The Shoe Trend Every It Girl Will Wear This Fall

When she’s not working with big names like Lupita Nyong’o, Jennifer Hudson, and Hilary Swank, celebrity stylist Micaela Erlanger also divulges her fashion expertise in our Ask a Stylist column. From the best places to source vintage to the secret to finding your most flattering jeans, come back each week for a professional’s perspective.
Although summer has just begun, fall footwear is already on my mind. With the new season a few short months away, it also means boot season is right around the corner. If you’re like me, I’m sure you’re looking to update your closet for the new season before all your friends do. The first shoe style I’m adding to my fall wardrobe is a pair of sleek sock boots. The style is universally flattering and easily slips under your favorite cropped jeans so that you can hold on to every last a hint of summer and still look fresh for the cooler months ahead. I’m particularly eyeing Stuart Weitzman’s Clinger boots in white—the fresh style lends a cool look for the new season.
