Jenna Ortega Wore Fall’s Hottest Burgundy Loafers

As a fresh force on the fashion scene, Jenna Ortega is one of my favorite sources of styling inspiration right now. Favoring wardrobe staples with a preppy twist, the actor’s style is timeless, wearable, and always chic. So naturally, when I caught wind of Ortega’s arrival at the Venice Film Festival, I was intrigued to see what she’d wear.

Stepping out in sunny Italy, the Beetlejuice Beetlejuice star styled an elevated outfit that captured some of fall’s most important trends. Wearing a boxy blazer complete with a bold checked print and a beige pleated miniskirt, Ortega’s look was off to a typically stylish start, but it was her chic shoe choice that made me do a double take. Styling a pair of chunky loafers in a rich burgundy shade, the actor wove fall’s key color trend into her outfit in a low-key way that says, “Yes, I’m in the know”.

Rich, opulent, and so easy to work into a capsule wardrobe, this fall shade is dark enough to act as black yet bold enough to catch your attention. A striking jewel tone, burgundy is inherently expensive-looking and pairs well with other luxe shades such as emerald and sapphire, yet looks equally elegant with neutrals such as brown, black, and beige.
