Lady Gaga is called many things, but she is never labeled a snob. The eccentric artist always makes sure she has time to appreciate her fans.

The pop star has recently resurfaced in the public eye, sporting a look that does not include even a dust of glitter on her body and ridding her of her signature golden (sometimes rainbow) locks in preparation for the release of her latest song after her two-year hiatus.

Aside from her decision to greet awaiting fans wearing a pullover covered in dried paint (pretty tame for her standards), the pop star put on a gorgeous pair of normal-looking peplum pants.

The overall look was quite ordinary, except that she decided to wear mismatched shoes. Again, we are no longer surprised.

She is promoting her new single, and just the other day, an army of supporters gathered outside the Chateau Marmont Hotel to see their idol.

Lady Gaga wore the entire look straight from the runway (save for the mismatched shoes) of the much-anticipated first RTW collection of Alexander Wang for Balenciaga. The 29-year-old Wang was appointed as Balenciaga’s chief designer back in December, making this his debut ready-to-wear collection (not that he’s a stranger to the pressure, though).

Of course, Gaga did not disappoint. When leaving her hotel, she stopped by her fans to chat, take pictures, and sign autographs.

The artist spent much time giving out autographs and taking pictures with her beloved fans, even accepting a bouquet from one before heading out to a studio. As gaga as she may be, this person is no stranger to gratitude.

Although Gaga has been toning down her look lately (no more kooky headdresses and outrageous hairstyles), she still makes sure her outfits are mixed in with fierce elements like her Balenciaga Fall 2013 cracked-effect sweater and her mismatched Balenciaga pumps.

Strangely, though, we think her mismatched shoes do not look weird. They seem perfectly in sync with her whole ensemble! What do you think?

Unfortunately, these fierce pointy-toe pumps are not yet available online. However, this great alternative has a similar t-strap design and a nice textured look.
