Your new go-to summer shoe, coming right up. Between barely-there sandals, neon sneakers, and the growing popularity of sleeper shoes, what a girl really needs this season is a basic pair of footwear to slip her feet into. These ballet flats have earned a spot in Naomi Watts' rotation, so they must be worthy of a spot in yours.

When it comes to feminine fashion, this English actor reigns. Girly silhouettes, floral prints, and frilly details are pretty much her thing. Even during a casual outing in Tribeca, Watts looks like the epitome of Parisian chic, thanks in part to that red and black striped wrap midi with the sweet bubble sleeves.

Somehow, the Glass Castle actor always looks like she's en route to an upscale farmers market, with the occasional sun hat and an oversized tote permanently slung over her shoulder. One recurring staple in her wardrobe is an integral factor in her charming aesthetic.

Watts loves Tabitha Simmons' Hermione style so much she owns the shoes in several colors. Whenever the weather in New York allows for it, she pulls out these precious flats, which feature a polished pointed toe and a retro Mary Jane strap secured with a sparkly bead.

Before sporting the textured black moire version most recently, she wore them in a lustrous red hue last Sept. They were the highlight of Watts' Venice International Film Festival look, which also consisted of a heart-print dress, sun hat, and leather tote bag (the usual).

The dainty Mary Janes are right on par with Emma Roberts' throwback style — so on par, in fact, that Roberts owns a pair herself. Karlie Kloss, Brooklyn Decker, and Moda Operandi co-founder Lauren Santo Domingo have all worn them, too.

If these fashion girls are obsessed with the shoes, then you probably would be, too. Snag your own pair of the Hermione (or another like it), ahead.
