For her day in the spotlight, Ellen Pompeo wore strappy sandals while being honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The actress was on hand with her husband Chris Every for the event in Los Angeles on Tuesday.

The “Grey’s Anatomy” star wore a longsleeved peach top including a mockneck with a printed skirt featuring a mermaid silhouette. She wore her hair in bouncy waves.

For shoes, Pompeo chose Jude’s Mixer Sandal. The leather style is in the color bordeaux. It features a round toe and a multi-cable strap. The straps go across the toes, up the foot and then around the top of the foot as well as around the ankle. The straps are thin, exposing the majority of the foot.

This all sits on a sculpted heel of about four inches. Jude sells its Mixer sandal for $440. The company was founded in 2024 by Jurgita Dileviciute and Denitsa Bumbarova. Each style is made in Portugal with Italian and French leather.

With temperatures heating up, sandals and other open-toe silhouettes have been popular with celebrities. At the White House Correspondents Dinner on Saturday, metallic, strappy sandals were a go-to. They were worn by names like Esme Morgan and Melanie Zanona. Bella Hadid recently wore a pair of archival black Versace sandals to her sister Gigi Hadid’s 30th birthday. Even Miley Cyrus got in on it while in New York City last week, picking a pair of black leather thong sandals from Maison Alaia.

For the Tiffany Blue Book Gala, Gabrielle Union wore a slip-on mule featuring an open-toe from Cult of Coquette. The uppers of that style were made from satin.
