Simone Ashley kept Paris Texas in her footwear orbit on Sunday night, arriving at Tashca NYC in SoHo ahead of her birthday in the label’s Jane boots with a leather Marine Serre set.
The “Bridgerton” star wore the Jane Buckle Boot in black napa leather, a made-in-Italy knee-high style with a 60mm heel. The knee-high silhouette featured a clean, straight topline and soft creasing through the ankle and lower shin. The front narrowed into a long pointed toe with a subtly squared edge at the tip, while a slim strap sat low around the ankle with a silver buckle at the outer side.

The compact block heel gave the boot a sturdier finish than Paris Texas’ better-known stiletto shapes. While Ashley’s buckle-trimmed version has proved harder to track down, the Jane line remains part of Paris Texas’ broader boot offer, with a stiletto version currently available.

Ashley paired the boots with Marine Serre’s Leather Bustier Mini Dress With Floral Patches and matching Leather Blouson With Floral Patches. Her strapless black leather minidress featured cream bands at the neckline and hem. Red appliqué outlined in brown covered the bust and lower skirt in curved, flame-like shapes, while red tulips with cream leaves and long brown stems appeared at the waist and again down the front of the jacket. The same cream, red and brown appliqué also covered the oversized collar, shoulders and cuffs. A black Hammitt Meredith bag in a long east-west shape finished the look.
This isn’t the first time Ashley has worn a Paris Texas boot that has been hard to track down, either. Last September, she chose the brand’s croc-embossed Ricky boots during Milan Fashion Week, a pair that leaned harder into cowboy codes.

The choice also landed during a busy stretch for Paris Texas. In February, the brand expanded its Lidia family with new thong styles and a boot option, extending the franchise that helped make its heels so visible in the first place. Paris Texas has also continued to show up on celebrities including Kerry Washington, Sydney Sweeney, Heidi Klum, Dakota Johnson, Katy Perry and Beyoncé.
