Shopbop is offering an extra 25% off all sale styles with the code EXTRA25 through June 5, so I decided to go through the markdowns to see the highlights. First, I started by searching for a few of the retailer's popular brands: Peachy Den, Sandy Liang, and St. Agni. My favorites were the Peachy Den Elise Stripe Top, Sandy Liang Fishers Skirt, and St. Agni Wool Strapless Cocoon Dress.

Next, I went to shoes and immediately found wedges—an understated pair from Veronica Beard and hot-pink ones Stuart Weitzman—depending on what you're into. Tory Burch's Runway Ballet Flats are on sale for just under $150, and Ancient Greek Sandals' Jelly Flip Flops are $84.

Other top items include Cecilie Bahnsen's Cosmos Sneakers, Completedworks' Beaded Necklace, Courrèges's Naplack Holy Bag, Liffner's Dome Bag, Julietta's Donna Necklace, Jil Sander's Goji Pillow Handle Small Bag, Nia's La Brea Dress, and Reformation's Madeline Sleep Dress.

Ahead, I pulled 15 standouts so you don't have to scroll through thousands of products.

Working in fashion, it's second nature for editors to find (and share) affordable alternatives to investment pieces whenever we come across them. Often, retailers including Banana Republic, COS, Gap, and J.Crew are editor favorites for these types of timeless items. For example, associate fashion editor Nikki Chwatt covered how a pair of $98 J.Crew pants closely resemble Leset's Kyoto pants. She's talked about how Nordstrom's $50 kitten-heel sandals mimic Hailey Bieber's Toteme ones as well.

I've also written about how Tony Bianco Gatsby loafers remind me of The Row's Soft Loafers. There are also other widely loved options, such as Madewell Greta flat for The Row Ballet Flat, and Gap's 100% Cotton Oversized Sweater as a budget-friendly option for the Ophelia Sweater.

Most recently, when I was eyeing a pair of sold-out Manolo Blahnik Callamu 50 mules, I naturally started looking for something similar. I ended up getting the now also sold-out Stuart Weitzman Minimalist 50 sandal, but have since also come across Aeyde's Black Vero Leather Mules, too.

Below, shop these and more lower-cost options inspired by popular capsule wardrobe staples.

If you're looking for an excuse to go shoe shopping, I recommend Nordstrom's winter sale. If I could only buy one pair across all of the discounts, I'd choose the Stuart Weitzman Minimalist Slide 50 Sandals.

In the boot selection, there are highlights such as Vince's Harlan Knee-High Boots, Tony Bianco's Fantasy Knee-High Boots, and Frye's Kate Block Heel Boots.

There are plenty of standout heels too. Tory Burch has a leopard-printed colorway of the Double T Buckle Pointed-Toe Pumps. As I scrolled, it was my first time seeing heeled loafers from G.H.Bass, the Penny Loafer Pumps. Mansur Gavriel's Ballerina Kitten Heel Pumps are chic as well, and the espresso suede iteration is almost sold out.

For flats, you'll find styles from one of my all-time favorite brands, Camper, along with options from Mansur Gavriel, and the sneaker section has markdowns on popular brands such as Salomon, Nike, Adidas, and Keen.

Ask any celebrity about their favorite red carpet shoes, and you're bound to hear one brand over and over again: Stuart Weitzman. Honestly, which A-lister doesn't own a pair? Ubiquitous in Hollywood, the label could’ve chosen to partner with any one of its many high-profile fans, but Stuart Weitzman made an exceptionally smart choice in Emma Chamberlain. Thanks to her down-to-earth personality, she has a unique ability to connect with fashion lovers who see her as not just an industry insider but also their most stylish friend.

Today, Chamberlain has been revealed as Stuart Weitzman's new global ambassador and star of its fall 2025 campaign—a match made in fashion heaven. "I got introduced to Stuart through my stylist, Jared Ellner," Chamberlain told Who What Wear. "He started putting me in Stuart's heels for red carpet events. It's been our go-to for both basic shoes and exciting, fun shoes that spice up the outfit. We've done it all with Stuart. That relationship was so genuine and so organic. I couldn't have even imagined that we're working together now—it's a dream. It was truly an organic discovery of a brand, which I think is rare in this industry. So it's always cool when that happens." Scroll down to see Chamberlain's latest campaign and read our full Q&A.

I love how the knee-high boots were styled with long shorts in the campaign. What's your favorite way to style knee-high boots IRL?

I actually really do love long shorts IRL. It was funny because I literally wore an almost identical outfit to the set. I wore long black shorts and a white tank top. But a boot is great to elevate that look. I also love doing a tall boot with a long skirt. I like not being able to see ankles. Very elevated, very chic. That's sort of my go-to. I absolutely love that look, and it never fails.

Some people struggle with nailing the proportions when styling boots. Do you always avoid having a gap between the bottom of your skirt and the top of your boots, like you mentioned?

I try not to have too many rules. Sometimes something I thought went against my fashion philosophy will end up being cool, so I try not to box myself in as much these days. But I will say for the most part, I don't usually like to have the ankle exposed. I think that covering the top of the boot tends to look the nicest. But that doesn't mean it's always the right answer, you know?

There's a pair of ankle-ish boots in this collection. I tend to wear those with long pants. You're not going to see the top of ankle boots under long pants, which is nice, whereas a taller boot might poke through the pants. However, wearing a knee-high boot with a little miniskirt is so cute and quite trendy.

What are your favorite shoe color trends for fall 2025?

I personally love burgundy, but I think colors are kind of timeless. They might have a moment where they get repackaged and become a trend, but you can always wear a color (unless it's a neon or something). I'm also somebody who just loves a simple black shoe, to be honest. That's what I'm the most excited about. I wear a lot of black these days, especially because my hair is platinum, and I love the way an all-black outfit looks with platinum hair.

What are some specific outfit combos you envision yourself wearing this fall?

I love a long skirt. But I don't mean like to the ankle—a long skirt for me is more like a three-quarter-length skirt cutting off at mid-calf. I'm really gonna be outfit repeating with my long black vintage skirt that goes down to mid-calf with black knee-high boots and a black turtleneck sweater. I'm gonna wear that a thousand times.

I could definitely see myself wearing the little black Stuart Weitzman slingbacks, potentially with a little sock and a skirt or capris, because I live in L.A., and it doesn't get that cold here. My day-to-day personal style is pretty simple when I'm not at events. I just like finding perfect, timeless items. That's where I'm at in my fashion journey right now.

In your opinion, what are the five essential shoe styles everyone should own?

To start, a knee-high heeled boot and an ankle boot. Maybe one of them has a pointed toe and one of them has a rounded toe. Everybody needs those. I would also say a pair of flats. Not necessarily a classic ballet flat with the bow on it but some sort of simple flat. I personally love a black pair—all of these are probably going to be black, but also a pop of red could be really cute as well. Next, some sort of slingback or pump. I think that's really crucial. I also think I would say a simple loafer with a classic thin sole, not a thick sole, for a preppy vibe. That's the classic shape that's the most timeless.

I know you're going to Milan Fashion Week for the Stuart Weitzman event. Can you talk about how you plan your fashion month outfits with your stylist?

It definitely varies. When it comes to something like this Stuart event, we're in a close relationship with the brand, so there's a lot more communication. But when it comes to picking out show outfits, that is a much different process because it's much more chaotic (in the most fun way). We're getting a lookbook, choosing our favorites, and then trying on the outfits in Milan or Paris. We might not really know what we're wearing until a few days before.

But with Stuart and with this particular presentation, it's exciting because we do have a bit more time to source a look and figure out which incredible pair of shoes you want to showcase. A lot of this fashion week stuff happens really fast, so it's nice to be able to really take our time. I just sent my mood board to Jared a few days ago for this particular event, and he's pulling stuff now. I would truly have a mental breakdown if I had to do it all myself.

The Stuart Weitzman fall 2025 campaign is an ode to New York, but I know you live in Los Angeles. Do you dress differently in New York versus L.A.?

That's a good question. Honestly, I don't think I dress too differently. The only difference in New York is that I'm walking a lot, so I'm thinking about comfort. It's very hard for me to get my steps in in L.A. because it's not a walking city. So I'm not thinking about comfort as much in L.A. But in New York, I might be walking a mile and a half to dinner, so I'm not going to be wearing a major heeled boot. I might be doing a little bootie instead, something a little bit lower and more comfy.

But also, I do tend to be more casual in New York. There's a casual coolness and relaxed vibe in New York that I really like, whereas when I'm in Paris, for instance, I want to feel really chic. In New York, it's all about effortless coolness, so that probably does end up making its way into my suitcase. In L.A., I wear a little bit of everything because I have my full closet at my disposal. I live here, so I'm not trying to fit into any sort of vibe.

The day before Sabrina Carpenter’s "Feather” music video breaks the internet, the 24-year-old enters our Zoom call flush with apologies. She’s forgotten to redownload the app after deleting it to save on data (IYKYK), making her a few minutes late. "My phone has been out of storage for like all of eternity,” she declares. After settling into a spot on the floor between her coffee table and sofa—which is currently decorated with an Ariana Grande pillow, a keepsake from her stint as the artist’s opening act on the Dangerous Woman Tour back in 2017—she props her phone up, and we dive into a 90-minute conversation.

During this time, she’s refreshingly open about everything from the proven difficulties that come with growing up in the spotlight and what happens when the internet turns on you to how it feels to experience all of the emotional roller coasters that come with teenhood years later than your friends because you were simply too busy at 15 to join them. Her lyrics often live in the grey zone, leaving her fans to search for breadcrumbs alluding to their meaning or who they’re about, but her ultimate conclusions to my questions are surprisingly black-and-white. "This was the trajectory of my path,” she says. "I can’t change it now.”

Letting past regrets or grudges eat away at her doesn’t exactly fit into Carpenter’s busy schedule, which hasn’t eased up in more than a decade. When I ask the singer-songwriter and actress if she’s had a day off in 14 years, she laughs, saying, "You know, it sounds dramatic if I say no, but definitely not like a super day off.” For Carpenter, keeping her sights firmly set on her next move is precisely what’s gotten her to where she is today. "My brain works in ways where I’m like, ‘Oh, I want to do this. … It’s gonna take a long time … so I [have] to start now,’” she explains. "Even in those moments of free time, I feel like I’m always just visualising something in the future.” It’s this mindset that’s produced five studio albums, two Billboard Hot 100 hits, and three Platinum singles. "It’s a blessing and a curse,” she says. "I would love to be on a boat somewhere, though.”

Even with the heavy workload, nothing can take away the fact that Carpenter is living out her lifelong dreams. "There was never really a question. Music was always the thing as a child that made me feel like I understood more about life,” she says. As for convincing everyone to take her seriously, she attributes that to her conviction. "Not to be the person that brings up their astrology, but I’m a Taurus, and I think that might have something to do with the fact that I’ve always just been very driven. Some people like to call it stubborn. I like to say driven,” she explains.

Unlike other kids who woke up one morning wanting to be a pop star and a doctor or fashion designer or astronaut the next, Carpenter’s interests never varied. "I wouldn’t start things and not finish them. That wasn’t really my MO,” she says. "I ate, slept, [and] breathed singing and would be at the piano all day, or I’d be practicing or doing my warm-ups. Even if I had nothing to do with singing in the coming weeks or months, I would try doing it every day just to practice and get better.” All these years later, I get the impression that Carpenter is still this way—never quite satisfied. "The only way I’ll make it through this is if I never actually fully feel established because I’ll always just keep working,” she adds.

Carpenter was 12 when she first signed with Hollywood Records, a label under Disney Music Group. In addition to granting her the ability to record her own songs and perform them, it meant she’d be sent into boardrooms with men many times her senior telling her about her future. "That was probably the weirder thing that I had to experience from a really young age,” she says. 

Then there was social media, which nobody, Carpenter included, could have predicted would be such a requirement of the job when she started in 2009. Today, she sees it from two sides. "It’s heartwarming if you think about it in the way that it provides togetherness,” she says. "It’s scary if you think about it in the way that you’re like, ‘Oh, people think they know me from videos on the internet.’” For Carpenter, there are ups, and there are "down, down, down, downs” when it comes to social media and the role it plays in her career and personal life. That’s when she reminds herself just how fortunate she is. "I literally get to sing into a microphone. That’s my job,” she says. "It’s everything that I’ve always wanted. I’m really lucky that my childhood thing… I stuck with it, and, you know, we’re hand in hand through this.”

Writing her own songs also contributes to her calm and collected nature and her ability to move past any road bumps that have and will continue to arise as she navigates her life as Sabrina Carpenter: pop star. "I really feel like I disconnect and fall off the face of the Earth [when I’m making music],” she says. It’s through this process that she found her voice and fearless disposition. (She does admit to being "a sarcastic little snippy ass” since, well, forever, which is presumably why she’s never really been walked all over.)

It’s through music that Carpenter is able to turn off from the online world, where everyone has an opinion and heaps of time to share it. "Sometimes, I bang my head against a wall repeatedly,” she says of hate comments online. But at the same time, she can’t harp on them. She adds, "If someone says, ‘Oh, she’s ugly,’ what am I going to do with that? Okay, well, bummer. I have to just move on with my day, regardless of whether you think I’m ugly or not.” Sitting at her piano, no matter what the situation on hand may be, escape and resolution are only a few keys away. "It is so satisfying when you can take a negative situation in your life and turn it into a positive memory with a song,” she says.

As she’s gotten older, her music has evolved—getting more vulnerable and emotion driven. In 2021, the "Nonsense” singer left her longtime label to join Island Records, an organization that she says trusted her vision as an artist first and foremost. "I didn’t sit down with them and go, ‘This is the album that I’m making. It’s called EmaiIs I Can’t Send. It’s very blunt and very forward,’” she explains. "They didn’t know just as much as I was still figuring it out. But they had a lot of faith in what I was creating and let me experiment and create something really special.” 

Because of this freedom, Carpenter was able to speak her truths on the album without all the outside noise. "When you’re worried about [music] appealing to people and making sure that everyone likes it, I don’t know if you make anything that feels authentic,” she says. Putting out the album left Carpenter exposed. "[It is] borderline too personal,” she admits. But not once since its release in 2022, and subsequent deluxe edition that came out earlier this year, has she felt an ounce of regret. Being on the Emails I Can’t Send Tour and hearing the voices of her longtime fans singing along only reassured Carpenter that she’d made the right decision. 

Now, she’s performing those same songs in front of an even larger fan base: Swifties.

In June, Taylor Swift announced the first round of international shows for her record-breaking Eras Tour, revealing Carpenter as her opening act for the Mexico, Argentina, and Brazil dates. Carpenter will also return for Swift’s seven Australia and six Singapore shows. "I’m not gonna say I peed my pants because that sounds really graphic and maybe not sanitary, but I think it really just caught me off guard,” she says of hearing the news. "It was very much a childhood dream come true.” For her tour debut in Mexico City, Carpenter opened her performance with her first-ever YouTube upload, a video of her nine-year-old self singing Swift’s "Picture to Burn,” exhibiting just how long she’s looked up to the 12-time Grammy winner. "I still probably have not processed it if I’m being completely honest with you,” she says. 

The duo first met backstage at a show when Carpenter was 17 years old. "She had her cats with her,” she recalls. (Carpenter herself has two white British shorthairs at home, so their shared love of felines bonded them for life.) "I have older sisters, so if anything, it felt like that type of a relationship.” According to Carpenter, Swift’s support of her music has been significant, but perhaps more impactful has been the "All Too Well” singer’s championing of Carpenter as a human being. "To work with someone [who] cares about you as a person as well as an artist … that’s been the biggest gift for sure,” she says. Carpenter recently released a pared-down version of Swift’s 2012 track "I Knew You Were Trouble” on Spotify, with many on TikTok sharing how the cover made them completely reinterpret the song, a pop hit with deep lyrics. Carpenter chose to cover the track because of how similar the perspective is to "Feather,” the song Carpenter rereleased alongside "I Knew You Were Trouble.” Like her cover, "Feather” got the chilled-out treatment, making them a perfect match. Swift’s reaction to the cover was direct and to the point: "She nailed it.”

Despite her experience performing on the road, touring with Swift is a whole new ball game for Carpenter. "When you’re doing your own shows, you have this assurance [that the audience] is there for you,” she says. "They know the songs, they came to see you, and I feel very lucky in that sense that I’m like, ‘Whoa, I have this crowd of people that dedicated their Friday night to come sing these songs with me.’” On the Eras Tour, however, there’s a little more pressure for Carpenter to work the room. "I go into it with a little bit more excitement, being playful and just really singing and interacting with the crowd as much as I possibly can,” she says. "There’s so many of them—I can’t see them all.”

Her costumes, likewise, contribute to her energy onstage. "I want to feel as confident as humanly possible so I can be up there and not worry about what I’m doing,” she says. "It helps me perform better.” She ended up donning custom Swarovski-crystal minidresses by the Ukrainian brand Frolov, a favorite of Beyoncé for her own shows. She paired the dresses with her signature white go-go boots. "The go-go boots have been there for me in hard times,” she says. 

Fashion played a pivotal role in Emails I Can’t Send, more so than it did in any of her previous albums. "[The record], to me at least, feels like the first album cycle where I really felt like there was a style connection to the music,” she explains. "I haven’t always felt that way in the past because I was young and didn’t know who I was.” By getting to know herself better and finally gaining firsthand experience of the themes she’d long been singing about, everything just clicked. "This theme of hearts [is] sprinkled throughout the music and different visuals,” she says. "It made so much sense to me because [the album] was so deeply surrounded by this infatuation with love and the lack of love and [how it helped to shape] me into the person that I am right now.” Scrolling through her Instagram feed, the symbol is ubiquitous in her looks. "There have been a lot of little heart cutouts,” she says. "I’ve pretty much done it everywhere.”

Her style outside of the album has also seen a shift as she’s learned more about who she is. "The things I feel really confident in now, maybe five years ago I probably would have never worn [them], but that’s the beautiful thing about evolving with fashion,” she says. Though she’s most known for her hyper-romantic aesthetic laced with soft pastel shades, micro hemlines, and ethereal fabrics, Carpenter’s found herself experimenting outside of that look. (Don’t worry—it’s not going away entirely anytime soon.) "I’m constantly exploring and figuring [things] out,” she says. One look at her recent ensembles from Paris Fashion Week—where she wore a runway look from Schiaparelli’s F/W 23 collection to the French couturier’s S/S 24 show and a completely sheer black slip dress to Givenchy—is proof enough of that. 

Her stylist Jason Bolden—whose client list also includes Yara Shahidi, Storm Reid, and Vanessa Hudgens—has contributed significantly to that exploration. The duo first teamed up when Carpenter was just 17 around the same time that her breakout Disney show Girl Meets World wrapped. "The first thing he put me in was a red Loewe dress,” she recalls. "That was so out of left field for me because I don’t think anyone else would have done that at that time in my life.” Just then, she knew he was perfect for the job. "We started with taking some of these more daring fashion risks that I probably would have never seen on the rack and been like, ‘That’s the one for me,’” she says. "He was really good at pushing me in those ways.” They’ve been together ever since through each of her different musical and style eras, collaborating seamlessly to communicate her ever-changing story via clothes. "It sounds so silly to say that so much of my life is the little outfits I wear, but it kind of is,” she says.

Carpenter’s style is but one of many aspects of her life that revolve around music. She launched a second perfume a few months ago—Sweet Tooth: Caramel Dream—which she describes simply as an emotional extension of her music. She’s preparing to head back out on tour with Swift this month, followed by multiple shows on the iHeartRadio Jingle Ball Tour. She is releasing a new holiday EP titled fruitcake on November 17. And yes, she has plans for a sixth album. "There’s definitely more coming,” she says with an air of mystery. Everything she does remains firmly planted in her singular childhood dream. "I sometimes look at that as such a phenomenal thing to think about,” she says. "Why, for some reason, you just have something, this idea in your head when you’re put on this Earth and how it happens, you have no idea, but you have this blind faith and just wake up every day and make it happen.” Perhaps that explains the black-and-white manner in which she deals with those areas of her life that fall outside of her control. When she’s needed it most, music has come through for her, stepping in and helping her overcome every obstacle life’s thrown her way. Why question its powers now?

(Carpenter herself has two white British shorthairs at home, so their shared love of felines bonded them for life.) "I have older sisters, so if anything, it felt like that type of a relationship.” According to Carpenter, Swift’s support of her music has been significant, but perhaps more impactful has been the "All Too Well” singer’s championing of Carpenter as a human being. "To work with someone [who] cares about you as a person as well as an artist … that’s been the biggest gift for sure,” she says. Carpenter recently released a pared-down version of Swift’s 2012 track "I Knew You Were Trouble” on Spotify, with many on TikTok sharing how the cover made them completely reinterpret the song, a pop hit with deep lyrics. Carpenter chose to cover the track because of how similar the perspective is to "Feather,” the song Carpenter rereleased alongside "I Knew You Were Trouble.” Like her cover, "Feather” got the chilled-out treatment, making them a perfect match. Swift’s reaction to the cover was direct and to the point: "She nailed it.”

Despite her experience performing on the road, touring with Swift is a whole new ball game for Carpenter. "When you’re doing your own shows, you have this assurance [that the audience] is there for you,” she says. "They know the songs, they came to see you, and I feel very lucky in that sense that I’m like, ‘Whoa, I have this crowd of people that dedicated their Friday night to come sing these songs with me.’” On the Eras Tour, however, there’s a little more pressure for Carpenter to work the room. "I go into it with a little bit more excitement, being playful and just really singing and interacting with the crowd as much as I possibly can,” she says. "There’s so many of them—I can’t see them all.”

Her costumes, likewise, contribute to her energy onstage. "I want to feel as confident as humanly possible so I can be up there and not worry about what I’m doing,” she says. "It helps me perform better.” She ended up donning custom Swarovski-crystal minidresses by the Ukrainian brand Frolov, a favorite of Beyoncé for her own shows. She paired the dresses with her signature white go-go boots. "The go-go boots have been there for me in hard times,” she says. 

Fashion played a pivotal role in Emails I Can’t Send, more so than it did in any of her previous albums. "[The record], to me at least, feels like the first album cycle where I really felt like there was a style connection to the music,” she explains. "I haven’t always felt that way in the past because I was young and didn’t know who I was.” By getting to know herself better and finally gaining firsthand experience of the themes she’d long been singing about, everything just clicked. "This theme of hearts [is] sprinkled throughout the music and different visuals,” she says. "It made so much sense to me because [the album] was so deeply surrounded by this infatuation with love and the lack of love and [how it helped to shape] me into the person that I am right now.” Scrolling through her Instagram feed, the symbol is ubiquitous in her looks. "There have been a lot of little heart cutouts,” she says. "I’ve pretty much done it everywhere.”

Her style outside of the album has also seen a shift as she’s learned more about who she is. "The things I feel really confident in now, maybe five years ago I probably would have never worn [them], but that’s the beautiful thing about evolving with fashion,” she says. Though she’s most known for her hyper-romantic aesthetic laced with soft pastel shades, micro hemlines, and ethereal fabrics, Carpenter’s found herself experimenting outside of that look. (Don’t worry—it’s not going away entirely anytime soon.) "I’m constantly exploring and figuring [things] out,” she says. One look at her recent ensembles from Paris Fashion Week—where she wore a runway look from Schiaparelli’s F/W 23 collection to the French couturier’s S/S 24 show and a completely sheer black slip dress to Givenchy—is proof enough of that. 

Her stylist Jason Bolden—whose client list also includes Yara Shahidi, Storm Reid, and Vanessa Hudgens—has contributed significantly to that exploration. The duo first teamed up when Carpenter was just 17 around the same time that her breakout Disney show Girl Meets World wrapped. "The first thing he put me in was a red Loewe dress,” she recalls. "That was so out of left field for me because I don’t think anyone else would have done that at that time in my life.” Just then, she knew he was perfect for the job. "We started with taking some of these more daring fashion risks that I probably would have never seen on the rack and been like, ‘That’s the one for me,’” she says. "He was really good at pushing me in those ways.” They’ve been together ever since through each of her different musical and style eras, collaborating seamlessly to communicate her ever-changing story via clothes. "It sounds so silly to say that so much of my life is the little outfits I wear, but it kind of is,” she says.

Carpenter’s style is but one of many aspects of her life that revolve around music. She launched a second perfume a few months ago—Sweet Tooth: Caramel Dream—which she describes simply as an emotional extension of her music. She’s preparing to head back out on tour with Swift this month, followed by multiple shows on the iHeartRadio Jingle Ball Tour. She is releasing a new holiday EP titled fruitcake on November 17. And yes, she has plans for a sixth album. "There’s definitely more coming,” she says with an air of mystery. Everything she does remains firmly planted in her singular childhood dream. "I sometimes look at that as such a phenomenal thing to think about,” she says. "Why, for some reason, you just have something, this idea in your head when you’re put on this Earth and how it happens, you have no idea, but you have this blind faith and just wake up every day and make it happen.” Perhaps that explains the black-and-white manner in which she deals with those areas of her life that fall outside of her control. When she’s needed it most, music has come through for her, stepping in and helping her overcome every obstacle life’s thrown her way. Why question its powers now?

New York Fashion Week is always accompanied by one too many over-the-top outfits (at least for my taste). Sure, it's a great opportunity to experiment in the dressing room, making pairings that you'd normally consider to be too out-there for just any day at the office. But at times, the looks go too far. Then, there are the masters, the people who can style those risqué pieces just right and make their outfits feel both fitting for the occasion and not in need of any editing down. 

One such mastermind is Olivia Wilde (and her stylist Karla Welch), who arrived at the Michael Kors Collection S/S 24 show in Brooklyn this week wearing 2023's most daring trend: hot pants. Minuscule in size but huge in impact, the teeny-tiny shorts that have been popping up all year are shockingly difficult to style in a low-key, approachable manner. Yet that's exactly how I'd describe Wilde's look, which included the brown suede shorts, a matching cashmere sweater, sheer tights, and a floor-length coat, all of which were designed by the man of the hour, Michael Kors. She also added her signature Ray-Ban Wayfarers, of course, and knee-high suede boots from Stuart Weitzman. Just like that, Wilde cracked the code for styling hot pants for fall. Add a maxi coat, tights, and boots, and voilà—a completely wearable way to style bottoms that are only an inch away from being underwear.

In a world of ever-changing trends and aesthetics, more often than not, it's best to stick to the classics. Ironically enough, the classics have turned into summer's hottest trend thanks to the viral "quiet luxury" vibe we just can't get enough of. If there's one summer shoe that fits this aesthetic to a T, it would have to be the legendary espadrille. We know it, we love it, we've probably worn through too many pairs to count, but none compare to Stuart Weitzman's latest iteration. It's the 2023 take on the classic style made with the same high-quality Spanish craftsmanship that the brand is known for. As a New Yorker, I'm personally grateful for the lightweight and comfortable feel of the shoe as well. If I were to give one footwear recommendation for the season ahead, the Stuart Weitzman espadrille has no competition.

But you don't have to take my word for it. Our editorial director, Lauren Eggertsen, knows a thing or two about the best wardrobe investments, and she's cosigning Stuart Weitzman's espadrille with me. "In order to achieve that subtle luxury look, this shoe is a must in any summer wardrobe," she says. "I can dress these espadrilles up or down with ease, which makes them a no-brainer. Investing in the classics is always a good idea, and I'm confident these shoes will never go out of style." Keep scrolling to see the four looks that prove her point featuring summer's favorite espadrilles in every versatile silhouette and colorway.

"These espadrilles are utter magic. They look dressy yet can translate to a casual look at the drop of a hat. They're meticulously crafted from patent leather with the most lightweight woven-jute sole. I love the raffia on the sole paired with the subtle raffia on my bag. That texture really took this look to the next level. They are perfect for more formal summer events like a garden cocktail party or a girls' night, but I can just as easily see them with a pair of black jeans and a simple tank for a slightly more rich-looking, casual daytime outfit." — Lauren Eggertsen, editorial director

"This might be my all-time favorite look of the summer. The dress is so fabulous on its own, but I wanted to add a little more flair and color by tying a bright red sweater around my waist and throwing on a luxe metallic wedge espadrille. These shoes really help this look achieve the 'quiet luxury' aesthetic I was going for. This particular style pairs Stuart Weitzman's iconic Nudist construction with a lightweight and easy-to-wear wedge. They dress my outfit up subtly thanks to the gold hue, and the woven-straw base adds some much-needed texture to the rest of the outfit. I can see myself styling these with everything from black jeans to a cute shorts suit." — Eggertsen

"This is the easiest summer outfit formula ever. A simple black tank and tailored shorts can be worn anywhere from an outdoor lunch date to the office. I paired these strappy, black espadrilles with this look to make it feel special. I love how the shoes and the belt really stand out and help create some strong focal points in the look. Plus, I love that the ankle strap can be adjusted for my own personalized fit. Without the espadrilles, this look would definitely read more casual, but opting for them gave me some height while instantly making me feel more pulled together." — Eggertsen

"I would easily wear this look three times a week everywhere from brunch with friends to a poolside hangout. I'm definitely a heels girl, so when it comes to my espadrille preference, I'll always choose something with a little height. I love this Stuart Weitzman pair in creamy white leather because it instantly elevates my look without sacrificing comfort. It's a lightweight, woven-jute wedge that features this luxe, super-soft, knotted leather detail, the exact kind of neutral shoe you'll end up wanting to wear with everything." — Eggertsen

The thing I look forward to the most when fall is on the horizon is getting to take my boot collection out of hibernation. Whether with a pretty dress, a chunky sweater, or my favorite jeans, boots are a ubiquitous addition to just about all my fall outfits. For many years, great stretch boots have been on rotation in my closet.

Thankfully, not only do this season’s offerings of the popular stretch design come in a variety of heights, but there is also an option for just about every personal style. I rounded up 32 of the best picks online, which include every height, from over-the-knee to ankle to statement thigh-high, and each offers a different take, whether it's in the form of heel height, sole thickness, toe shape, and more. My favorite? Black over-the-knee boots with a lug sole. Scroll on to discover your own top pick for fall below.

No, I don't care who she's dating or if she's anywhere near a trip down the aisle, but I do care that Selena Gomez wore an outfit so pretty that it's positively bridal-worthy. For her 30th birthday dinner at Nobu in Malibu, Gomez wore a white Gucci minidress with something blue in the form of cobalt Manolo Blahnik heels. Naturally, she went all-out for her milestone birthday and chose designer pieces, but you can absolutely recreate the look with lower-priced items. 

Taylor Swift was also at the festivities wearing every L.A. girl's favorite dress brand, Christy Dawn. Specifically, she wore the Lianne Dress in Colorblocked Crimson ($498) and I have a feeling it will sell out rather quickly thanks to T Swift's support. Scroll down to see and shop both outfits.

In Manhattan, nobody cares what you wear. To be quite honest, nobody really notices anything; someone can be walking on their hands in a green tutu through Washington Square Park, and no one looks twice. At a certain point, we all become immune to the varied fashion and personalities that walk the streets around us. While this is a luxury most of the time, like when I’m hungover at the bagel shop and look rather, well, disheveled, sometimes you want people to notice your outfits. I get kind of sad when I spend 40 minutes putting a look together and no one gives a second glance. And yet, whenever I wear this one thing, I always get compliments, and that’s denim.

Whether it be a Canadian tuxedo I stroll into work in, my denim Golden Goose sneakers I wear with just about everything, or a deep-wash jean dress, people always say something. I don’t mean this in a conceited way; it’s honestly just something about the denim that gets people talking. And in New York City, talking can get you pretty far. Plus, sometimes, in one of the biggest cities in the world, it can be lonely. And sometimes, with just one conversation, even if it is just about denim sneakers, you start to feel a little less lonely.

A Week Away star Bailee Madison knows how to curate a cozy wardrobe. 

Madison is a huge fan of Kim Kardashian's Skims and admits that she bought a full set after her best friend convinced her.

"She was like, 'You have to get it. You have to get it.' Sure enough, I finally did, and it's like a cloud. It's so comfortable," she says. 

Madison loves pieces that she can wear all of the time, like one of her favorites from NakedCashmere.

"If I could just live in this I would," she adds. 

She even owns a cardigan from Taylor Swift's merch line for Folklore because she wanted to match the pop icon: "I wanted to twin with her. Who wouldn't?"

We can't argue with that.

Madison has also started collecting statement purses that happen to be designed by her friends. One of her recent acquisitions is a timeless white Longchamp bag.

"I'm now becoming a [handbag] girl because my friends, who are really talented, are sending me pieces of theirs, and I love celebrating them," she says. 

Madison is ahead of the curve when it comes to fall shoe trends. Her black Stuart Weitzman loafers have a special place in her heart—and a good story behind them. 

Ahead of her first trip to the UK, Madison felt like she had to get a good pair of loafers to bring with her, but she forgot to break them in before she landed."Cut to about an hour later, blisters walking all around London," she says.

Don't worry. They're broken in now.

"No blisters, they feel great, and they've got some rain stains on them. I love them," she adds.

Madison also loves to rep her home state of Florida. Most of Madison's siblings went to The University of Florida, so when she spotted a T-shirt with the school's logo on it in an unusual location, she couldn't pass it up.

"I was in the UK again, and my flight was delayed, so I was walking around and stepped into Urban Outfitters, and they had a Gators shirt there," she says.

Madison has even more cozy—and collegiate—items in her closet.

Kate Middleton definitely plays favorites. No, not with her children (that we know of) but with her shoes. She's nothing if not reliable when it comes to her footwear choices for different kinds of occasions. Yes, she'll sometimes throw us for a loop and introduce a new brand or different color into the mix, but overall, her outfits follow certain formulas.

For instance, she loves to color-coordinate her shoes. If she's wearing a green dress, she'll either go matchy-matchy and choose shoes in the exact same hue, or she'll do a tonal look by selecting shoes in a different shade of the same color family. In the same vein, she also likes to match her accessories to her shoes, so if she has a black bag and belt, you can pretty much guess what color her shoes will be. Scroll down to see and shop the rest of Middleton's favorite shoes to wear with dresses. 

1. Color-Coordinated Pointy Pumps

When in doubt, go with color-coordinated shoes like Kate Middleton always does. She either goes for a full monochrome look or chooses shoes in a slightly different shade than her dress for a cool tonal look. 

On Middleton: ARossGirl x Soler Amanda Dress ($434); Asprey clutch bag; Zeen Dazzling Ceramic Drop Earrings ($8); Emmy London shoes

2. Tan Wedges

Kate Middleton's favorite shoes to wear with more casual dresses are undoubtedly her Castañer tan wedges. Specifically, she always wears them with floral short-sleeve midi dresses. She owns versions by Sandro, L.K.Bennett, and others. 

On Middleton: Castañer Carina Espadrilles ($119); Catherine Zoraida earrings

On Kate Middleton: Sandro dress; Castañer Carina Espadrilles ($119)

3. Lace-Up Ankle Boots

Middleton also loves to wear ankle boots with dresses and tights. These L.K.Bennett boots are one of her newest additions, and we have a feeling she'll get plenty of use out of them. 

On Middleton: L.K.Bennett Mollie Boots

On Middleton: Eponine London dress; L.K.Bennett Mollie Boots

4. Knee-High Boots

For chillier weather, the Duchess of Cambridge's outfit formula is simple: midi dress and coat of the same length plus knee-high suede boots. If it ain't broke, why fix it?

Singer-songwriter Kacey Musgraves kicked off 2019 with a bang, earning six Grammys in February for her album, Golden Hour. Fortunately, Musgraves's momentum was just picking up; the "Butterflies" singer has parlayed her award-winning success into an extremely epic year, including her own Oh, What a World tour, several festival appearances, her memorable Met Gala debut, and the upcoming Kacey Musgraves Christmas Show holiday special premiering on Amazon next week.

Of course, the 30-year-old Texas native used her long-awaited turn in the spotlight not only to experiment with fashion but also to hone her A-list look with help from stylist Erica Cloud. With a year spent wearing It designers from Adam Selman to Zimmerman and Brian Atwood to Giuseppe Zanotti, it's safe to say that Musgraves is heading into the next decade a certified fashion favorite.

As quickly as the trend cycle moves these days, there are certain pieces that have moved out of the trend category and into the staple category. From a leather jacket to Levi's classic 501 jeans, certain items have withstood the coming and going of trends and can now be officially considered timeless. This also rings true in the shoe department. For example, Stuart Weitzman's Nudist Heels are no longer reserved strictly for red carpets.

In the boot department, there are quite a few styles that have also achieved this status and are now viewed as timeless—iconic, if you will. From the classic ankle boots that can be worn with everything to the combat boots almost every celebrity on the planet owns, below are the four pairs of everyday boots that everyone should have in their wardrobe. 

Sam Edelman Petty Boots

The OG ankle boots that go with everything from jeans to dresses have reached icon status. Virtually every fashion girl has owned these at some point in their life (and probably still does), and they show no sign of fading. The low block heel gives you just a bit of height while still being comfortable, and the short ankle height makes them incredibly versatile. 

ACNE Studios Jensen Boots

When you think of Chelsea boots, chances are you're picturing the ACNE Studios Jensen Boots. With their signature pointed toe and slight heel, these are the ankle boots nearly everyone pulls out to pair with their skinny jeans the moment fall approaches. 

Stuart Weitzman 5050 Boots

Stuart Weitzman has many signature shoe styles, with more than one of them being over-the-knee boots. But the flat 5050 boots with a stretchy back have become synonymous with winter. Fashion girls break these out year after year to look chic and stay warm during the colder months, and that's not changing anytime soon. 

Dr. Martens Pascal Boots

The number one combat boot style has always been (and likely always will be) Dr. Martens. After they skyrocketed to icon status in the '90s, here we are almost 30 years later and fashion girls are as obsessed as ever. Virtually every celebrity owns a pair, and they serve up constant outfit inspiration, so these boots will always be top of mind.

Earlier today, Meghan Markle made a $36 H&M dress look like royalty, and now she's graced us with a second appearance of the day. Attending the Cirque du Soleil premiere of Totem at Royal Albert Hall, the Duchess of Sussex wore Roland Mouret's Sequined Gown ($5595), a wonderfully glittery number that might just be her most Hollywood look yet.

It's fitting, then, that she wore every celebrity's favorite red carpet shoes with the sparkling gown: Stuart Weitzman's iconic Nudist shoes. We've waxed poetic about the sandals many times before. We've broken down all the celebrities who own them, chronicled their insane popularity on the red carpet, and covered seasonal updates to the shoes. Scroll down to see how the expectant duchess styled her baby bump for a night on the town and shop the cult shoes for yourself.

Shoes can make or break an outfit. We don't know about you, but they're our weakness when it comes to shopping, too. However, for some of us, it can be quite the hassle thanks to our narrow feet. Is finding shoes that fit accordingly and are both comfortable and stylish that hard to find? We'd like to think not.

Ahead, we've put together the five best shoe brands for narrow feet that will make your soles (and your personal style) rejoice, and they should streamline your search from here on out. Here's to having the best of both worlds.

1. Stuart Weitzman

Stuart Weitzman shoes might be on the pricier end of the spectrum, but they're worth the splurge, especially if you have narrow feet. Whether you love yourself some good heels or you live in your flats, be sure to check out the narrow shoe styles, and prepare to be enamored instantly.

2. Nike

If you have narrow feet, you know how difficult it is to find the right pair of running shoes. However, Nike has got you covered, offering several different styles in narrow sizes so you can find your next pair of running shoes (or simply your next pair of everyday kicks) hassle-free.

3. Cole Haan

When it comes to quality shoes, you can never go wrong with Cole Haan. Whether your foot is narrow or wide, the brand's selection will do your feet (and wardrobe) a favor.

4. Naturalizer

If comfort is key when you're looking for shoes, you'll love Naturalizer. Its wide selection of narrow pointed-toe flats, platform sandals, and pumps offers the right amount of comfort without sacrificing any style.

5. Bella Vita

From work to brunch, Bella Vita's shoes are great for people with narrow feet. Plus, the prices are fairly reasonable (under $100!). What's not to love?

Now say goodbye to your shoe woes once and for all!

There are some trends that are versatile and wearable, and there are trends seemingly made to shock us. The latest controversial shoes on the scene fall securely into the latter category. My fellow Who What Wear editor Anna LaPlaca just brought to my attention Stuart Weitzman's new Duvet Boots, which pretty much look exactly how they sound, although I would've named them Puffer Boots, as they look like quilted puffer jackets for your feet—but I digress. "Designed for a distinctive pillowy effect," the brand describes, the boots "will instantly elevate any outfit" and are best paired with skinny jeans or a miniskirt.

At first glance, it seems that the number one thing the Duvet Boots have going for them is warmth (they're lined in shearling), followed closely by comfort (because duvets are comfortable), but I can't imagine we'll see them out in the world too much outside of the fashion week crowd and/or a few celebrity cameos. (Reminder: Celebrities love Stuart Weitzman.) Plus, something as attention-grabbing as this is usually a one-season wonder.

Adding to the controversy a bit is that they cost $1000 and feature a wedge heel, which many people still aren't down with despite the fact that it's a trend. All of that said, they have a strong '80s feel to them, which I can appreciate since it's such a trend for fall, and Gisele certainly pulls them off…

My verdict is that if you have this much money to spend on a pair of boots this memorable, keep the rest of your look simple and stick to simple, dark-wash skinny jeans and a sweater or T-shirt. Whatever you do, please don't wear them with an actual puffer jacket.

If you dare, preorder Stuart Weitzman's Duvet Boots in every color below, as well as other, more wearable boots, from the brand's crop of new arrivals.

You probably have feelings and questions too, but I hope I answered some of them for you.

You know all those gorgeous shoes you've been lusting over this entire spring? Well most of them are finally on sale, and we're here to show you a selection of our absolute favorites. Currently, Stuart Weitzman is offering 30% off select spring styles, and we have a feeling you'll fall in love with more than just one pair. Obviously, Stuart Weitzman is a classic footwear brand known by shoe lovers all over the world. Being the true shoe lover I am, hearing word of the sale left me hot and bothered and with significantly less money, but I'm not even mad about it.

Ahead shop the shoes I sat and contemplated over for what some would say was embarrassingly too long. But when you take a name like Stuart Weitzman and attach it to the word sale, both panic and massive contemplation are inevitably going to be involved. Hopefully your shopping experience is not as dramatic as mine as you shop the best shoes currently on sale at the beloved retailer.

Kentucky Derby outfits tend to go a little something like this: Dress. Statement hat. Voilà. It's a classic formula that needn't be updated, but in case you're hoping to put an unconventional twist on your race day look, we're here to help.

While the Derby is the perfect occasion to bust out your most outlandish hat, accessories of the sort aren't necessarily required (though they're certainly encouraged). The vibe tends to skew overtly springy (think bright colors and festive prints) and a little bit preppy, which can be interpreted in a handful of ways. Here are five fashion girl–approved looks worthy of an appearance at Churchill Downs.

A-line silhouettes feel right at home for the Derby. Instead of a dress, try a high-waisted skirt styled with a crop top and blazer. The effect is still polished, albeit a little edgier than a traditional take.

Derby-goers love their minis, but a shirtdress, in particular, feels a little less expected than a typical skater silhouette. Styled with strappy sandals, it's a little bit boho and completely cool.

Hats are a pillar of race-going attire. A wide-brimmed straw version teamed with a gauzy dress is a more free-spirited take on the classic pairing.

Sherbet hues are a popular choice. Dial up the brightness by pairing a matching off-the-shoulder top and trousers and accessorizing with a wide-brimmed hat.

Jumpsuits and co-ord sets rise to the occasion when dresses just aren't cutting it. A neckerchief lends a subtle preppy vibe to the look.

The Kentucky Derby is this weekend, May 5, so get moving.

Jennifer Lawrence just stepped out looking insanely cool in round sunglasses, a leather jacket, and a pair of flared trousers. Mixing business-causal and rocker-chic, the actress created a swoon-worthy look. Of course, we immediately had to dissect the outfit and discover where we could buy the items for ourselves. After finding suitable replacements for her sold out Jimmy Choo shoes and the exact Garret Leight sunglasses she wore, we set out to uncover the real star of the show: Her pants. And what we found surprised us.

While Lawrence pulled the pants off perfectly, when we saw them on Nordstrom’s website, we couldn’t help but notice that without the outfit’s other components, they seemed a little… basic. However, the pants did receive 5-star reviews on the site for being both comfortable and flattering. This just goes to show that sometimes the best finds are the unexpected ones. It all comes down to fit and styling, and Jennifer Lawrence’s outfit proves it.

If there’s one tried-and-true shoe style that we look to time and time again, it’s suede ankle boots. Of course, with any piece that makes a consistent appearance in your wardrobe, it’s easy to get into a style rut with them. However, with the resurgence of Western-inspired style à la Calvin Klein, these booties are getting the attention they deserve.

A classic pick for any outfit, this style will go with just about anything, whether it’s a pair of classic skinny jeans for a night out or a polished skirt for the office. Perhaps you want to stay true to the timeless Chelsea boots or you’re ready to take the cowboy trend by the reins—no pun intended. Or, if you’re itching to add some extra color to your outfits, opt for a bright style. No matter what you decide, we guarantee that with these boots, your outfit will look anything but tired.

A brown suede style will never go out of style. Throw them on with a pair of jeans to complete your look.

If your outfit is on the darker side, brighten it up a pair of eye-catching, vibrant-hued shoes.

If you’re wearing a menswear-inspired ensemble, try swapping out with oxfords for a pair of lace-up boots to give it an unexpected twist.

If you’re headed out for the night, nothing feels edgier then pairing an oversize tee with simple booties. Even better if it’s a graphic tee like this one.

Wearing a particularly bold and colorful look? A classic suede is no-fail option to pull your outfit together without taking away from the rest. 

Last week, Stuart Weitzman announced Giovanni Morelli as the brand’s new creative director. Having earned a masters’s degree in fashion design at the Domus Academy in Milan, Morelli has also designed for brands such as Marc Jacobs, Loewe, and Chloé, to name a few. Needless to say, the brand seems to be in good hands. And don’t worry, Vogue has reported that the brand's lauded Nudist heels aren’t going anywhere any time soon under this new direction.

In addition to breathing new life to Stuart Weitzman’s shoe collections, we’re equally excited that the brand is set to launch accessories in their Fall 2018 season as well, including bags and jewellery. Having spearheaded a number of iconic bags for Chloé including the infamous Faye bag, we can only assume there are great things to come from Morelli in the near future. Needless to say, we can’t wait to see how Staurt Weitzman transforms under his direction.

Planning a trip to Ireland? Whether it’s to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day or you’re overdue for a vacation, there’s no doubt you’ll want to know just what to pack. While it’s tempting to bring a haul of all your favorite outfits worthy of an Instagram or two, knowing what to expect while you’re there will also ensure you’ll pack light—who wouldn’t want that?

As with any vacation, whether for two weeks or for 36 hours, planning out your outfits can be a daunting task. But Irish fashion and lifestyle blogger Louise Cooney knows exactly what you’ll need when you’re getting ready to hop across the pond, and she's sharing the details below.

According to Cooney, locals love to have fun with their style, playing with textures and colors. “Faux fur-jackets, aviator jackets, and tailored coats have been very popular in Ireland,” she says. “Ankle boots with a small heel or else thigh-high boots are most women's go-to. Investing in a good pair of jeans for a trip to Ireland would be money well spent—you'll be warm and still stylish.” Cooney also mentions Ireland’s signature Aran sweater as a must for your wardrobe.

The fashion blogger encourages tourists to be prepared for any type of weather. “It’s an unwritten rule that in Ireland you can’t leave the house without both an umbrella and a pair of sunglasses. We’re known to get four seasons in one day here,” she explains. With that in mind, shop some of Irish girl–approved pieces that’ll have you ready for anything.

"Celebrities—they're just like us" is a phrase you read in magazines that accompanies photos of stars grabbing groceries or walking into the gym. While red carpet fashion may not always feel relatable, celebrities really do favor off-duty uniforms much like yours. And like you, their cold-weather footwear of choice is cool boots.

If you're in the market for a new pair, it's important to find a style that works with both your go-to skinny jeans and leggings. Taking inspiration from style stars and It girls, we rounded up five boot styles that work just as well with denim as they do with your favorite off-duty look. So before you invest in a new pair of boots, see the styles you'll need to get you through the next couple of months. Prepare for the cool weather with the five styles of boots below.

Ankle Boots

On Selena Gomez: Wolford leggings; Dear Frances Spirit Boots ($550)

Try a pair of sleek leather-esque leggings tucked into your favorite ankle boots for an elongating look.

On Lily Aldridge: Alyx T-shirt; Paige jeans; Alexander Wang bomber jacket; Alaïa ankle boots; Isabel Marant belt; Givenchy Flat Top Sunglasses ($295)

Pairing heeled booties with dark-wash skinny jeans is an easy combination.

Over-the-Knee Boots

On Jasmine Tookes: Louis Vuitton bag

Black jeans paired with over-the-knee boots are a foolproof combination.

On Nina Dobrev: Jimmy Choo Arrow Bag ($548)

Leggings and knee-high boots always look good together.

Combat Boots

On Bella Hadid: Heron Preston turtleneck; Off-White boots; Eugenia Kim beret

Chunky boots look great with a pair of cool leggings.

On Gigi Hadid: Dr. Martens boots; Maison Atia Catherine Coat ($1500); Pawaka Duabelas 12 Sunglasses ($410)

For an off-duty sporty look, layer long socks with boots and leggings.

Platform boots

On Sofia Richie: Adidas White Mountaineering Sweatshirt ($130); Re/Done Crawford Jeans ($260); Louis Vuitton Laureate Platform Boots ($1330); Bulgari Serpenti Bag ($2400)

Platform boots (lug soles especially) add a bit of edge to a basic outfit.

On Ashley Graham: Moschino top and jacket

Try wearing head-to-toe black for an edgy look. 

Pointed-Toe Boots

On Chrissy Teigen: Iro Fighla Sweater ($396); Gucci Leather Belt ($350); Yeezy boots; Chanel backpack 

Pointed boots work with every style of denim, but dark-wash skinny jeans are our favorite.

On Olivia Palermo: Paige top and leggings; Jimmy Choo boots

Consider pairing cropped leggings with booties that allow just a hint of ankle to show.

With the arrival of the bomb cyclone, you've officially made it through your first major storm of 2018. But with all that snow and wind comes a reminder that having the right gear can make every bit of difference when it comes to comfort. And the one thing that trumps all others is picking the right pair of boots. Look for lug soles to avoid slipping, fleece lining to keep your toes warm, and waterproofing to make sure the snow doesn't melt through. 

But we know that finding boots that hit the criteria while still looking cute can be a challenge, so we did a little digging for you. Below are eight pairs of boots that while pretty darn good looking, also happen to be practical for trudging through a flurry or snowstorm headed your way. So before the next storm system hits, make sure you've got the shoes you need because even though staying indoors may be ideal, it's not always realistic.

Check out our picks below.

If there’s one place you want to appear polished and put together, it’s the office. And often that means throwing on a pair of heels to finish off your outfit. It isn’t worth silently suffering through the day with a pair of shoes that are painful though. Especially now since styles like kitten heels and block heels are so popular—there’s never been a better time to add heels into your workday repertoire. But which are the coolest versions to add to your closet?

To find out the styles that have the stamp of approval from fashion girls, I turned to Who What Wear’s very own editors to weigh in on the heels they’re wearing to the office. Their cool picks run the gamut from mules to classic slingbacks to ankle boots that stand the test of every season. Want to see the heels they’re wearing on repeat?

Go on to shop seven heels for the office that are comfortable and stylish.

"My office heels pick is 90% about comfort, which is why I opt for these Manolo slingbacks. The soft suede and not-too-high heel ensure your feet aren't hating you after a long day, plus they're classic and give any outfit a polished touch."

"They're a bit taller than what I'd normally go for, but these boots are surprisingly comfortable to wear, even out to appointments during the day."

"When it comes to comfortable heel options, a block style is the way to go. I wear the below black mules all the time and have zero complaints."

"I love these baby Mary Jane block heels from Carel. The height is just enough, and they always add a pop of color to any outfit."

"The most comfortable heels I wear to work are always a block heel with about three to four inches of height. Not only do I currently love the look of a more substantial heel, but they prevent any teetering and allow me to be on my feet for hours without being in pain. These are the latest pair of block heels I'm looking to add to my arsenal."

"I have a pair of floral Aquazzura Alix Pumps that I wear to the office all the time, and I never get blisters. These embroidered versions are super cute too—I might need them in every color now."

"I realize that this is the world's smallest heel, but a heel nonetheless, and my feet love them. The only bad part about these comfortable mules is that because of the fabric, they can only be worn on rain-free days."

"Me and feet are quite thankful that kitten heels have emerged as one of the year's biggest shoe trends. Giving you just enough height, they're the comfiest heels I've worn."

Here at Who What Wear, we're pretty keen on monogramming just about anything, from our jeans to our tees to our luggage. Just in time for the most festive season of the year, we came across a glamorous way to rock a monogram: Stuart Weitzman's new limited-edition shoe clips. The metal, crystal-embellished letters can be clipped onto the vamp of your shoes or the side of your handbag, making for a chic, unexpected detail that will undoubtedly elevate your look.

The $125 clips, which are also available in black crystals in every letter of the alphabet, are the chicest, most eye-catching way to personalize your favorite shoes or bag. Have a pair of boring shoes that could use a refresh? This could be your sartorial remedy. Need a last-minute gift idea for your most stylish friend? She'll love one or two of these. Time will tell if shoe clips are to become the next big thing in the accessory world, but we certainly wouldn't be opposed.

The white boot trend has had a good run in 2017, but as we prepare for another year, we can't help but wonder which trends will stay and which will be cut. Well, thanks to Kendall Jenner's most recent look, we can rest assured that the white boot trend isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

She's been spotted wearing the Stuart Weitzman Clingy Boots not one but 10 times so far this year, so we can only assume that celebrities and It girls alike will continue to rock this now cult-classic boot style well into 2018. If you're looking for ankle boots that truly go with every outfit, the Clingy boots are undeniably worth the investment. Ahead, we've rounded up a few of our favorite Kendall Jenner looks featuring the style. From garden party–chic to a casual weekend look, brace yourself to be convinced that these are the boots you don't want to be seen without in 2018.

Ashley Graham is undoubtedly one of fashion’s most influential women right now. Her achievements go way beyond her success as a supermodel. Graham is an incredible advocate for body diversity by speaking about self-love and constantly shutting down body shaming. Oh, and let’s not forget her sleek fashion sense. Here, we analyze Graham’s event style to showcase the best plus-size party outfits.

After selecting our four favorite Ashley Graham looks, we have pinpointed two key attributes to look for. First, a high-waist fit is always flattering. The silhouette elongates your legs and shows off your waist. Secondly, Graham is a big fan of midi dresses. She styles her midi-length dress with minimalist stilettos and a statement coat. Below, check out four different plus-size party outfits brought to you by Ashley Graham.

OUTFIT #1

If you decide to wear trousers, keep the pieces simple. This cropped white top is a nice contrast to the high-waist refined pants. Even better, the stilettos and high-waist style elongate your legs. 

OUTFIT #2

Monochrome outfits are a huge hit with fashion girls everywhere. Steal this look by pairing a silky duster with a comfy midi-length dress and sock booties.

OUTFIT #3

For your next event, play with texture. Sequins are forecasted to be a big trend in the coming months, and what says evening chic more than fur? 

OUTFIT #4

For a menswear-inspired look, stick with a sleek blazer. Then to elevate your look for the evening, wear a sheer blouse exposing lace lingerie. 

Last night marked the debut airing of the 2017 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. And like many of you who gathered together with friends and family to watch the epic lingerie extravaganza, several of the VS models who walked in the show last week in Shanghai met up once more in New York City to watch themselves on the big screen.

Of course, the viewing party looks the models donned for the evening were just as stylish as those worn to the after-party. Bella Hadid walked yesterday's pink carpet in a daring red latex dress, featuring a thigh-high front-slit and lace-print detailing. Elsa Hosk's tuxedo-dress and thigh-high socks channeled vintage '90s vibes, and Adriana Lima wore a silver-studded bra plucked straight from the new Victoria's Secret x Balmain collaboration (which, by the way, you can still purchase, if you act fast!).

We've been tracking 13-year-old Millie Bobby Brown's style evolution since she debuted in her role as Eleven on the Netflix original sci-fi series Stranger Things. Now, a year later, she's fully cemented herself as a fashion icon in the making. Sitting front row at fashion shows, starring in top fashion campaigns, and consistently shutting down the red carpet in her head-turning game-changing outfits, it's been a busy (and very stylish) year for this teen.

A quick look through some of Millie's recent ensembles demonstrates she's not afraid to take risks (or step into some serious statement-making shoes).

Flight attendants arguably log the most miles crisscrossing the world, which means the rest of us can learn a thing or two from these experts about making travel as painless as possible. At the top of our list is comfortable travel shoes. Since we've lived through the hassles of TSA and the misery of swollen, cramped feet mid-flight, we're all ears when it comes to anything that might take the discomfort out of travel.

To fill us in on what we need to know, we tapped flight attendant Danny Lam to share the tips he's picked up along the way. So what does a flight attendant wear to travel off-duty? "When I'm off-duty and traveling for leisure, comfort is key. For shorter, domestic flights, I'll usually wear my Nike trainers. The Roshe Two, in particular, are super comfortable," he notes. "For longer, international flights, I'll also pack a pair of slides to change into because it's nice for some wiggle room for your toes."

For Lam, fit is a crucial part of picking the right footwear. "Anything that is constricting is a no-go for me. Because of the altitude change, lots of swelling can occur in your ankles and feet, so you want to have something on the looser side," he says. "I would avoid anything with lots of laces or [that] takes a small army to put on/off." So whether you'll soon find yourself on a long-haul flight or a short-and-sweet trip home, make sure you're armed with the right footwear.

Gigi Hadid's long-standing partnership with Stuart Weitzman just blessed us with another pair of shoes, following last year's covetable Gigi Boots. This time around, Hadid, who is the face of the brand and donates a portion of the shoes' proceeds to Pencils of Promise, designed beautiful embroidered pointed-toe mule loafers.

The Eyelove and Eyelovemore Mules are constructed of suede (in three different shades) and feature an evil eye motif on the right foot of each. A metallic heel ups the pretty factor even more while shearling lining ups the comfort factor. The description of the shoes includes a quote from Hadid about her choice of an evil eye motif. She explains, "The evil eye is a powerful symbol meant to protect those who wear it from negative energies. It’s emotionally comforting and beautiful and captivating to look at."

The mules are available starting today and given that Hadid is set to make an appearance at Stuart Weitzman in SoHo, you can expect to start seeing her wear them around NYC as of today.

True to form, Kate Middleton's maternity wardrobe during her third pregnancy is a mix of pretty new pieces and favorite standbys. Case in point: The Duchess of Cambridge paid a visit to the Hornsey Road Children's Centre in London today, where she wore her old Stuart Weitzman for Russell & Bromley HalfnHalf Stretch Knee-High Boots ($598). 

Middleton fans will remember that the chic royal wore the same boots numerous times last winter, but she's actually been wearing them since 2014. This time three years ago, she wore them with tights and a purple dress at an event in London, proving that classic knee-high boots never go out of style.

Bella and Gigi Hadid are photographed almost every single day, and although they both experiment with their fashion choices, one thing has remained constant: The sisters have worn the same pair of boots all year long, and both own them in several colours.

The shoes in question are Stuart Weitzman's Clingy Booties (£525), which boast a pointed toe, kitten heel and tight stretch leather on the calf. They are a shorter spin-off of the brand's cult-favourite Clinger Booties, which the sisters have also worn.

While every season there’s a new pair of It shoes to add to your wardrobe, it’s hard to beat the appeal of a great pair of ankle boots. Fashion girls are bona fide fans and have shown us year after year why they belong in our closets. While they can be worn with pretty much every outfit in your repertoire, ankle boots with skirts are the perfect pairing to wear for fall.

Whether you’re opting for a vinyl miniskirt in the early days of the season or a long silk skirt with lots of layers when the temperatures dip, ankle boots add a cool girl spin to any skirt look you’ll try this fall. This season, we’re seeing a return of sock boots, but other cool styles are also emerging. Patent leather is huge, and kitten heels also have ankle boot interpretations. Want to see our favorite styles?

Go on to shop the best ankle boots of the season from Loewe, Trademark, Off-White, and more.

There are certain fashion rules that we think should be broken. And one at the top of our list is any limit on wearing white. In our book, wearing white year-round is 100% okay. In fact, all-white outfits are one of the chicest iterations of monochrome dressing. We’ve noticed that fashion girls on the street style scene are huge fans of the look and have a few styling tricks up their sleeves to make it work.

First, try choosing pieces with different textures. If you’re wearing solid-white trousers, try pairing them with a sheer blouse. Next, layer different shades of white. Optic-white pants are the perfect complement to a cream top. Finally, let your accessories add some personality to your outfit. A cool belt or a statement bag in a vibrant color can liven it up.

If I had to choose one word to describe Angelina Jolie's style, it would be consistent. For starters, she is incredibly loyal to understated colors such as black, white, and tan. She's also a staunch advocate for a structured handbag and a pair of oversize sunglasses. When it comes to her footwear, you can bet she's just as predictable. Instead of the latest shoe trends, you can reliably find her wearing nude pointy-toe pumps no matter the occasion.

Case in point: the newest outfit she wore for a shopping trip at The Grove in Los Angeles. She wore a black midi dress with a matching coat along with a Celine Clasp Bag. While I personally might have chosen a pair of sneakers for a mall excursion, Jolie opted for her favorite posh shoes by Christian Louboutin.

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.

It’s no secret Stuart Weitzman is known for designing classic shoe styles. After all, the brand is a celebrity favourite and go-to for quality footwear. From the Nudist sandals that work for any event to the Clingy boots taking over the fashion scene right now, the brand never fails. When it comes to classic pumps, the brand has two simple silhouettes that will never go out of style.

"Pointed-toe pumps add an air of sophistication that never goes out of style. The Curvia, on a 4-inch stiletto heel, is distinguished by a unique vamp design that is cut low on the sides for an elongating silhouette.

When Summer comes around, sandals may take the top spot in your footwear wardrobe, but Kendall Jenner's latest look could make you rethink that approach. The model stopped by the Veuve Clicquot Polo Classic in NYC on Saturday wearing the perfect summer take on ankle boots.

Kendall paired Stuart Weitzman's forthcoming Clingy booties with an off-the-shoulder floral dress by Dolce & Gabbana. Usually, ankle boots may feel a bit heavy to pair with such a lightweight summery dress, but the white hue gives them just the right seasonal spin. And while a dress and ankle boots are perfect for a dressed-up daytime look, pair the boots with cutoff jeans for a more relaxed ensemble. Either way, you'll look perfectly cool all summer long wearing white boots.
