While you might be months or decades past your graduation day, the feeling of back-to-school shopping still takes a strong hold every Fall. And, while we are already planning all of our Autumn looks [1] rife with corduroy, suede, plaid, and more, we're also seeking out the accessories that will make our existing age-old favourites feel like new again. First up? Shoes. With a killer pair of shoes, you'll be turning heads everywhere you go. Be it heels, flats, boots, or sneakers [2], we've got you covered with the seven top Fall 2019 shoe trends that you're about to see everywhere. There are statement platforms, cosy shearlings, classic Mary Janes — the list goes on. Ahead are the shoes we're shopping right now, just in time to celebrate the coming Fall season in style.
Fall 2019 Shoe Trend: Mary Janes
Channel that true childhood back-to-school moment with a pair of Mary Janes this Fall. Whether stiletto heels, chunkier styles, or elegant pointed-toe flats, it's time to reconnect to your youthful roots with a shoe trend inspired by the runways of Miu Miu, Paco Rabanne, Michael Kors, and more.

Fall 2019 Shoe Trend: Sherpa Shearling
This Fall, shearling doesn't have to only grace your outerwear options. Instead, look to designers like Chanel, 3.1 Phillip Lim, and Off-White to encourage you to keep your toes just as cosy and warm as the rest of your body by way of textured shearling footwear.

Fall 2019 Shoe Trend: Winter Florals
Florals don't just have to stick to your Spring and Summer wardrobes. In fact, we almost like the pattern more come Fall and Winter. Erdem created ladylike flats, Zimmermann opted for head-turning thigh-high boots, and Brock Collection went Victorian with lace-front booties. No matter what your style, there's a Winter floral for you this year.

Fall 2019 Shoe Trend: Neutral Croc
Croc is not altogether an uncommon material, especially come Fall, but this season we are returning to the roots of the look. Designers like Max Mara, Givenchy, Brock Collection, and the like reminded all classic style lovers how much we love the neutral tans and browns that the exotic embossing provides.

Fall 2019 Shoe Trend: Ankle Ties
Go ultra-feminine this Fall with ankle ties — but not just any ankle ties. This season, it truly is the bigger the better as we opt for full ribbons, multiple wraps, and grosgrain materials to give off that haute couture look that takes your flats and heels alike to the next level . . . straight from the collections of Off-White, Zimmermann, and Balenciaga to boot!

Fall 2019 Shoe Trend: Chunky Platforms
Channel your inner Spice Girl this Fall with platform heels that are inspired by the late-'90s and early-aughts. Like Stella McCartney, Alexa Chung, and Tom Ford, we are loving everything from Winter boots to ankle-strap pumps in the silhouette that will have you (quite literally) standing a bit taller as you debut your new look.

Tory Burch Patos 105mm Sandals [29] ($398).

Fall 2019 Shoe Trend: Green
If there is one colour that is reigning supreme this Fall, it's green. In hunter, Kelly, seafoam, and mint, the earthy tone is going high fashion for the coming season. Brandon Maxwell proved the elegance of a velvet pump, Sally LaPointe went classic in suede, and Erdem chose a saturated silk. At the end of the day, though, we really just want them all!
