With its 8th season in full swing, there have been quite a few ‘America’s Got Talent’ red carpet events lately, giving us the opportunity to drool over the shoe choices of Heidi Klum and Mel B again and again.

On July 31, the two judges displayed their equally standout fashion tastes. While Mel B opted for an eye-catching pair of heels, Heidi once again chose a more classic style. Let’s take a closer look at their outfits.

Mel B in Giuseppe Zanotti “Gold Serpent” Sandals

We last saw Mel B in a pair of metal plate Giuseppe Zanotti sandals that flattered her so well, she stuck with a similar design. This time around, she rocked the popular Zanotti serpent sandals with a sophisticated red pencil dress. We love how understated her dress is since it allowed her heels to truly stand out.

These hot Zanotti sandals have been a celeb-favorite ever since their debut last fall. We’ve spotted them on Taylor Swift, Brittany Snow, Nicole Scherzinger, and Naomie Harris. It’s a good thing they were re-issued after selling out!

Heidi Klum in Jimmy Choo “Jada” Sandals

Heidi gave her Saint Laurent pumps a rest and went for another elegant style, but this time from Jimmy Choo. The 40-year-old model complemented her summery “Jada” sandals with a printed Michael Kors dress in yellow and black. She added a Rodarte belt to the dress and further accessorized with multiple jewelry pieces, making her outfit a little too busy. Still, she was radiant as always.
