Pointy pumps, platform ankle booties, sky-high over-the-knee heeled boots – fall’s footwear forecast is definitely leaning towards the sexy side, for the most part. But in the midst of collecting all your hard-to-walk-in statement-making shoes for the season ahead, make sure to leave room for some sensible and stylish flats! Menswear details are still very much on-trend, and this season, we’re loving the tasseled loafer look. Tassels give the tried-and-true smoking slipper trend a much-needed fall update (not to mention an added dose of personality and whimsy), along with stylish textures like leopard print, soft suede, and shiny metallic satin. Comfortable yet still totally cute, these no-nonsense flats pair perfectly with anything from slacks and skirts to jeans and sweater dresses. Peep some of my favorite fall styles in the links below!
