Next week is Paris Fashion Week for Spring/Summer 2025, and like every season, I’m so excited to explore the trends and fresh styles that will define the fashion scene with you. But let’s not get ahead of ourselves just yet! Since August, I’ve been browsing through dozens—maybe even hundreds—of new fall/winter collections from my favorite brands. Along the way, I’ve narrowed down six pairs of shoes that really caught my eye. If you’ve been following this blog, you know how much I love flat shoes or ones with small heels—comfortable but still stylish. Lately, I’ve also been loving colorful shoes—they’re the perfect way to add a pop of color to any outfit without going overboard. So, without further ado, here are my favorite shoes for this fall. Happy shopping ;)!

- Carel Audrey burgundy & camel patent leather ankle boots — Last year, I bought two pairs of boots from Carel: one in red patent leather and another in navy blue and white, just like this pair here, and I absolutely love them! With their small block heel, they’re incredibly comfortable—perfect to wear with cropped pants (like these Massimo Dutti mid-rise straight-leg jeans I just received and adore!). If you’re looking for a similar style at a more affordable price, I found the Aline boots from Bobbies Paris.
- Tod’s embellished patent-leather brogues — I’m a huge fan of Tod’s shoes; the quality is unmatched! A few years ago, I bought a pair of chunky loafers similar to this one, and I love wearing them during the mid-season. This fall, I’ve fallen for these brogues, which add a chic, slightly masculine-feminine vibe to any outfit.
- Tod’s fringed glossed-leather brogues — These beautiful brogues have made their way onto my wishlist! They’re incredibly chic and timeless—definitely a wardrobe staple.
- Adidas Gazelle shoes — I’m a big fan of Adidas Gazelles, especially the turquoise ones. This color pairs so well with autumnal shades like burgundy, camel, brown, beige, and navy blue.
- Chloé Marcie embellished leather ballet flats — I adore these ballet flats! I also found a more affordable option: the Camélia flats by the Parisian brand Pied de Biche.
- Vibi Venezia velvet slippers — I love these gorgeous slippers inspired by the traditional footwear of Venice gondoliers and made right in the heart of Venice. The beautiful deep raspberry hue looks très chic paired with camel and blue. They’re definitely on my wishlist ;).
