The Ultimate Shoe Guide 2008

Oxfords

Fall’s menswear-inspired trousers have “work staple” written all over them. Choose gray patent leather for an unexpected (and rain-friendly) touch. And wear higher versions with shift dresses for a slightly funky attitude.

Peep-toes
The style is ubiquitous in fall collections, and we scooped up this two-tone patent-leather-and suede shoe for its tactile beauty and cool heel. It’s a very toned-down sister to the amped-up version that strutted the Louis Vuitton runway.
