Plain or printed mules are a must-have for winter. As well as being on-trend, this fun and versatile shoe keep your tootsies warm and cozy when the weather is rather chilly outside. And the bonus? They’re super comfortable. Whether you’re meeting friends for coffee or heading out for a dinner date, there are many ways you can rock the mule this season.
1. With Casual Jeans
If you’re running errands and require throw-on footwear, simply slip on your mules and away you go. They add the perfect amount of sass to a casual tee and blue jeans combination. In fact, they look especially stylish with ripped or frayed denim due to the clashing textures. Team your ensemble with a cross-body bag and understated jewelry for simple, on-the-go chic. For smarter occasions, opt for a white frilled blouse or satin shirt with dark indigo or black skinny jeans and a small grab bag for a more polished aesthetic.

2. With a Cute Skirt
When temperatures are milder, mules look effortlessly edgy when paired with a cute skirt. Consider a graphic tee and solid-hued mini skirt with patterned mules for a bold, quirky appearance. Alternatively, opt for a denim or leather skirt to mix it up in terms of textures and add interest to your outfit. For dressier events, like evening cocktails with the girls, team plain mules with a flowing metallic midi-length skirt and neutral button-up shirt for utmost elegance. And don’t forget to incorporate a bold lip in a bright color, like ruby red, tangerine orange, or fuchsia pink, if you want to stand out from the crowd for all the right reasons.
3. With a Standout Red Suit
Feel like making the ultimate style statement? Try pairing printed mules with a color-popping suit that’s guaranteed to turn heads, like the leopard print mules and red suit combo. Ideal for work or play, this ensemble is just as practical as it is modern due to its androgynous nature. If you’ve got a whole day of office meetings, include a classic white button-up shirt and a large leather handbag or laptop bag to show that you mean business. On the other hand, merely swap the shirt for a silk cami and add a sequin or beaded clutch and sparkly jewelry for social scenarios. This will inevitably exhibit a look that’s the height of sophistication. Either way, mules are great for injecting more personality into your autumn/winter closet while simultaneously delivering an unparalleled level of comfort. I’m obsessed.
