fall shoe trends 2024

With every new season comes a new set of trends, with everything from jeans to bags to shoes. And while trends certainly come and go, I'm really excited for all the incredible shoe trends on the horizon this year that I could see sticking around for years to come. There's western style, cottagecore, coquette style, elevated minimalism, and so many more! These upcoming trends give so much room fro flexibility in your wardrobe, and will honestly make you so excited to get dressed in the morning. So without further ado, let's get into my five favorite shoe trends at the moment that totally belong in your shopping cart.

Chunky Loafers

Nordstrom

Free People Green Liv Loafer

I love a good loafer, and the chunkier the better with these cute shoes! This chunky loafer is from Free People, and I'm actually obsessed with the stunning khaki green color that it comes in. These would look absolutely divine styled with a cute mini dress and some opaque tights!

Nordstrom

Sam Edelman Elaina T-Strap Flat Loafer

These chunky loafers are a mix of a mary jane and a loafer, and I love them. These cute shoes seem very vintage-inspired which is always in for the autumnal season. Can't you just picture them styled with a mini skirt, and some ruffle socks? Too cute!

Tall Boots

Nordstrom

Steve Madden Western Boots

These boots are #1 on my wishlist at the moment, and they're also all over my FYP (for good reason). Western-style continues to be a trend that comes back every fall, so I don't see it going away anytime soon. You can pair these cute shoes with so many styles of outfits. You can wear them with jeans, mini skirts, or even midi dresses! The list goes on and on.

Nordstrom

Dolce Vita Suede Brown Boots

My brown suede boots get so much wear in the fall and winter seasons. I'm constantly throwing them on when I'm in a hurry, and they instantly make any outfit look 10 times more cute, and more polished. Plus, when they have a short heel like this pair, they're actually super comfortable.

Fun Sneakers

Nordstrom

Gazelle Yellow

When many people think of fall, they picture a very muted, dull color palette. However, I think autumn is a fantastic time to embrace the darker, richer colors of the season! From mustard yellows to woodsy greens, there are so many gorgeous hues to give a chance throughout the fall. I'd pair this stunning Adidas sneakers with a basic white t-shirt and some comfy jeans.

Nordstrom

Handball Spezial Shoes

I absolutely adore navy in the fall, and this cute pair of Spezials are no exception to that! The added lighter gray-blue detailing makes these chunkier sneakers a little more feminine, adding an almost Bridgerton-esque hue to these shoes. Plus, this pair is all over Pinterest, so you know they're on-trend. I'd grab a pair of jeans and an oversized cable knit sweater for the perfect fall look here!

Mesh Flats

Nordstrom

Steve Madden Mesh Flats

It honestly took me quite a long time to warm up to the mesh shoe trend, but I have to say that I've definitely come around to it. Now, I'm seeing them everywhere...I kind of can't get enough! They make a simple outfit seem so much more unique and bold. These will be my next trendy purchase, for sure.

Nordstrom

Jeffrey Campbell Mesh

Here's another mesh pair, but in white — and I think I like these even more! I never listen to the rule "you can't wear white after Labor Day," and it seems most people agree because white shoes are definitely tending for fall! Breaking fashion rules for fall? Yeah, I can get behind that trend.

Burgundy

Nordstrom

Franco Sarto Mary Janes

Mary janes keep coming back in style, repeating season after season, and I'm so happy about it — especially because this trend was made for fall! They look so cute with so many different outfit combos! Pair them with a cute pleated skirt, throw on a cable knit sweater, and grab your PSL for the ideal fall fit.

Nordstrom

Paige Slingback

I love a good pair of slingback — and bonus points if they're a kitten heel! While these are on the pricier side, they're every bit worth the investment for how much wear you're sure to get out of them. I love Paige, and I've purchased from them multiple times, loving every item I've picked up! Their pieces last forever!

Did someone say, "Tom Ford-era Gucci" — because this is definitely it! This kind of boucle dress that gives off a jacket vibe is just the style I'm going for this fall! Plus, the burgundy bag shown above is a great cheaper alternative to a lot of Gucci's newest arrivals! I plan styling this one with some heeled slingbacks for a sophisticated look this season!

H&M

I'm loving all things burgundy this season, and this dress caught my eye for the luxe style and shape of the dress. It has a beautiful cut that hugs the body, and gold detailing at the shoulders for a high-end look that will have people thinking it's way more expensive than it is.

Think of the most quotable movies you know, and there's a good chance The Devil Wears Prada makes the list. Meryl Streep's Miranda Priestly is just that iconic. The Academy Award-winning actress perfected the movie's balance of biting edge, style, and hidden vulnerability to create a character that is one in a million — and it looks like we could see even more of her thanks to a new The Devil Wears Prada sequel in the works!

News of the sequel first broke in July 2024, right after Emily Blunt actually said the cast would be "good" without a sequel and simply cherishing the first movie. Well it looks like we need to head back into our closets for all the cerulean belts and Chanel boots we can find. Here's everything you need to know about The Devil Wears Prada 2!

Is the original cast returning for The Devil Wears Prada sequel?

MJ Kim/Getty Images

While both Emily Blunt and Anne Hathaway have agreed in the past that it makes sense for Andy's story to end with the first movie, Emily recently teased her return during the American Institute for Stuttering Gala on September 16. “It’s cool,” she tells People.

“I just wanna get some good eye makeup going again,” she continues, before joking that maybe her character Emily will come down with another stomach flu. “I’m hoping for that.”

Anne, however, isn't sure what the story would look like in the modern digital age. “I don’t know if there can be [a sequel],” she said on a 2022 episode of The View (via Deadline). “I just think that movie was in a different era. Now everything’s gone so digital and that movie is centered around the concept of producing a physical thing and it’s just, it’s just very different.”

“Sometimes things should be cherished and preserved in this bubble and it’s okay,” Emily Blunt told Josh Horowitz in February 2024 (via People).

Is there The Devil Wears Prada 2?

20th Century Fox/Disney

Yes, it looks like we're finally getting a The Devil Wears Prada sequel! The original movie came out in 2006, and fans have hoped for another installment ever since Andy ditched Miranda in Paris.

The OG movie's screenwriter Aline Brosh McKenna is reportedly back for round 2, as is director David Frankel and producer Wendy Finerman, according to Deadline.

What book is the sequel to Devil Wears Prada?

Amazon

The second The Devil Wears Prada book is called Revenge Wears Prada: The Devil Returns — and there's a good chance this will become the second The Devil Wears Prada movie! The book follows Andy, who's finally at the top of her game. She's a successful magazine editor, she's engaged, and her relationship with Emily is better than ever. But when Miranda Priestly makes a grand return, she flips Andy's life upside down...again.

Stay tuned for more news on The Devil Wears Prada sequel and read up on This Deleted Scene from The Devil Wears Prada Will Completely Change the Way You See Miranda Priestly for more.

There's no doubt that out of all the TV moms I've seen over the years, Lorelai Gilmore is one of the absolute best. At first glance, the Gilmore Girls leading lady might seem like the best mom ever just because she's fun, but it's way more than that. Lorelai totally understands and cares about Rory, and takes an interest in things she's interested in. She works hard to provide for their life in Stars Hollow, and can turn any horrible situation into something that feels more like an adventure (like getting the worst seats at a concert or staying up all night to study). But she's also not afraid to stand up for the people she cares about, even if it means making a scene. TLDR; I love Lorelai with my whole heart. Here are 6 moments that prove just how incredible Lorelai is.

She Believes In Second Chances

Warner Bros. Television

Lorelai is pretty vocal about how she thinks growing up with Richard and Emily Gilmore left her feeling stifled. So it's no surprise she encourages Rory to make her own decisions based on her own opinions. Does Rory end up making some pretty wild mistakes? Yes. But is Lorelai always there to help Rory figure out what happens next? Also yes.

One of my favorite moments comes from season 6, when Lorelai writes a letter encouraging Rory to give Logan another chance. Even though Lor and Logan don't necessarily get along, Lorelai understands that falling in love is "elusive and all-encompassing," and is a firm believer in second chances.

That's why when Lorelai tells Rory "when you fall under [love's] intoxicating spell, you have little recourse but to live out its devices. If you love this boy, maybe you want to give it another chance?" it's even more impactful.

Lorelai Always Comforts Rory, Even When She Messes Up

Warner Bros. Television

Both Gilmore girls are far from perfect, but one of their shining attributes is that, except for The Fight in season 5, they're always there for each other. And that includes when Rory messes up. At the end of season 4, Rory loses her virginity to Dean, who's still married to Lindsay. After a brief fight, Rory runs outside to call Dean, but breaks down in tears when Lindsay answers the phone. Lorelai tries to comfort her and get Rory to come back inside to talk, but Rory's the one who runs away.

Lorelai in no way excuses Rory's behavior, but the fact that she's willing to sideline the disagreement for a moment to make sure Rory's okay shows that her top priority is, and always will be, taking care of her daughter.

She's Confident & Unashamed

Warner Bros. Television

We recently broke down all the reasons Lorelai is Brat Summer personified, and her attitude is just another reason to love her. Not only does her perseverance, optimistic hope, and dedication pave the way for professional achievements like The Dragonfly Inn, but it's also a shining light for the whole series.

As someone whose personality is more similar to Rory's, every time I rewatch Gilmore Girls, Lorelai teaches me something new about what it means to be unashamedly myself. She reminds me just how fun it is to celebrate the quirkiest parts of myself, and her confidence makes me feel like I can be more confident.

Lorelai Takes Lane Under Her Wing

Warner Bros. Television

We've talked at length about how the Gilmore Girls writers could have done so much better with Lane Kim's storyline. Even creator Amy Sherman-Palladino, who wasn't involved with GG season 7, revealed she would have preferred Lane's story turn out different. But one thing I do love about Lane's story is how much she clicks with Lorelai.

Lorelai loves talking with Lane, and giving her guidance when she asks for it. She's more than happy to spend time together, which I think is all Lane really wants from Mrs. Kim. And just like she talks with Rory about books and schools, Lorelai bonds with Lane over music, giving Lane a space to feel creative and inspired. Plus, she even plans Lane's bachelorette party! (Which also goes to show Rory takes Lane for granted too...)

Rory and Lane are both incredibly independent women, but it never hurts to know someone has your back.

She Knows When To Wallow

Warner Bros. Television

Whether you're getting over a breakup or you're just having a bad day, I think it's important to know when to wallow (AKA, when to indulge in your comfort foods & comfort TV shows, and let yourself rest). And Lorelai agrees. Knowing how painful heartbreak can be, Lorelai encourages Rory to take it easy after Dean breaks up with her for the first time...but goes along with Rory's productive Saturday list anyway.

And when Rory's finally ready to wallow with a bucket of ice cream? Lorelai kisses her on the forehead and wraps her arms around her (after ordering a pizza, of course).

She Celebrates Simple Moments

Warner Bros. Television

And finally, Loreali's ability to turn ordinary life moments into extraordinary memories might just be the best thing about her. This is something my own mom did a phenomenal job of, whether we were having a grand Thanksgiving sleepover on the living room floor or turning a family night into a sushi extravaganza. Lorelai's version of those moments? Turning the first snowfall of the year into a beautiful celebration, embarking on a grand Harvard road trip, and throwing the most epic Sweet Sixteen. And those moments are just as special for us as they are for Rory.

In the spirit of The Office reboot and the potential Modern Family reunion, fans of Parks and Rec have been begging for their favorite stars to reunite. (And by "fans," we're talking about ourselves). We can thank the show for Galentine's Day, Treat Yourself Thursdays, and a brand new Parks and Recreation cast reunion! At the premiere for Marvel's new show Agatha All Along, series stars Kathryn Hahn and Aubrey Plaza were joined on the purple carpet by Amy Poehler and Adam Scott.

Amy and Adam played Leslie Knope and Ben Wyatt on the NBC sitcom, which ran from 2009-2015. Aubrey played fan-favorite April Ludgate while Kathryn frequently guest starred as Jen Barkley. And this reunion IMMEDIATELY gave us the same dose of serotonin that our favorite Parks and Rec episodes do. Check out the adorable video below!

See The Latest 'Parks And Recreation' Cast Reunion!

"Members of the Pawnee Parks & Rec Department have arrived at the premiere of #AgathaAllAlong," the official Marvel Studios Instagram account said in a video of Kathryn Hahn, Aubrey Plaza, Adam Scott, and Amy Poehler laughing on the carpet. In the spooky spirit of the Marvel title, the three women wore gorgeous black dresses while Adam opted for jeans, a button down, and a blazer.

"That was insane," Aubrey Plaza told Entertainment Tonight. "I had no idea that was gonna happen...I knew Amy was here [but] I didn't know Adam was coming. Look, you can't stop it. The Parks and Rec buddies are never gonna fail."

While Aubrey's April shared plenty of screen time with Leslie (especially after joining Leslie's City Council campaign), she never actually got to act alongside Katheryn Hahn.

Kathryn told The Hollywood Reporterthat working with Aubrey Plaza “was a dream. We had never had any scenes together in Parks and Rec, I think we passed each other in hallways, but for this to be the first time we really worked together was incredible. I think she’s such an extraordinary actor so to be able to play with her like this was so fun.”

As surprising as the Parks and Recreation cast reunion (and Aubrey Plaza and Kathryn Hahn's team up on Agatha All Along) was, this isn't the first time the cast has talked about getting back together.

Chris Pratt told E! News that he misses his character Andy, who married April in season 3, just as much as fans do. “I would love [a reboot]. I know I would do it...It films like 10 minutes from my house, so that would be dope.”

“I’ll speak for everybody and say we would all do it,” Amy Poehler told Ellen DeGeneres in 2018. “I think we’d all do it someday, it’d be amazing.”
