Trends: Loafers (and how to make them look fashionable)

The newest old trend on the streets of big, fashionable cities is...drumroll please...women's loafers! I'm in love with this trend for two reasons: 1. Loafers are extremely comfy. 2. Can be dressed up and down.

But beware, my fellow fashionistas! Wearing loafers the wrong way can make you look like granny-gone-wrong, and thats not fabulous at all. So I've compiled the best ways to wear women's loafers (in my opinion, of course), as well as some great options for purchasing your own classic yet modern pair!

The J Crew Way: Socks & Pleated Skirt (J Crew Fall collection 2011)

Contrasting & Sexy (J Crew Fall collection 2011)
