Feminine Oxfords for Fall

Exotic heels aren't the only shoes that ladies are slipping their feet into this fall – style mavens are upping the fashion ante and sporting old-fashioned oxfords. 

The traditionally solid-colored, laced-up men’s dress shoe, with a perforated pattern on the toe known as a "wingtip," has adopted a feminine appeal with bright colors, designs, and patterns.

Oxfords are the perfect complement to any outfit, as long as there is the right counterbalance of its masculine influence with a feminine silhouette or detail. Women are embracing this menswear classic, pairing them with anything from loose-fitting boyfriend jeans to cut-off shorts and dresses.

Oxfords are this year’s alternative to ballet flats – a comfortable addition to your fall shoe wardrobe that can be purchased at any price point.
