The rain is back and it’s time to start saying that long goodbye to flip-flops and wedges.
Thankfully, with a bit of savvy shopping, your new season footwear can be just as fabulous as your summer shoes and see you through every occasion – from winter wedding to full-on downpour.
Our rule when it comes to splurging on shoes is simple – if the fabric is hardwearing and they’ll last for a few years, it’s worth investing.
If they’re a real trend-led or statement piece, look to more affordable brands.
With this in mind, we’ve rounded up ten great pair of shoes that will see you through the coming months.
Which are your favourite?
V By Very Aria Suede Crossover Point Court (€48)
A good black court shoe is like a ‘get out of jail free’ card when it comes to dressing for occasions, as it will add a polished edge to any outfit. The crossover detail on these ones make them a bit more stylish than the standard court shoe. So elegant!
Ugg Australia Classic Short Boots (€205)
They may divide opinion but we wouldn’t be without a pair of cosy Ugg boots. The perfect Sunday footwear option (especially if you wearing painful heels the night before!), you’ll get plenty of wear out of these!
V By Very Trinity Block Heel Patent Point Boots (€58)
Want to keep those toes dry on a wet and windy morning? Look no further than these patent Ankle Boots, which will bring some edge to your look but are still streamlined enough for the office.
V By Very Hope Studded Strap Pointed Toe Shoe (€36)
Been fawning over those studded designer heels that every fashion blogger seems to be wearing? These are a much more affordable alternative and a total steal at less than €40.
Miss Selfridge Embroidered Ankle Boot (€109)
Floral embroidery is one of the big trends for the coming season, especially on ankle boots, so these are one of our key buys. These may be a statement piece but they still have a real vintage feel so we reckon they’ll work for a few years to come.
Clarks Hamble Oak Ladies Brogues (€74, reduced from €76)
They may not be the most glam of our collection but a quality pair of brogues are a must for office wear. Much better for your feet than heels and they’ll still look professional.
V By Very Suede Knee High Block Heel 70s Boot (€105)
The knee-high boot comes back with a bang every September and we’re always more than happy to see it return! Not only will these boots keep your legs warm, the retro vibe is perfect for AW16. Maximum style points!
Asics Patriot 8 Running Shoe (€68)
If you’re planning to keep fit this winter, a new pair of runners should be on your shopping list. Asics is always a popular choice due to the high quality and affordable price of their shoes. We love the pop of turquoise!
River Island Block Heel Ballet Shoe (€40)
While many of the new season releases are in darker shades, we always try to add one or two bright pairs to our collection as they’ll work really well with our fav black outfits. These ballet-style pumps are perfect.
V By Very Irving Military Strap Heeled Premium Leather Boot (€84)
From the military influence to the real leather material, we couldn’t leave these off the list. Team LWI has been lusting over these bad boys for the last few weeks!
