a statement. 'We will be reviewing this once the county budget process begins in the fall for fiscal year 2026.' The budget expands a funding tool used in Cuyahoga County for nearly 20 years. Voters passed the 10-year cigarette tax in 2006, renewed it for another decade in 2015, then expanded it in 2024. Since then, the tax has generated more than $260 million. The Cuyahoga Arts & Culture organization manages these funds and is solely operated by the tax on cigarettes sold in the county. The organization has distributed 95% of the funding, more than $257 million, to other county groups, companies, nonprofits and more through about 4,000 grants supporting arts and culture. New Ohio law to require adult websites to verify users' ages Like in Cuyahoga, the budget does not impose a direct tax. Instead, it allows Franklin, Summit and Hamilton county commissioners to place a tax proposal on the ballot. If approved by voters, the revenue must be used specifically for local arts and cultural programs. Each county would be responsible for establishing a group to oversee the funds, like Cuyahoga Arts & Culture. The governor had also called for an additional cigarette tax to be included in the budget, funding the state's child tax credit. However, the proposal, which would have increased statewide taxes on cigarettes from $1.60 to $3.10 per pack, never advanced after Statehouse Republicans argued the tax would be an unreliable source of revenue.

Sharon Stone announces death of mother Dorothy Stone

Sharon Stone has announced the death of her "hilarious, complex" mother, Dorothy Stone. Taking to Instagram on Monday, the Basic Instinct actress posted a photo showing her laughing while sitting next to her mum on a sofa. "My hilarious, complex mother died," she wrote in the caption, adding: "A product of the last depression, let's NOT do this again. Let's protect and care." In an obituary recently published in Montana newspaper Daily Inter Lake, Sharon and her siblings, Kelly and Michael, shared that Dorothy passed away "peacefully with her family and close friends by her side" at the age of 91 on 26 March. The former bookkeeper, who was born in 1933, was married to "true love" Joseph Stone from 1950 until his death "just shy of their 60th anniversary" in 2009. "Dorothy, 'Dot' to her friends, was known for her great humor, love of music, bingo, slots, gardening, socializing with her many friends and her creative style was evident in the way she created her home, garden & she was so proud of her eclectic and welcoming home (sic)," the obituary reads. Following the sad news, a number of Sharon's celebrity friends offered their condolences via Instagram. "So very sorry for your loss, Sharon. Sending love," wrote Allison Janney, while Viola Davis commented, "Sending love and blessings in abundance." And Melanie Griffith added: "Sorry for your loss Sharon. Sending you love!" A celebration of Dorothy's life will take place in Montana this summer.
