Fall Sandals — The Chief Blonde Picks

October 26, 2015 By Shelley Zurek 95 Comments

Fall Sandals? Why Not?

This is a Fashionista Events opportunity

What exactly is a Fall Sandal?

It’s a sandal that you wear in the Fall…duh! But more specifically, it’s a sandal that fits the traditional definition of a sandal (open toe, strapy) but adds a fall twist with darker or deeper colors, heavy suedes and thicker leathers, and sometimes a wider chunkier look. Fall sandals steer away from the light airy look of summer sandals and instead seem to say “I’m warm and sturdy but still embracing all the sunshine”.

I am crazy about the Bar III fall sandals above from Macy’s exclusive line. They define the fall sandal look. Also these Bar III fall sandals nail the trend as well:

Macys Bar III Siren Platform Wedge Fall Sandals

 ($89)

I find the wedge on the above fall sandal very ’70s and bohemian, which is quite in at the moment.

Steve Madden Women's Fringly Macys Fall Sandal

($129)

This fringe sandal trend seemed to gain steam last fall but I saw some fashion bloggers wearing these sandals in the summer. To be honest, it made me cringe. While I find this the perfect fall sandal, for summer it seems like overkill. What do you think?

Fall Sandal Flats

Madden Girl Booming Whipstich T-Strap Footbed Fall Sandals

 ($49, Sale $34)

I’ll be honest with you, I never cared for the Birkenstock/Earth Shoe look the first time around and I still don’t like it. I find the silhouette just plain ugly and unflattering on almost everyone. However, this shoe is transitioning to fall on the feet of many young/hipster/hippy women and men so it’s appeal can’t be denied.

Another flat fall sandal that I do like is this cute thong from Lucky Brand:

Macys Lucky Brand Women's Wekka Fringe Flat Thong Fall Sandals

($69, Sale $48)

    awesome idea! I love wearing handle/flipflops all year so I like having options that fit more into the cooler seasons.

    I love the idea of fall sandals. I always get a little depressed when I put my summer sandals away. The Bar iii Macys Nerisa Block Heel Platform Dress Fall Sandals are my favorite.

    I prefer closed shoes for fall but the first two are cute. I’m not a fan of the fringe that’s so popular now.

    I love all of these sandals! I live in Georgia so its sandals weather until about October unless it rains of course. I prefer sandals and flip flops over pumps and sneakers any season of the year 😉

    I love the sandals, but unfortunately have to wear closed toe shoes. The Steve Madden Women’s Fringly Macys Fall Sandal are very nice.

    Nope. None of these for me, thanks. Fall means keeping my toes warm.

    My gosh, your heels would be higher than the tip of the Burj Khalifa in those Macy’s Bar III Nerisa Block Heel Platform Dress Fall Sandals. I guess if you’re up to the challenge, more power to ya! 😀

    God bless,

    I’m seriously digging those top ones in the camel color! Living in MN I would’ve never been able to wear those, but now that we’re in MD where it’s still in the upper 60s, I could totally wear those right now!
