Zappos

Promising review: "I LOVE these shoes. I've worn them hiking on gravel, walking around town, and just doing some dog walking around my neighborhood and they have been very comfortable.

Zappos

Promising review: "I got these in black as a quality alternative for the Gucci Princetown mules. The shoe is elegant and sturdy while feeling lightweight. There is a small ridge inside meant for your toes to grasp. I plan to wear them to work and casual outings." —Mannat

Price: $105 (available in sizes 4–14 and 12 colors)

21. A pair of Converse sneakers because you really can't go wrong with some Chuck Taylors. Obvi, pair them with jeans, but Demi Lovato also said that we can wear our Converse with a dress, so you could also def pair them with a dress. 

Zappos

Promising review: "What can I say about my Chucks other than they're just the golden standard of cool and comfortable. Same lovely shoes. I was also able to take the inserts out to put in my own for a little more arch support (I've had plantar fasciitis before and do that in almost every shoe). Love these." —Anonymous

23. The Disquette Uggs — a cozy fall must-have that are super cutesy *and* will feel like the comfiest cushioned slippers you've ever worn. But they're even better than a regular ol' pair of slippers cuz you can wear them outta the house. If you love to look stylish, even on lounge-y days where you're running errands in sweats, grab these. 

Zappos

Price: $49.99+ (available in sizes 6–12 and two colors)

25. A pair of Chelsea rain boots that'll keep you looking stylish while it's drizzling outside. Who said all rain boots had to be ugly? Definitely not these chic beauties.

27. A pair of wide calf-friendly leather boots with a cushioned insole and stretch material to ensure a comfy fit. They'll add some edgy flair to your closet and pair perfectly with *so* many of your fall outfits. 

Zappos

Promising review: "These boots are worth every penny! Because of nerve pains in my feet, I have to wear tennis shoes all year. To have a pair of dress boots that fit perfectly, even on large calves, is a total luxury. The material is soft, the color/shine is ideal, the footbed is roomy in the toes but supportive in the arch, and the valves stretch. There's no pulling or tugging anywhere. They just zip up, and I'm on my way! I'm thrilled and will buy from this maker again!" —Anonymous

Price: $289.95 (available in sizes 4–12 and three widths)
