The Cool Winter Shoes That Aren't Boots
When winter rolls around, boots can sometimes seem like the only appropriate shoes to wear. Sandals are pushed to the back of the closet, and those open-toed flats just won’t cut it. But if you want to change things up from your standard boots, try a pair of classic loafers.
One of the biggest trends we saw last year were the wildly popular Gucci styles. After all, they’re a classic wardrobe staple that can also withstand the cold winter months. Fashion girls have been wearing theirs with everything from T-shirts and jeans to ankle-grazing dresses. Whether you’re heading to the office or the airport, you can bet loafers will be in heavy rotation this season. Want to see our favorite styles?
