Hey friends!! It’s time to talk about my favorite part of the outfit…the SHOES!! Now, I am not a huge fan of jewelry. Yes, I wear my wedding ring, my very dainty personalized necklace and small earrings but I prefer to wear my statement on my feet! Shoes can really make or break an outfit but don’t have to break the bank. Here are my go-to’s for the Fall and they are all $25 or less! Click the hyperlink and it will take you straight to the shoe and the retailer. Happy shopping!

PSA: YOU CAN WEAR WHITE AFTER LABOR DAY! Now, that we have that out of the way, these white mules from Target are so comfortable, go with everything and are $24.99. I love it that you can just slip them on, with jeans, leggings, skirts, I mean, if you look back on my photos, you can see how much I wear them!

Not pictured are these white booties that I bought from Charlotte Russe that haven’t arrived yet. I cannot wait to get these and style them for y’all!

These peep toe booties from JC Penney are only $15 right now. They come in this taupe color and black. I love both colors because they would both go with anything. The perforated detailing and block heel are really good features and I would honestly rather wear a peep toe transitioning into cooler weather. And, if you live in the Deep South like me, you know that could take a while.

These fur mules are probably some of my all time favorite shoes! The are actually a Gucci knock off but who cares? I’m not paying Gucci’s price so these puppies are just $24.99 at Target. I wore them last winter and they really keep your feet warm. If you aren’t a fan of the fur, they carry the plain black and I like those just as well.

Ooooh, la la!! These leopard booties are giving me life right now! Walmart is killing it with their shoe game. These are only $19.97 and you can order online and pick up in store. Animal print works as a neutral so it basically goes with everything and is never going out of style!

DATE NIGHT OUTFIT IDEA: Black jeans or Spanx faux leather leggings, black sweater, red lip, leopard booties!

 

Every girl needs a good pair of pointed toe flats in her closet and Charlotte Russe has got you covered! The exact pair I bought must have sold out because I couldn’t find them on their site but I’ve linked a similar pair and they are only $15!

Y’all! These lace up sneakers are so comfortable! I wear them all the time! The are only $19.99 and right now Payless is having a BOGO plus an extra 25% off sale right now! If I want to look a little more put together, I will wear these instead of my Adidas. I wear these with dresses, leggings, jeans, you name it. And if you wear tennies with no socks like me, these are so soft on the inside!

The Over the Knee Boot. Not everyone is a fan, because not everyone thinks they can wear them. I have seen these on girls that are 4’11 and on girls that are 5’9 and they look great on both! I lucked up and got my OTK boots on clearance for $15 from an online boutique, Two Chicks on a Clothesline, who has awesome shoes, but they have unfortunately sold out of these. These over the knee boots from Charlotte Russe are only $25 and I love the color and that they tie in the back. They also have a lower heel.

I had to add my gold metallic mules on here because I love these shoes so much! Metallic is huge right now but I also love the shine! These are only $12 but there is only a size 7 left. Target has some silver metallic mules for $22.99 that are pointed and equally as awesome!

Lastly, the snakeskin sneakers. You will definitely turn heads in these. I have had so many compliments on these shoes. As I have said before about animal print, it works as a neutral so it goes with pretty much everything. I got these from The Mint Julep Boutique but I would suggest Red Dress Boutique because they are only $22. I paid $24 but only because I had a $10 off coupon.

I hope this helps you stay trendy for less this Fall! I look forward to styling these different ways in the coming weeks. Any questions about fit, just ask! For reference I wear a 6 and all shoes fit true to size but I always size up to a 6 1/2 in the mules.

One of my favorite money-saving things to do is to buy several closet staple pieces and style them several different ways. In this post, I’m going to to show you how to style this simple Arizona Short Sleeve Wrap Dress. I found my exact dress at JC Penney several months ago and it is no longer online, but the one I have linked will work the just the same! And it’s only $14!

Can we say weekend vibes?! This the the perfect casual, comfy outfit! Throw on these Lace Up Sneakers for just $19 and a flannel shirt and you’re good to go!

TIP: Payless Shoes always has a sale going on with a promo code when you check out. Sign up for their e-mails and texts to be alerted and you will also receive a promo code!

 

A denim jacket is a good way to add something extra to any outfit but I LOVE them with dresses and booties, especially in the Fall. This particular one was from TJ Maxx. Walmart has a great selection of booties and shoes in general including these Faded Glory Booties for just $19.

This utility vest will take you places! And I mean all year long! It is light weight and can be cinched at the waist. Ahhh, so many possibilites! And, these peep toe booties are super comfy especially with the block heel. This entire outfit is from JC Penney and they are currently having a 30% off sale with code FLASH8 but act fast because it ends on 10/14 at midnight!

OK, you know I cannot style an outfit and leave a cardigan out! This Arizona Long Sleeve Cardigan is the perfect mustard/rust color for fall and can in itself be worn multiple ways! I paired it here with these $19 Walmart leopard booties and a skinny belt around the waist for a little more flirty feel…date night perhaps?

And last, but certainly not least is the sweater over a dress option! I am in love with this idea because it gives the illusion that you are wearing a skirt instead. This bright bell sleeved number is from Target clearance so I could not link it but this look can be recreated with any sweater. If it’s too long, you can knot it on the side or middle. Animal print works as a neutral, so it goes with everything. I have always loved animal print but I am totally crushing on snakeskin right now and these sneaker style shoes. These snakeskin sneakers from The Mint Julep Boutique are so good! If you have never ordered from them, you can receive a promo code via email for $10 off of your first order. I had originally bought my snakeskin shoes from Charlotte Russe for $11 on clearance but my order was canceled because my size ran out so this was the only place that had them in stock!

Thanks for stopping by and stay tuned til next time!! 

XOXO
