If seasons were defined by a shoe shape, autumn would almost always be the pointed-toe shoe. With an undoubtedly witchy essence, there’s no season more apt for pointed toes than when the leaves drop from their branches, halloween is around the corner, and the weather presents both sunny days and overcast afternoons in any given week.
A sharp contrast to the soft, rounded-toe styles that have dominated the spring and summer months in the form of delicate ballet flats and classic loafers, pointed-toe shoes are remerging as autumn’s footwear style of choice. Influencers and celebrities have begun to gravitate towards sleek slingbacks and pointed-toe boots, favouring them for evenings out or wearing them in lieu of sandals as the weather begins to change.
