Slide into Leighton's Birkenstocks

Okay okay, we thought we'd never say it but we'll just have to eat our words: Birkenstocks are IN.

It's no secret that the 'ugly duckling' of the fashion world has made its way onto the feet of every Hollywood A-lister. And frankly, it's no wonder too because once you slide your tired, swollen pregnant feet into these fashionable sandals- you'll never want to take them off either!

Birkenstock invented the molded soul look- and because of them just about every designer has put their two cents in on the design and made a pair themselves.

Why not go with the OG of the trend and buy a pair for yourself? You can click right and nab a pair in Leighton's exact color at Zappos.com

Appearing to wear minimal - if any make-up - the actress' natural beauty shined through as she kept cover under a pair of sunglasses.

She kept things very casual for the outing in a pair of Birkenstock sandals and a simple bag slung over her shoulder.

Her eyes, however, appeared to be bigger than her stomach as she carried a doggie bag to her car after her meal.

The star - who secretly tied the knot with Adam Brody last year - recently revealed that she had wanted to follow in the footsteps of co-star Blake Lively, who gave birth to her first child last year.

She told Nylon magazine: 'Most people I know are starting to get married. It'll be kids next. I like the grown-up stuff. I like having a house. I've got dogs.'

Leighton starred as Blair Waldorf in Gossip Girl - which she believes gave her a big break - but now it seems that the actress might be putting her feet up.

Last year, Leighton and her hubby Adam starred in the movie Life Partners together.

Speaking on The View at the time, she said she loved mix business with pleasure. 

'I always want to work with people that I like and love and people that I'm friends with. It's nice to mix business with pleasure,' she revealed.

And Leighton insisted she didn't mind seeing Adam kiss his friend Gillian Jacobs in the movie either. She said of their kissing scene: 'I think, if anything, I think that they pulled it off really well.

'I think it's good to have that kind of history, and if that makes it awkward, it works because it's kind of awkward kissing people for the first time. But I think that it didn't look awkward, so I don't know. They look in love.'
