The Cannes Film Festival might have rejected flats but the fashion community, and everyone else, still loves the wardrobe staple. And with A-listers like Cate Blanchett, Jennifer Lawrence, and Aymeline Valade sporting them everywhere from the street to the red carpet, the practical shoe is getting a decidedly fancy upgrade. Arriving at London Heathrow with son Maddox, actress Angelina Jolie cut a lean figure in a sleek all-black look. but it was her subtle nude slippers that stole the show.

While air travel is never easy or enjoyable, Jolie wears the ideal traveling ensemble in shades of black, adding contrast with a weathered Louis Vuitton keepall. The jacket is perfect for boarding passes and any trinkets belonging to the little Jolie-Pitts, while the trousers keep a clean line. To fast-track your way through security, slip on streamlined skimmers like these; they’ll make your look first class in a heartbeat.
