While 2020 may have seemed like the year you collected slippers, slippers . . . and more slippers, our stay-home style actually laid the foundation for the shoe trends we're going to be wearing into 2021. Looking at the spring 2021 runways, it appears cult-favourite luxury labels like Khaite and Bottega Veneta have predicted the return of the leather flat, albeit in some exciting new shapes. Our more relaxed lifestyle jives just fine with a silhouette that's just as comfortable. We're also seeing brands such as Proenza Schouler, Chloé, and Stella McCartney inspire tough boots beyond the hiking shoe. These utility boots fuse fashion and function in a really brilliant way, and also happen to look great complemented by the fuzzy socks we've been living in. Aside from that, prep fans will be excited that the loafer is back in 2021, and natural-toned, lug-sole boots are helping us make the transition into the new year, though you may have already invested in some of those. Ahead, browse through six shopping trends for 2021, or jump ahead to the section you know you're most eager to shop.
