Of all the shoe trends for Fall and Winter, we can't help but hold a special place in our hearts for all the flats. Not only have the low-heeled footwear styles really hit their stride over the past few seasons, but they're the easiest way to stay chic and comfortable at the same time. Whether you're heading out to run some errands in a pair of combat boots and jeans, or prefer a Mary Jane skimmer with a cocktail dress for a night out, don't forget about your flats, for they will quickly become your most favourite go-tos if you let them. We have backless mules and preppy oxfords; pointed toes and classic ballets that will have you channelling the likes of Audrey Hepburn and Grace Kelly in no time. Ahead, find out seven favourite flat shoe trends for Fall and Winter 2019—and the styles we're shopping now.

Ballet Flats
There's nothing more timeless than a pair of ballet flats, born on the stage and adapted by the likes of Audrey Hepburn and Coco Chanel herself. Don't hide this style under wide pant legs when you're taking them out for a spin. Instead, opt for ankle-crop pixie pants or skirts that make sure to show off your feet.

Mary Janes
Take your favourite ballet flats one step further this fall and, instead, opt for a Mary Jane style. It's time to take back that chic trend you remember from your childhood and, might we add, it's the perfect way to elevate everything from dresses to boyfriend jeans this season.

ASOS Mary Jane Ballet Flats
Sam Edelman Rally Crystal Mary Jane Pointed Toe Flats

Brogues
On the more masculine end of the spectrum come brogues and oxfords, which we love for that borrowed-from-the-boys vibe. Much like their slip-on loafer counterparts, this Fall flats trend looks equally stellar when styled with tailored suiting and flowing skirts and dresses alike.
Church’s Burwood Glossed-Leather Brogues
& Other Stories Leather Oxfords
New Look PU Brogues
Manolo Blahnik Row Two-Tone Suede Oxford Loafers
Knee High Boots
When it comes to boots, we are opting for the more structured knee-highs this Fall and Winter, choosing flat boots that have a more equestrian inspiration than we have in seasons past. Tuck in your skinny jeans or show off a little leg with a mini skirt that comes a few inches above your knee. We know that this trend will soon be a wardrobe staple immediately.
Madewell The Winslow Knee-High Boot
J.Crew Classic Leather Riding Boots with Buckle
Mango Leather Boots with Tall Leg
Aldo Neara
Slingbacks
Showing a little skin without going over-the-top is not only a trend saved for your torso. In fact, we love a slingback flat (especially those of the pointed-toe variety) for it's ability to be nearly all things to all wearers. With an elegant and elongated shape, it adds that little something more than a classic ballet flat but still feels quite a bit more dressed-up than most (though not all!) totally backless mules.
