Olympic Medalist IIona Maher Shines in Pretty Pumps at Sports Illustrated Swimsuit 60th Anniversary Event
Olympic rugby medalist IIona Maher made an appearance at the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit 60th anniversary event with Maybelline in a pair of pointed-toe pumps and a black dress.
Serving a monochromatic look, the pumps were constructed with patent leather material and emphasized by their sharp, triangular design. Supported with a closed-back, the silhouette was rounded out by a stiletto heel estimated to be in-between 4-to-5 inches in height, which is typical of the heels Maher has been wearing on “Dancing With the Stars.”
Completing her outfit was a black off-the-shoulder minidress that emphasized her athletic legs. Wearing her hair in a pulled back style, the athlete accessorized her look with dangling earrings and a classic makeup look with neutral eyeshadow and a red lip. While pointed pumps have been a very popular choice for celebrities and influencers alike in the year 2024 courtesy of their timeless design and versatility.
In fact, quite a few celebrities have been spotted wearing them in recent weeks. Last week, Jennifer Hudson got into the holiday spirit in a red dress and matching red pumps while hosting music legend Andrea Bocelli while hosting “The Jennifer Hudson Show.” The pumps were a major highlight of her outfit as they were crafted with crimson red suede material, and emphasized by a triangular design in the upper. The shoes also featured a skimpy-strapped slingback with pointy toes and a sharp, stiletto 3 inch heel, which were in-line with her previous appearances and footwear preferences.
Actress Laura Dern was also spotted earlier this week at the Saban Community Clinic’s 48th Annual Gala in a pair of Prada’s satin cut-out pumps. Those shoes were crafted with a glossy satin material, and featured an elaborate triangular design in the upper that was emphasized by its criss-cross design. The pumps curved as they reached the mid-foot region giving the illusion of having cut outs on the side and were embellished by a jeweled ornament and silver metal buckle.
