Lean into the preppy vibe of a boat shoe!

Think scrunched leather, strong square toe shapes, shoe jewelry, and playful tassels.

Whats great about this shoe trend is that you could dress loafers up or down.

Bows and Lace

On that note, expect the bows and lace details to keep on coming.

And lace brings an ultra-feminine and romantic charm to spring footwear.

I love a platform slingback for a casual look, or really anytime you want a bit more height.

From snakeskin heels to flats to boots, you could expect to see this luxe texture just about everywhere.

Bonus: It pairs just as well with fluttering sundresses as it does with relaxed denim.

Patent leather has that glossy, bold appeal, and subtle neutral colors will dominate.

Plus, theyre so versatile and can elevate almost any outfit, Levy says.

Pairing patent leather shoes with jeans or a cute dress is a perfect mix of chic and casual.
