In June 2013, AnnaSophia Robb and the cast of the 2013 American coming-of-age comedy-drama film The Way, Way Back attended a meet-and-greet at the Apple store in SoHo, New York.
AnnaSophia Robb, who portrayed Susanna Thompson, daughter of the hard-drinking Betty Thompson (Allison Janney) and the love interest of Duncan (Liam James), was 18 years old when the film was shot during the summer of 2012.

It premiered on January 21, 2013, at the 2013 Sundance Film Festival, just a month after she celebrated her 19th birthday on December 8, 2012.
AnnaSophia Robb’s Thoughts on the Film
In an interview with Refinery29, AnnaSophia Robb revealed why she enjoyed making the film.
From the moment I read the script, I thought, ‘Oh my gosh, it’s so well-rounded.’ All of the characters have such development — well, not Steve Carell’s character. They feel real, and they feel relatable. It was just so nice to see such well-written dialogue. I felt really good after I finished reading it. Our table read was so much fun. It was at Nat and Jim’s kitchen table. Being able to work with such talented, and happy, generous people was such a huge blessing. Nat and Jim are the bomb. I’m really excited to see the movies they make in the future ‘cause they’re going to be on the money every time.
Stylish Outfit Details
For the occasion, Anna wore a striped top and a black leather skirt, keeping it smart and easy.

Sounds like nothing special? Well, the young Carrie actually kicked it up a notch and styled the outfit with a gorgeous statement necklace plus a pair of super sexy wedges we couldn’t help but stare at.
Wedges Worth Noticing
The wedges were textured like snakeskin and featured bright orange spots all over. She had been wearing some fabulous high heels to promote her new film!

Alternative Style Suggestions
If you want an alternative, here’s another style that we like. These sandals from Pollini are currently on sale at Farfetch. They’re woven in design and feature 13-centimeter-high heels. Will these be good enough as a proxy?
