Singer and yoga studio director Lee Hyori has once again captured attention with her unique fashion sense. Following her recent interest in jelly shoes—a retro fashion item gaining popularity again—she revealed a glimpse into her daily life wearing so-called "toe shoes," showcasing her signature natural style.
On the 5th, Lee posted a message to her students through the official account of the yoga studio she operates. She engaged in friendly communication by sharing a photo along with the caption, "Are you all doing well, members? Please rest well for the remainder of the weekend and come to relieve your muscle pain tomorrow quite soon.""
The released photo captures Lee walking along a forest path with her pet dog. Her appearance, strolling through nature in comfortable attire, drew attention by showcasing her characteristic relaxed lifestyle.
In particular, the unique footwear slightly visible in the photo garnered interest from fans. The product worn by Lee is the so-called "toe shoe," which features a design where each toe is separated, offering a distinct look compared to regular sneakers. Designed to allow for more natural toe movement, these shoes have consistently attracted enthusiasts for combining functionality with individuality.
This item previously gained public attention when several stars, including BLACKPINK's Jennie and actress Shin Min-a, wore them last year. Lee also made headlines by revealing herself wearing toe shoes at the time, and recently, she shared her daily life wearing jelly shoes that were trendy for a while, earning praise for interpreting retro fashion trends through her own unique lens.
Rather than blindly following trends, Lee's styling—reinterpreting past items with a modern sensibility—consistently draws the interest of fashion enthusiasts. Her fashion philosophy, which emphasizes comfort and practicality without losing individuality, is clearly reflected in her everyday styling.
In September last year, Lee opened her yoga studio under the persona "Ānanda" and continues to engage directly with her students. Beyond her musical activities, she continues to forge her own path in various fields by sharing a lifestyle centered around yoga and wellness.
