We break down the statement shoes and fashion pieces J.Lo chose for the 2022 iHeartRadio Music Awards, a chic Los Angeles brunch, and a fabulous Fendi throwback from 2012.

🏆 Red-Carpet Power: Jennifer Lopez Wins Big in Stephane Rolland & Roberto Cavalli Boots

Jennifer Lopez won the Icon Award at the 2022 iHeartRadio Music Awards, where she also hit the stage for a showstopping medley of Get Right and On My Way, which is one of the tracks from her rom-com, Marry Me, opposite Owen Wilson.

Taking to the stage to pick up her award, J.Lo stunned in a Stephane Rolland Spring 2022 Couture green chiffon gown that featured a cleavage-baring plunging V-neckline, a large aquamarine gemstone, and a sheer bottom half that showed a glimpse of her toned legs.

For her performance, she wore a revealing black jumpsuit from Roberto Cavalli paired with black crystal-embellished gloves and matching boots.

She was later seen showing off her trophy on the red carpet while clad in a Roberto Cavalli Fall 2022 green velvet bandeau top, matching wide-leg pants, and a Cheetah-print silk robe.

A few days later, J.Lo stepped out for a weekend brunch with her 13-year-old twins, Emme and Max, in Los Angeles.

Effortless Glamour: J.Lo’s Aquazzura Platform Sandals and Grey Ant Flares Define Off-Duty Elegance

The Maid in Manhattan star elevated her off-duty look with a pair of Aquazzura “Issa” suede-and-leather platform sandals, which added height and a touch of vintage glamour. She paired them with Grey Ant’s grey braided flared denim pants, a statement silhouette that accentuated her famously sculpted legs and curves.

Finishing the outfit with layered gold jewelry — including a pendant necklace, drop earrings, and a delicate chain bracelet — Jennifer kept her hair in soft, cascading waves and opted for neutral makeup, balancing relaxed ease with unmistakable star polish.

Even before her 2022 award-season domination, Jennifer Lopez had long established herself as a true designer loyalist — especially when it came to her love affair with statement footwear. Let’s rewind a decade to one of her most memorable Fendi moments, which perfectly captured her early-2010s glam aesthetic.

🖤 Timeless Throwback: Jennifer Lopez Revisits 2010s Glam with Fendi ‘Fendista’ Booties

In October 2012, we spotted a celebrity Fendista wearing a Fendista! Actually, it was Fendi-loving Jennifer Lopez sporting one of the label’s booties – the ‘Fendista’.

Jen wore the shoes while out and about in London with her boyfriend, Casper. She paired the suede Fendista with a black-and-white coat and leather skinnies.

No doubt, those booties are gorgeous—but how do you feel about Jen’s bold black-and-white coat pairing?

The ‘Fendista’ is a sexy ankle-high boot in black suede, with black patent leather accents. It also features a gold-trimmed side zipper and a 5-inch stacked heel.

But the one detail that really makes it stand out is the metal FF logo emblazoned at the tip of the (1-inch-thick) platform.
