English actress Emily Mortimer was recently spotted in LA wearing a very chic and adorable ensemble. She paired a black pencil skirt with a coordinating black blouse and then went for a contrasting finish with a pair of bright red pumps. Her heels are from Saint Laurent and added the perfect pop of color and sass to her overall look!

Emily accessorized with a pair of black oversized sunnies and simple hoop earrings. She wore her hair in loose waves and kept her makeup very fresh and simple as well.

If I were to judge this look on a scale of 1–10, I’d have to give it at least an 8. Perhaps a little lip color would have helped, and a pulled-back hairstyle would have showcased her amazing top a bit better. Nonetheless, I love her red shoes!

Below is a strikingly similar pair of red patent pumps that we found at Neiman Marcus. They’d look amazing styled the same way as Emily did above. However, I’d also like to see them with a pair of slim cropped trousers in black and a simple black tank for a relaxed but cool Victoria Beckham–like look.
