Though we really started seeing a lot of open-toed boots and booties last Fall, they're even more popular this season. Which is kind of funny, when I think about how many people claimed to hate the trend last year -- either a lot of women have changed their minds, or there are going to be a lot of unhappy campers this Fall. Love them or hate them, open-toed boots are one of this Fall's hottest shoe trends.
The articles below will lead you to some of the season's hottest Fall boots and booties, those with open toes, and without.

2. Ruffled Shoes - A Feminine Trend for Fall

One of the Fall shoe trends I'm most excited about is ruffled shoes and booties. A definite change of pace from the menswear-inspired styles of the last few years, these styles range from cute to sexy, but they're all especially feminine. In addition to ruffles, keep an eye out for other glamorous embellishments like bows, lace and rhinestones.
3. Over-the-Knee Boots - A New Height in Fall Trends

I've been preaching about the advantages of over-the-knee boots for years, so I'm happy to see this trend hitting with such force this Fall. I prefer my thigh high boots with flat or low heels, and that's what I'm seeing on most of these ultra-tall boots, but there are plenty of over-the-knee styles for heel lovers as well. Whichever heel height you prefer, these boots are easy to pair with skirts, dresses, and of course, skinny jeans.
4. Fall Shoes Color Trends: Red, Purple and Gray

Of course, there is no shortage of shoes in all the usual Fall colors like grays, earth tones and black, but if you're looking for something with a little more pop, you're in luck. For the second year running, purple is one of the reigning colors in Fall footwear, and red shoes are everywhere. Want something a little more subtle? Keep an eye out for mid-toned and dark blues. While they're not nearly as prevalent as the other shades I mentioned, they're not difficult to find, and they're always easy to wear.
Here some of my top picks in the season's hottest colors.
