Lupita Nyong'o is about as lovely as a young starlet can get. Having recently graced the cover of Vogue and on a crazy publicity tour promoting Star Wars and a play, Lupita has had to pull out all the stops in the sartorial department. And she makes it look effortless.

For a SiriusXM Studios tour on Wednesday, the Oscar winner picked a lemon yellow knee-length dress, a leather biker jacket, her trusty Dior shades a green handbag and, in our opinion the star of the show, a kick-ass pair of striped pumps.

The trademark red sole instantly gives it away that these babies are by Christian Louboutin and we love everything that's going on with this shoe. Namely, the panels of green, pink and yellow PVC interspersed with white and black leather. The kicker is the metallic bronze leather heel. Just beautiful, particularly with an all-black look!

Or, see below, because we've rounded up some striped pumps that are worth adding to your wardrobe. We are particularly fond of the pair by Giambattista Valli.

She wore her hair in a funky mohican style and kept her make-up minimal.

Lupita wore a pair of monochrome and patterned pointed shoes which finished off her ensemble.

The 32-year-old Oscar winner has been hitting the ground running with promotional duties for Star Wars, in which she plays Maz Kanata, a space pirate who has lived for over a thousand years.

The part places huge importance on eyes.

She has said of the role: 'As an actor for films, your eyes are a lot of the way you communicate anyway.'

Lupita added to Entertainment Weekly: 'So it was definitely a gift to have that be the means to her magic as a motion-capture character.'

Director J.J. Abrams said of Maz: 'I had some specific ideas about how she would work and what she would do.

'I had this pitch about these goggles that she wore. Her eyes are an important aspect of her character, and you’ll see how it plays out.'

Lupita, who won an Oscar for her turn in 12 Years A Slave said she got caught up in the whirlwind of Hollywood after her success.

She told Essence magazine: 'I had talked so much about who I was that I'd forgotten who I was.'

'After 12 Years A Slave and the quote-unquote meteoric rise, I felt like there was a moment where I was suffering from whiplash,' Lupita confessed.

The Kenyan beauty has spent the past few months in the off-Broadway play, Eclipsed which was written by playwright, Danai Gurira.

The smash hit just wrapped on Sunday but will move to Broadway in February with Lupita attached after a nearly sold-out run.

Lupita stars in the play which is set in 2003 and 'illustrates how women and girls are usually the first and most horrifically abused victims of such warfare,' the New York Times reported.

'I didn't grow up seeing African women onstage very often, much less African women in African stories,' she told Essence.

'I was in love with the world Danai created.'
