If you consider yourself a homebody (although isn't everyone these days?) then this shoe trend is for you. This new at-home lifestyle created a quick shift away from stuffy heels and chunky soles and toward a more practical footwear option that works both in and out of your home. We like to call this trend "house shoes." Featuring slippers, clogs, slides, and more, if there's one thing this trend is kin to it's variety. 

So far this year, the house shoe movement has proven to be a new staple amongst the closets of fashion girls everywhere and thanks to the S/S 21 runways, we can assure you that the trend will be one of the most popular shoe styles next season as well. With that knowledge, I can't think of one reason why you wouldn't buy a few pairs. Ahead, I have rounded up a handful of my current favorite house shoes including brands you know and love from Ugg to Gucci. So if lounging around at home is all you have planned for the rest of the year, I suggest you take this shopping roundup very seriously.
