Trend: Loafers

When the weather permits I walk to work. And when I say walk to work, I mean more than twenty blocks. Frankly, I wouldn’t be caught dead swinging into the office in my sneakers, so loafers are my go-to shoe. Lately, loafers have moved from the standard Penny variety to something of a novelty shoe in tons of different prints and materials, and I definitely take advantage of the wilder options.

Here are a few of my favorites that I will be hitting the pavement in this fall.
