Peep my closet, and you’ll immediately notice that I tend to overindulge in the shoe department. Some may call this a problem, but I call it research. Sneakers, wedges, ankle boots—you name it, and I’ve tested it. After all, I’m here to tell you what’s in and what’s out. (It’s all part of the job description, right?) This season, my colleagues and I have noticed a few key footwear trends on both the runways and the street style set. And between Western-inspired boots and bold pink platforms, the shoe game has never looked better. Fortunately for us, Zappos‘s collection of Steve Madden shoes makes it easy to shop these trends. Steve Madden has long been a go-to brand for stylish footwear at accessible price points, and this season is no exception. Keep scrolling for 16 on-trend pairs you can shop now—plus the apparel to complete your perfect fall look.
It doesn’t matter where you live—if you don’t own a pair of Western boots, take this as your sign to invest. Fashion people have been pairing these with everything from maxi slip dresses to matching suit sets. They’re surprisingly versatile and will make your outfits that much more interesting.
Whether you’re back to school or back to the office, this footwear trend is made for you. Swapping any shoe for a mule, Mary Jane, or loafer is sure to elevate even the most casual look. All three styles are having a moment, so you can’t go wrong with any of these options.
You can’t scroll through IG without seeing a post of someone wearing these already iconic pink platforms. It looks like this trend is here to stay, so it’s time to embrace the pop of pink and move your autumnal neutrals to the back of your closet.
Between moto detailing and platform heels, the average black boot has gotten quite the makeover this season. Editors are turning toward more interesting variations of this wardrobe staple, and these four Steve Madden options will help you do the same.
