Instead of Sneakers, Margot Robbie Takes Her Hot Girl Walks in a Puff-Sleeve Dress and Mary Janes

The star looked stylish and radiant after welcoming her first child last month.

Margot Robbie was undeniably glowing on a hot girl walk in Los Angeles on Friday, Nov. 15. Having given birth to her son with husband Tom Ackerley last month, it's no wonder why the star is all soft smiles lately. With several friends in tow, the Oscar nominee took a casual afternoon stroll in a black puff-sleeve black dress with a square neckline. The frock also managed to incorporate the holy grail I always look for when shopping for daytime dresses: pockets.

While it's hard to say from afar, I'm fairly convinced the mini dress is a cotton poplin design from Ciao Lucia. The LA-based brand is known for its deep catalogue of wearable, feminine dresses—many of which ring up for less than $500. Olivia Rodrigo is a fan of the line as well, so it's not hard to imagine their dresses populating Robbie's closet. Alternatively, New York designer Nikki Chasin offers a very similar silhouette with sleeves that are both puffed and ruffled for extra flair.

Robbie accessorized her breezy dress with black ballet flats that leaned into the Mary Janes trend, a gold herringbone chain necklace, and black oval sunglasses. The accessories were consistent with her pre-baby stylebook, when minimal shapes and neutral tones dominated her wardrobe.

According to Marie Claire fashion features editor Emma Childs, the best Mary Janes can be found from brands like The Row, Rothy's, and Larroudé. But for the closest match for the Barbie star's rounded black leather Mary Jane flats with an ultra-thin elastic strap, look no further than Madewell, Tory Burch, and Everlane. As Robbie's sunny stroll clearly demonstrates, these shoes were made for walking.

Hanna’s editorial journey began with formative internships at Elle and InStyle, where she was lucky enough to work for some of the smartest women in media while she was still in college at the University of Tennessee. Hanna then accepted a digital culture reporting fellowship at Insider, where she helped carve out a new beat dedicated to covering influencers. Those experiences later served her well as a staff writer at Glamour, where she developed a knack for spinning quick turnaround celebrity news and trend reporting into juicy feature stories. Some of her greatest hits include an earnest ode to the no-pants trend, this meticulously reported feature exploring the rise of endoscopic facelifts, this snappy take on the Chanel-designed fantasy of Sofia Richie’s wedding, this tribute to WAGs past and present, and this timeline of Katie Holmes’s life and career as told through her denim collection.

Diane Keaton once hung up on Hanna during an interview, but thankfully that mishap did not derail what has otherwise been a deeply fulfilling career writing for and about women. As one of Marie Claire's resident experts on style and culture, her current coverage ranges from exploring TikTok's contrast makeup theory and the return of the boat shoe trend to interviews with costume designers for hit shows like Nobody Wants This and The Penguin. When she’s not at work, Hanna can probably be found listening to pop music, talking to her dog, and gossiping with her best friends.
