        Elongated toe boxes have silently dominated this year’s trend cycles, and this “weird girl” essential takes a haute turn when combined with a kitten heel. The sharpness is twofold\u2014featuring a teeny heel and a razor-thin pointed toe\u2014all in a sleek design line that feels truly fresh. Try combining this silhouette with a textural trend, like snakeskin or suede.\n<\/p>\n

          On the other hand, brand strategist and stylist Jessie Frances describes fall’s overarching footwear trends as a fashion “free for all”: Each silhouette has a range of en vogue<\/em> style designs. That includes slouchy boots, which already hold a beloved place as an early aughts precursor to today’s classic knee-high and riding boots. Most of today’s styles lean into either subtlety or drama, be it a slight slouch at the ankle or voluminous silhouettes.\n<\/p>\n

            While Frances already regards animal print as neutral, snakeskin textures can work to make an outfit pop. Switch up this tried-and-true print with a hint of fiery orange\u2014vibrant snakeskin is especially trend-forward this fall\u2014or a subdued palette of neutrals.\n<\/p>\n

              Fall’s best styles are highly textural, and that includes suede accessories. While this famously finicky fabric isn’t known for its practicality, it does pack a boho punch as footwear. For better longevity through the winter months, invest in a high-quality protective spray.\n<\/p>\n

                Nature tones for fall? Groundbreaking. While rich shades of cocoa and hazelnut make an appearance every autumn, DSW senior fashion and trends director Regina Popp recommends diving further into full-bodied chocolates with monochromatic footwear. “Brown boots are a must-have this fall, whether it’s rich chocolate brown suede or cool rub-off leather,” she tells Byrdie.\n<\/p>\n

                Among our favorites? A gold-accented pair of Larroud\u00e9 booties, and a sartorially delicious style from the independent (and internet-loved) designer Miista.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n

                  Indie sleaze has reentered the chat. As soft, flowy fabrics dictated our end-of-summer wardrobes\u2014guided by Chlo\u00e9, under creative director Chemena Kamali’s vision\u2014we’ll need accessories that ramp up the contrast heading into fall. Tough, chunky-heeled boots (adorned with a collection of industrial accents) add some edge to otherwise romantic ensembles.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n

                  “In the ’70s, you had an era of two extremes: the rebellious and romantic,” Frances tells Byrdie. “Now, we’re seeing a fusion, as\u00a0people are feeling that you don’t have to choose.”<\/p>\n

                    Many of the season’s best activities (think pumpkin patch excursions and winery weekend trips) call for hardier footwear. Whether you select a classic Hunter boot or a short Chelsea style, these mud-proof designs are ready for whatever the season brings. Plus, Popp confirms that tall boots in any style remain a timeless yet sharply on-trend addition to any shoe rack.\n<\/p>\n

                      The Cowboy Carter<\/em> tour cemented the Western trend for the summer, but Frances assures us these aesthetics are still alive and well\u2014and now, they’re more wearable than ever. From ankle-length cowboy boots to maximalist butterfly details, this rough-and-tumble aesthetic is taking a showgirl approach this season.\n<\/p>\n
