These leather Mary Janes at Amazon are a near match to Paltrow’s Jimmy Choos — for $763 less. They’ve got the same glossy black finish, square toe, and pearl embellishment on the top strap. Your feet will feel so cozy against the soft lambskin inner lining and rubber sole.
“This is a beautiful shoe,”wrote one five-star reviewer. “It is comfortable, stylish, and easy to get into and out of.” These would be comfy for a long day of shopping in a warmer climate, or elevated with a dress for a formal party.

This snappy pair of the brand’s Hummingbirds keep the form of Paltrow’s shoes but lose the pearls.
