Hi everyone and Welcome to the The Code of Style Magazine., and this article about “Fall Shoe Trends” for the effortlessly cool girl who wants to combine casual chic with comfort and originality.
As we move into Fall, it’s time to switch out our sandals for some autumn appropriate footwear. However, given the current “Covid” situation, we would be crazy to think that this season’s trends will be the same as last year’s!
With many of us working from home and spending more time in the outdoors, the 2020 Fall shoes place the emphasis clearly on those made for comfort and the high-heeled stilettos are being confined to the closet for the time being!
From Prada’s waterproof wellies to Gucci’s loafers, we scoured the runways for the biggest fall shoe trends, and this season there is something for everyone’s taste from chain details, statement bows, brightly colored boots, OTK boots, all-white boots, metallics and florals, chunky lug soles through to furry footwear. But there is no need to trade comfort for style as we can have it all!

Chunky Soles and Urban Chic
Chunky platform soles, flatforms, and sneakers are the perfect choice to offset more feminine pieces and were seen on the runways in classic neutrals, florals, metallics and in bold pops of color as well as in a variety of fabrics such as leather, suede, and rubber.
