The 4 Best Boot Trends, Per the Designer Who's Sold 100 Million+ Pairs of Shoes

For me, considering what to buy is a juggling act where I try to balance quality, style, and price. Sometimes my impulsivity wins and I splurge, but usually, I land on brands like Schutz, which is adept at translating the biggest trends into more affordable, wearable versions. Win-win. 

Having been in the shoe business for over two decades, I thought Schutz founder Alexandre Birman (who also runs his eponymous brand) would be the perfect person to tap for insights on the biggest fall boot trends of 2020. "Knee-high boots are always popular with the Schutz customer," Birman pointed out. "I love the Maryana Boot because of its versatility. You can wear it with anything from jeans to dresses." 

In addition to talking trends, Birman also revealed that Schutz has shifted to an even lower price point model while still maintaining the same quality—music to my ears. Plus, "moving forward the collections will include more leisure and casual styles to support the changing lifestyles of our customers," the press release explained. Makes sense to me. Scroll down to shop the four fall boot trends Birman thinks will make it big.

"I believe we will see a lot of combat boots this season, as we have noticed a shift in our customer's interest to flat and lower-heeled footwear since the beginning of quarantine. We reacted by shifting our focus to leisure and casual, and in September launched our low pricing initiative to make collections more accessible and support the changing lifestyles of the Schutz customer. We lowered our price point yet maintained Schutz's level of craftsmanship and quality. Two of my favorite styles from our new fall collection are the Moly and Zayane boots."
"Every woman needs a classic pair of white boots in their closet. The Bette Booties are chic and can be worn all year long, season to season."
"Knee-high boots are always popular with the Schutz customer. I love the Maryana Boot because of its versatility—you can wear them with anything from jeans to dresses. Whether you're having a socially distanced date night or at home with friends, these are the perfect boots!"
In place of the style of sock boots that surged circa 2018, this new version has a knit sock detail at the top of the boot, while the rest of the shoe is leather. "Now more than ever, women are prioritizing comfort when shopping for footwear. We made comfort a priority when designing the Cheryl Booties. The knit ankle and chunky heel allow the Schutz customer to be comfortable while also showcasing their personal style."

Next, my WFH desk is nothing without these four beauty products handy

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
