Sandals Aren't My Priority Anymore—Closed-Toe Shoes in This Expensive-Looking Color Are
Hailey Bieber was spotted boarding a private jet, swapping her flip-flops for brown closed-toe mules. Discover and shop the perfect transitional footwear item ahead.

Believe it or not, September 1 is just around the corner, and for many, it signals the unofficial start of fall. I'm so excited that I've already begun pulling out my transitional wardrobe pieces, and it seems that I'm not alone. Hailey Bieber was just spotted sporting a fall-ready shoe trend.
This week, Bieber posted a series of images on Instagram, and in one of them, she was boarding a private jet, holding bags of In-N-Out Burger and wearing a short gray trench coat with black shorts. On her feet? Brown heeled mules.
Throughout this summer, Bieber has been repeatedly wearing her Toteme kitten-heel flip-flops. However, she's now ditching her sandals for closed-toe heels. While this is the first time I've seen her wearing them, at least in the past few months, I anticipate her wearing them more and more as fall approaches. I anticipate she'll pair them with her go-to pedal pushers, blazers, white tank tops, and baggy jeans. Inspired to replicate her look and add a pair to your wardrobe? Keep scrolling—I've put together an edit of the best brown mules available now.

I'd style these with wide-leg jeans and a blouse or elevated sweatpants and a tank.
