1. A ballet flat, because balletcore is taking over TikTok and the easiest way to fall into this trend without buying a whole new wardrobe worth of clothing is by throwing on a classic pair of ballet flats.
2. A heeled bootie for turning any daytime outfit into a going-out look. Flowing dress? Jeans and a tee? Pleated skirt and a button down? These booties will go with practically any outfit!
3. A lace-up "duckie" boot that you can pair with leggings and wool socks during those rainy fall days where you just want to stay at home, but need to head out the door for class or work!
4. A pair of platform loafers that are spot-on dupes for a designer version but are just as chic and cozy (without dropping some serious coin!).
5. A low-top sneaker that is perfect if you are all for comfort that doesn't skip out on style. Sure, you can wear these with a classic jeans-and-tee 'fit, but why not try pairing them with a flowing dress and moto jacket for an edgier look?
6. A woven sandal so that you can enjoy the warm and deep rust tones that go hand-in-hand with fall while still wearing shoes that are appropriate for those of you who are experiencing that summer-like autumn weather.
7. A Western boot to bring some yeehaw vibes to your 'fit without sacrificing your love of fall colors. FYI: Not every cool outfit has to be all black!
8. A fuzzy slip-on clog because clogs are reigning supreme this autumn Plus, these have a memory foam insole, which is much cozier from the get-go than a traditional wooden clog.
9. A platform Chelsea boot that's screaming your name if you want to spice up your fall weather downtown-chic aesthetic.
10. A platform open-toe mule to slip on some ~groovy~ vibes when you're feeling that '70s-leaning vintage style. The chunky heel is the perfect complement to any pair of flare pants and a ruffle top when you're heading to a hip rooftop dinner with friends.
11. A cozy hiking boot, because there's nothing like feeling the fall foliage crunching under your shoes. AND there's nowhere better to see the beautiful colors of fall than while hiking through the woods.
12. A pair of cushiony sneakers so that you can have a pair of reliable shoes for running errands, walking the dog, or even just doing chores around the house. And as a bonus, they look ultra cute! How can you go wrong?!
13. A lace-up platform boot, because the indie-sleaze style is back, courtesy of TikToker's who are discovering old-school millennial Tumblr blogs. Wear these with tights and a bodycon dress for a look that'll bring you back to 2012 (in an amazing way).
14. A pair of rainboots with interchangeable tassels so that you can keep your feetsies warm and dry while leveling up your city-chic, rainy-day outfits.
15. A cozy, strappy, sherpa sandal for those who love their Birks, and want to wear the style into the cooler season, too! I mean, you might as well wear things this comfy and cute during all those back-to-back Zoom meetings.
16. A pair of quilted slip-on sneakers so that you can quickly throw your shoes on and run out the door during busy weekday mornings (while still looking as fashionable as ever, of course).
