The fall is one of my favorite times of year. I love to see the leaves change color along with pumpkins, mums and hay bales everywhere. There's crispness in the air and the smell of fireplaces in the evening. As fall arrives, the sandals, flip-flops and shorts get put away and the fall and winter shoes and clothes come in.
Each fall I find it exciting to see the new trends; the colors, styles and textures that will dominate the industry. Some of the trends continue in popularity from the previous year, while others are new looks.
This year, gray is one of the hottest colors. In all different hues, from the softest dove gray to the deepest charcoal, it's showing up everywhere. I've seen boots, Mary Janes, and ballet flats all in gray as well as many different textures including patents, suede's, satins and the list goes on...
Metallic's, such as gold, silver and bronze are very popular and found in many different designer shoe lines, from the soft brushed gold to complete shine. I've seen some adorable ballet flats in soft gold and of course plenty of sexy metallic sling back evening sandals.
Mary Janes are one of my favorites, but Mary Janes in black patent leather are my favorite! I like both the rounded and pointed toe but I prefer the rounded just a bit more. I especially like the look of the cap toe. Suede pumps with patent leather cap toes are one of the many other possible combinations of materials and they have such a sophisticated look.
Classic styles are getting a bit of a twist with an exotic flair of animal prints along with embossed leather crocodile and snake. Animal prints are often being paired with black or brown leather.
Satins shoes have of course been dazzling for years. Some simple, others adorned with jewels. Black always seems to be a popular choice for its sophistication. Red satin, while sophisticated as well, has a true "wow" factor.
Fortunately, getting the latest fall trends doesn't have to break the bank. For the most part, shoe styles can be found at prices that are on the less expensive end to very costly. Checking local as well as online stores can help get the look you want for the price you can afford.
