The Evidence Is Clear: These 6 Shoe Trends Are Set for Fashion Stardom
Gearing up for the inevitable cold weather is like preparing for battle—you've got to be well equipped. Arguably one of the most important categories to be on the lookout for in the midst of a seasonal wardrobe refresh is shoes; from leg-warming boots to cozy flats, it's not an area you want to skip once fall and winter weather rears its ugly head. And while the runways have provided plenty of interesting takes on which shoes to wear this season, we've noticed six big trends, in particular, we seemingly can't escape.
Between our feeds and IRL encounters, these six shoe trends are primed for stardom (which if you're in the market for new seasonal staples is something you'll likely want to consider.) This grouping of rising styles includes everything from simple, pared-down flats a la The Row, to statement-making animal prints that virtually go with everything. Keep reading below to check them all out and to get your fall footwear collection in order.
If there's a shoe you never have to think twice about, it's a minimalist flat. This year, the styles we're noticing are more pared-down and sleeker than ever, ditching flashy metal details in favor of simple silhouettes with sumptuous materials like supple suede and leather.Tall boots have never been "out" per see, but they're making a recent comeback in a way we can't ignore. Just below the knee seems to be the sweet spot for a wearable boot that's both elegant and versatile. Another observation? Creamy, neutral shades of beige are IT for fashion folks.The coziest of the bunch, shearling shoes are in for a big crescendo this fall. You can go easy with it, opting for shearling-lined sandals and mules (like our favorite Who What Wear pair below), or go all in with shearling-covered flats. Right now this pair of shearling loafers are first up on our shopping checklist. If you're into coordinating accessories, fuzzy shearling bags are also a hot commodity.If you love sleek footwear with an edge, look no further than the square toe. This silhouette has been a favorite of the fashion crowd for years now, and it's only getting stronger from here. While super blunt square toe shapes are rising, we love the softer take of a slighty rounded edge.On the more dramatic side of things lies the animal print trend, and at this point, it's fair to consider this a full-fledge neutral. It's pretty much a consistent player when it comes to fall trends, so you can be sure that whichever pair your buy will feel fresh season after season.It may sound counterintuitive to be focusing on sandals so late in the season, but gorp-y sandals are still a big factor when it comes to fall trends. Lately, we've been noticing them mixed with heavier jackets and maxi skirts as a transitional piece to segway into fall. To make them adaptable to the cooler weather go for rich fabrics like black suede, or brown croc—you can also always go for a shearling-lined pair to keep things cozy too.
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...

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...
