Fall Sandals — The Chief Blonde Picks

October 26, 2015 By Shelley Zurek 95 Comments

Fall Sandals? Why Not?

This is a Fashionista Events opportunity

Bar iii Macys Nerisa Block Heel Platform Dress Fall Sandals

($109)

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)

    Most of them are too high for me…I can’t wear wedges or heels, because I’m not ladylike at all…as a matter of fact, fall is all about boots for me!

    I love the look of the Bar III sandals, but would only have a very short window to wear them here.

    I like sandals. I’m warm natured enough to wear them in the fall, too. I like that you mentioned flats, wedges, and heels. Good to have choices and great darker colors.

    I love the idea of fall sandals, because I LOVE sandals! I wear sandals as long as I can, until it drops in the 30s! 😀

    Very stylish, but I think the only one I would actually wear is the Madden Girl flat. I’m afraid I would just topple over in those tall ones!

    For me, sandals are for the summertime and will never have high heels (or fringe).

    I love all of the sandals. I can’t wait till some company comes out with Winter Sandals. The flat sandal in blue is awesome!

    I wear sandals until the snow flies. I even wear socks with them until it’s too cold (I know what you’re thinking). Strangely enough, I’m not fond of the idea of “fall” sandals.
