The Rankings
Mango Slingback Leather Shoes
IRREGULAR HEELS: This isn't the first season irregular heels have graced the runways, but this time, we have a feeling they're here to stay. Now that fast-fashion brands have begun to produce their own affordable versions of the style, they've become a lot more accessible. Our pick from Mango features a subtle geometric heel that's ideal for easing into the trend.
Free People Dakota Heel Boot
SLOUCHY BOOTS: Forget everything you know about the slouchy boots of the 2000s, because these are not them. The likes of Isabel Marant, Marc Jacobs, and Celine sent slouchy boots of all shapes and sizes down the runways, and they're back and better than ever. Pair them with a skinny jean (also back and better than ever) to offset the bulky silhouette.
Loeffler Randall Tyler Caged Sandals
CAGE DETAILS: Trendy and conveniently supportive. Our pick comes in a fun key lime color that we also expect to make big strides this fall.
Topshop Honour Pointed Toe Western Boot
WESTERN BOOT: Western boots have been gaining ground for a few seasons now, and they're also one of the most wearable trends on the runway. Pair them with floral dresses to effortlessly transition your summer staples into the fall.
Sophia Webster Rosalind Gem Sandals
EMBELLISHMENTS: We don't like to play favorites, but the revival of the embellished shoe trend is one we can't get enough of. Luxe details like crystals, beads, and sequins have the ability to take your most basic pieces from boring to beautiful in a heartbeat.
Botkier Pina Pump
TOP STRAPS: Crazy how the addition of a little top-strap can breathe brand new life into an ordinary kitten heel. Think of these as the big-girl version of your elementary-school-era Mary Janes.
Stuart Weitzman Merinda Sandal
ANKLE WRAPS: From Zimmerman to Balenciaga, ankle wraps were huge on F/W '19 runways. Opt for a barely-there silhouette like these beauties from Stuart Weitzman—they'll be a go-to for nights on the town.
Nike Air Max 95 Premium
CHUNKY SOLES: Chunky soles have been a controversial trend for a few years now, but according to this season's runways, they're not going anywhere. This pair can add interest to the simplest outfits (check out that pretty pink shade!), and they're cozy to boot.
Staud Billie Croc-Effect Leather Wedge Mules
SQUARE TOES: In case you missed the memo, round toes are so 2000 and late. From booties to sandals to slingback flats, a polished square toe can add instant sophistication to any everyday look.
Loeffler Randall Penny Knot Mules
TEXTURES: Adding some unique textures—a.k.a. satin, metallic leathers, foil, PVC—into your shoe rotation can majorly amp up your daily ensembles. The Carrie Bradshaw in us all is head-over-heels for this trend, and even more specifically, these stunners.
