If there's one easy way to give your outfit an of-the-moment look, it's with a trending new pair of shoes. I always find the change in season to be the perfect opportunity to invest in a chic new style and reinvigorate my wardrobe. As we approach fall, I'm particularly looking for the shoe trends that will add a luxurious touch to my looks.
So what sumptuous styles do we have to look forward to this upcoming season? I looked to the fall/winter 2025 runways to bring you seven wearable styles that will reign supreme once the temps start to cool. From chic pumps to luxe-looking satin, these shoes will make every ensemble look altogether elegant and on-trend. The best part? You don't have to spend designer prices to get the look. In fact, I've scoured the market and found all the biggest fall 2025 shoe trends for under $150.
Chic Pumps
Elegant pumps were all over the F/W 25 runways, from Saint Laurent to Prada. While they're a classic style, we're seeing fresh iterations for autumn—including some with details like bows and exotic finishes.

Sumptuous Suede
It comes as no surprise to see sumptuous suede shoes back in the spotlight for fall 2025. From trendy sneakers to loafers and boots, the luxe-looking fabric will elevate every fall outfit.

Peep Toes
We saw peep-toe shoes gain momentum in the spring/summer 2025 collections, and the silhouette shows no signs of slowing down for fall, thanks to designers such as Miu Miu, Tory Burch, and Fendi who featured them heavily in their collections. Take your pick of cutout shapes and toe placements this season.

Satin
Satin shorts, camisoles, and dresses have taken center stage in our wardrobes this summer, and for fall, our shoes are now getting the satin treatment. The fabric oozes luxe vibes, and we'll be seeing it on sleek pumps, heeled sandals, and adorned with pretty details such as bows.

Exotic Finishes
From animal prints to expensive-looking pony hair and mock-croc fabrics, footwear with exotic finishes is gearing up to be one of this season's most luxe-looking shoe trends.

Brown Knee-High Boots
When it comes to buying boots, you can't go wrong with a beautiful brown knee-high pair—as spotted all over the runways from Fendi to Ralph Lauren and Chanel. Every shade of the brown color palette is fair game, whether you go for chocolate, coffee, tan, or espresso. As for the silhouettes? Try a pull-on style, riding boots, skintight sock boots, or slouchy ones.

Derbies and Brogues
The fall/winter 2025 runways presented a whole host of derby shoes and brogues, worn with everything from traditional tailoring to satin evening gowns. When you're tired of your loafers and ballet flats, the classic style will add just the right polished flair.
