    8 Fall Shoe Micro-Trends the Cool Girls Are Already Wearing

    If you’re someone who makes it their mission to know all of the fashion-insider trends each season, I’m pleased to offer my assistance. Given that it’s September, fall shoes are top of mind right now, and if you’re bored with the mainstream trends and want to dig a little deeper, there’s a handful of more under-the-radar fall shoe trends that the coolest dressers are already starting to wear—perhaps yourself included.

    Shoe micro-trends are defined by features that can be as specific as a type of fabric, the shape of a heel, the embossing on the leather, and the embellishment.

Keeps scrolling to shop your favorites.
