I'm Forever Loyal to a Chic Black Shoe Style—5 Standout Picks I'm Eyeing Right Now
There is nothing like zeroing in on a hero closet piece that you can rely on time and again. One such piece for me is a chic black shoe style. In fact, you'd be hard-pressed to find any other color in my shoe collection, save for a stray leopard-print option or lighter-hued sneaker. I can't help but be loyal when a great black shoe goes with just about every look and aids in making my outfits look more elevated and put-together.
This season's black shoe offerings are especially chic, and there are five styles in particular that I am eyeing right now. Ranging from classic ballet flats and timeless slingback shoes to sleek boots and standout loafers, I rounded up a selection of favorites from each style category for you to peruse and shop below. Note, most are affordable picks that are not only stylish but comfortable as well. Good luck picking out just one style.
