10 Gorgeous Loafers That Will Bring You To New Heights

Put your best loafer forward

by Marissa Smith

The latest shoe trend definitely channels your inner school girl. That's right: Loafers are back.

The instantly recognizable silhouette of a heeled loafer screams (or maybe that's whispers?) librarian, but in the best way possible. Inspired by (and including) the covetable block-heeled Gucci loafer, we've found 10 gorgeous pairs that are worthy of your closet.

Try pairing these with a fun pair of fishnet tights (or something patterned and sheer) and with an A-line miniskirt, and you'll automatically be good to go. To make sure you don't feel too much like a librarian, you can pair these with a distressed boyfriend jean and a chunky sock. You can also go metallic or try a bright color to add something personal and different to your loafer look. There's no excuse to be a plain Jane!
