Although fall is best known as boot season, wearing the heavy (and most likely heeled) option on the regular can not only be tiring on the feet, it is not always the best style choice. Luckily, flats now come in more stylish variations than the classic commuter roll-up stashed in your tote. This season, there are plenty of flat-soled items that are not only a comfortably chic option for long days at the office, but just as good for long nights out on the town, too.
The season’s best come as loafers, ballerinas, mules, and Mary Janes in suedes, croc-stamped leathers, and houndstooth print—there’s even a pair with built-in fishnet socks. A glitter-encrusted slipper from Polly Plume is an easy choice for a holiday soiree (complete with a bow on top), while Malone Souliers’s pointed-toe velvet-mesh mules are the flirty shoe you need for date night. Never know what to wear on the weekends? Leave your dad sneakers behind and opt for a starch white loafer to elevate any casual Saturday look. Re/Done’s collaboration with Weejuns is the perfect pair for instant effortless style—and bonus points for a cropped pant and a cute sock sighting.
