The Chicest People I Know Are Already Styling Cropped Jeans With This Elegant Autumn Shoe Trend

This transitional-weather period is when our wardrobes need to be ready for anything. Think smart layers that can be thrown on if a chill sets in, swapping out cut-offs for jeans and turning to colours that feel more in tune with the changing seasons. Personally, I like to start with my shoes, and it seems one of our favourite chic A-listers agrees. After months of vibrant colours and toe-baring styles, Dakota Johnson shows that sometimes, nothing's better than the classics, stepping out this week in a pair of rich burgundy ballet flats.

Spotted in New York City, Dakota gave her casually polished press-junket look a sleek lift with a pair of maroon flats. The berry hue worked perfectly with the muted vinyl finish, injecting some strong yet subtle colour into the otherwise neutral look. Her French-feeling ensemble of a cropped checked blazer, black tank top and distressed cropped jeans would’ve looked just as polished with black or beige, but luxe burgundy adds a chic autumnal touch.
And as cooler weather continues to creep closer, ballet flats in this deep shade of red feel like a no-brainer to polish the jeans, trousers and heavy skirts we're about to wear on repeat. Take a cue from Dakota and shop the best burgundy ballet flats below.

I can't believe every size of this elegant, foot-cooning pair from COS is still in stock.

These also come in a shearling-lined version—perfect if you're susceptible to cold feet.

I have it on good authority that these are some of the comfiest ballet flats on the market.
