6 Fall Shoe Trends You Need to Know
So we are in fall, but I want to still share some of my favorite and trendiest fall shoes. In September, we all get excited for the change of season, well, if you hate the heat, that is.
I find summer not to be so much about fashion unless you are going on a fun vacation. There are not many things you can do with summer shorts and flip-flops.
With fall, you can be that girl because it’s the season of experimenting with fresh fashion ideas. This year, fall is serving major energy in the shoes department.
We’re talking statement soles, vintage throwbacks, and styles that make every outfit feel instantly cooler. Whether you’re a “coffee-in-hand, oversized-sweater” kind of person or someone who loves turning the sidewalk into a mini runway, these fall shoe trends are about to be your new personality trait.
Loafers/Oxfords/Mary Janes
Many women love these, especially during the fall season. These are closed-toe shoes but with many different shapes and designs. These are also like the preppy schoolgirl aesthetic.
Oxford is a timeless choice for fall, as it is structured and offers a gender-fluid look. These look great with straight-leg trousers, they also look well with a pleated skirt and mid calf dress.
Women’s loafers are another popular choice, with many varieties that look amazing with a cute miniskirt, tennis skirt, jeans, and socks and skirt combo. Mary Jane has been remodeled for adult fashion-forward women. You can go preppy with these or mix with edge, such as a leather piece as a jacket.
