5 Fall Shoe Trends That You Can Wear Now

We know it’s hard to think about fall when the temperature is still blazing hot BUT fall is on the horizon. Soon the leaves will start to change and it will cool off and that will be your signal that it’s time to start thinking about transitioning your wardrobe for fall. (Cue the sad music here as we put our Birkenstock sandals away for the season.)

Where to begin? One of the best places to start is with your footwear. Fortunately, you don’t have to wait until the new season to start wearing these trending styles. Here are five fall shoe trends that you can wear now.

Ballet Flats

The popularity of balletcore continues into fall with the ballet flat. With its timeless design, the ballet flat effortlessly combines comfort and style. Look for a modern spin on the classic ballet flat with hybrid styles. One such style is the ballet flat slingback, which features a secure strap around the ankle for a secure fit, added support, and a touch of sophistication. Some other ballet flat hybrids are the ballerina platform, ballerina Mary Jane, and the ballerina sneaker.

If adding flair is your goal, opt for a pair with straps or embellishments. Pair them with cropped jeans and a cozy sweater for a casual yet put-together look, or style them up with a flowy midi skirt and a blouse for a dressier look. The versatility of ballet flats makes them the ideal footwear choice for almost any occasion. No matter how you wear them, these ballet flats were meant to be seen.

Loafers

If you’re looking for a comfortable, versatile, and stylish shoe, look no further than the loafer. Loafers have become a fashion staple over the last few seasons. These stylish shoes are here to stay! Loafers are comfortable and versatile, making them a great addition to your fall footwear line-up.

Originally designed as a slip-on shoe for men, loafers are available in a variety of styles, colors, prints, and materials. They can be styled with jeans or a suit, and even paired with dresses and skirts. Whether you’re doing your everyday thing or attending a formal event, loafers have proven to be a stylish and practical investment.

Statement Heels

Reach new heights in the most eye-catching heels ever! That’s the goal. Statement heels are shoes with heels that feature a unique shape, logos, bold colors, and eye-catching embellishments. From chunky heels to stilettoes, statement heels come in a variety of styles. You can find them in bright neon colors, animal prints, metallic finishes, and even adorned with jewels and pearls.

These heels are all about making a bold statement. So whether you’re going to a party, a work function or just out for a night on the town, style your look with a pair of statement heels and prepare for all the second glances.

Cowboy Boots

Blame it on summer’s cool coastal cowgirl trend if you must but cowboy boots are showing no signs of slowing down. Originally designed for cowboys to wear while working on ranches, cowboy boots have become a popular fashion statement.

Cowboy boots are typically made of leather and feature intricate stitching, embroidery, and other decorative details. For fall, look for cowboy boots in a variety of styles, from the classic western boot to more modern variations.

Shearling

With their super cozy and fluffy teddy texture, shearling adds a touch of comfort and luxury to your fall footwear arsenal. Whether you’re running errands or dressing up for a night out, shearling shoes are the perfect accessory to add some extra to your look.

Shearling shoes are made with a soft and fuzzy material that lends warmth and comfort to your feet. Look for shoes with shearling to show up not only on the inside of shoes but on the outside as trim or completely covered.
