Everyone has some level of obsession with shoes and with recent shoe trends coming in, my obsession for shoes has only grown. 

 

Shoes are my favorite thing to shop for. There are so many different styles of shoes that you can never have enough.

 

With the incredible style trends coming in for 2021, the shoe trends that are making their way into the fashion world are all must-haves in my book. There are a bunch of different shoes currently taking the fashion world by storm, but here are 6 of my favorites so far:

Cowboy boots, mostly black and white ones 

As I am a die-hard country fan, I am totally all over this trend. I’ve seen people rocking ankle-length cowboy boots as well as the ones that go up to your shin.

 

Either way, they are adorable. They can go with anything from a dress to denim shorts. These boots will look amazing with whatever you decide to pair them with. 

French heels

Shoes with the tiny heel are here to stay and you definitely can’t go wrong with these. 

 

They are the perfect spring/summer shoes. French heels come in so many different styles, you will surely find a pair that suits you. You can wear them for any occasion and rock them flawlessly.

Square toe boots

The square toe is absolutely back in style and it’s personally my favorite. They match with everything and to be honest, I don’t see them going out of style any time soon. 

 

The majority of the booties that I own have the square toe and I am nothing short of obsessed with them. To say I wear them everywhere would be an understatement. I totally recommend trying a pair out.

Combat boots

I am in love with combat boots. 

 

They go with everything and they tie every outfit together perfectly, no matter what you have on. These are definitely my next purchase.

Chunky white sneakers

These are the perfect mix of comfort and luxury. You can rock them with anything from sweatpants to a dress and they will look perfect. 

 

Super adorable and an easy go-to shoe. There are so many different kinds of chunky white sneakers, you can’t go wrong with whatever style you decide to go with. The vibes with these shoes are unmatched.

Platform sandals 

These are perfect for the summertime. They come in so many different styles and are the perfect sandal for when you want to dress up a little bit but you don’t want to wear heels. 

 

They are so comfortable, I wear mine all the time.

As I said earlier, you can never have too many shoes. 2021 has been absolutely killing the game with the style trends, and the latest shoe trends are just the icing on the cake. 

 

There isn’t one I am not obsessed with. Speaking from the viewpoint of a shopaholic, I need all of these to be in my closet as soon as possible!
