As sad as it may be there is no denying that autumn is on its way. In fact, if the weather this week is anything to go by you would be forgiven for thinking we bypassed fall and fell straight into winter! But there is a bright side to the change in season; along with the new weather comes a whole new shoe collection to lust over. It’s time to get your hands on the new styles that will be rocking your shoe cupboard this autumn.
Pretty flats
It seems that fashion’s love affair with high heels is well and truly over, for the time being at least, because it is flats that are set to rule this autumn. Maybe we have collectively had enough of sore toes, or just want to be free to run around all day? Whatever the reason, flats are having a definite moment and it’s time to make the most of having your feet firmly on the ground. These flats are far from boring; from animal print loafers to suede slippers you’ll find any number of gorgeous flats to take you from office to bar.
Charlotte Olympia Kitty Suede Slippers, £425, My Theresa | Python loafers, £710, Gucci
Lace ups
If there is one embellishment our shoes are particularly fond of this season it is laces. From laced up flats to ribbon adorned stilettos, we are strapped in and ready to go!
Danielle Michetti Point Toe Flats, £550, Net-a-Porter | Parisian Lace Up Heels, £75, Office
Mary Janes
A favourite from the sixties and often seen gracing the feet of little girls, the Mary Jane is making a more adult comeback. The ankle strap that the style is known for works equally well on cute pastel flats or as a surprise addition to smart courts.
Ginger Patent Mary Janes, £65, Topshop
Cut out boots
The cut out boot is the perfect transitional season shoe. Edgy enough to rock up a last minute summer sale purchase or pair with skinnies and an oversized jumper when the temperature starts to drop.

Over-the-Knee boots
Think over-the-knee boots are only for the fashion brave? Think again! After creeping into our conscious last year they are set to be even bigger in autumn 2015. Go seventies style with a suede skirt and cosy knit or team with a mini dress, either way the extra inches on the boots will keep your legs warm as the season changes.
