Lauren Sanchez brought a pop of color to This is About Humanity (TIAH)’s fifth annual fundraising event.
On Saturday, Sanchez arrived to the occasion at a private residence in Los Angeles, along with boyfriend Jeff Bezos. For the occasion, the former newscaster slipped on a pair of transparent mules, complete with thin soles topped by two wide, clear PVC front straps.
Sanchez’s slip-on style was finished with a heeled base, given the angle of her feet and the shoe’s similar silhouettes on the market — though their exact heel shape could not be seen. Regardless, the pair provided a slick, “invisible” base to her outfit: a deep red bodycon dress with crystal-lined straps, which Sanchez paired with diamond stud earrings and a silver bracelet.
The helicopter pilot’s mules leaned into the seasonal summer trend of open-toed mules, given their ventilated silhouette and ease to slip on and off. Pairs have regularly been released throughout the 2020’s in a range of colors, textures and materials, owed to the shoe’s original popularity in the early 2000’s — an era that’s had a strong comeback in the present day. Transparent styles like Sanchez’s are a slick, “naked shoe”-like take on the silhouette, which can also be seen in new collections from Schutz, Cult Gaia and Paris Texas, among others.
Sanchez took a moment during the charitable event to mingle with friends, including Kim Kardashian and Eva Longoria. She also posed for photos with Bezos, as well, who was neutrally outfitted in a gray button-down shirt and white trousers with a beige suede collared jacket and matching boots.
This is About Humanity (TIAH)’s annual fundraising soiree raises money and awareness towards separated families at the U.S.-Mexico border. The charity’s 2023 event featured a range of star guests, including Kim Kardashian, Eva Longoria and Lauren Sanchez.
