Mariah Carey brought a glamorous twist to snow-day style while out in Aspen.

Carey’s boots embraced the recent rise of platform-soled footwear while remaining versatile and sharp, thanks to their color, texture and height. Due to their popularity, similar pairs are regularly released from a range of labels in the fall and winter months, as seen in new styles from Vince Camuto, Giuseppe Zanotti and Paris Texas, among others.
Carey’s platforms added a soaring base to the rest of her ensemble for the occasion: a plaid Burberry poncho, black top and black leather pants, paired with tan Chanel faux fur earmuffs. For added glitz, the “Heartbreaker” singer finished her look with sparkling diamond cocktail rings, a diamond-coated chain necklace and oversized sunglasses. The moment marked the musician’s latest outing in Aspen, following her Friday appearance in heeled Christian Louboutin boots.
Carey’s platform boots emphasized the power of a towering shoe to instantly streamline an ensemble, thanks to matching colors and textures. The star’s clothing, outerwear and accessories created a tonal moment with their complementary palette, forming a coordinated look for the wintry outing.
