Time to pack up your strappy flip-flops and summer sandals because boot season is finally here! If your fall footwear could use a refresh, DSW is making it easy to update your collection with its latest shoe and accessory lineup. For this edition of Step Into Style, Shop TODAY contributor Chassie Post stopped by Studio 1A to share her favorites from the autumnal assortment — including select styles that are 25% off with our exclusive code.
To kick off boot season, Post picked out a pair from Frye & Co. that is sure to be worn on repeat throughout the coming months. Not only does the western style come in 11 playful colors like banana yellow and dusty rose, but it’s also available in standard and wide calf sizes to ensure a comfortable fit. Also on the docket are leather loafers for men and women — both with a cushioned footbed, so they’re just as functional as they are fashionable. Speaking of, did you know that Dr. Scholl’s has entered the clog game? Post spotted slip-ons with a chic wood-block heel that just so happens to have built-in arch support. And that’s not the only name brand that made it into the mix: There are also Adidas sneakers, Lucky Brand handbags and more that are now a fraction of the price for a limited time.

DSW shoes and accessories seen on TODAY
Loafers are one of the biggest fall shoe trends on Post’s radar for both men and women. She highlights the versatility of this faux-suede ladies’ style: Wear them without socks while the weather is still warm, then add socks or tights in fall and winter. Pair them with jeans, trousers, skirts, dresses and more — and score them for less than $40 with our limited-time code.
For the guys, Post recommends the Payton Loafer from Steve Madden. The refined take on a classic silhouette can dress up a pair of jeans or relax a suit. Available in a leather or suede upper with a rounded toe and cushioned footbed, this loafer offers both style and comfort.
While we’re on the topic of suede, Post is excited to see the cozy texture pop up in more casual styles like sneakers, too. Here, it’s combined with another major shoe trend: soccer-inspired styles. Score the iconic three-stripe look in this statement-making maroon.
The Breaknet Sleek Sneaker comes in more fall-ready shades to suit your style, including light pink and a neutral tan and white.
The change of seasons is the perfect time to update your everyday bag, and Post is loving this style from Lucky Brand. The slouchy silhouette, fall hues and suede fabric are right on trend. And don’t let the word mini fool you: Post says this bag is surprisingly spacious, with interior pockets for organization and a magnetic closure to help keep items secure.
The ‘70s called, and we’re answering! Clogs are everywhere this season, and Post loves that Dr. Scholl’s, a brand synonymous with comfort, is getting in on the trend. Swap out your summer flip-flops and slip into these instead for easy, stylish dressing. We love the microsuede upper, gold-tone hardware and anti-odor footbed.
Frye is one of those timeless brands that never goes out of style: In fact, Post says online searches for Fry & Co. are up 5,000% year over year! This quintessential western boot comes in 11 colors (including fun hues like banana yellow and dusty blue) and both standard and wide-calf sizing. We love the chunky rounded toe and 2-inch block heels for just the right amount of lift. They make everything look effortlessly cool: fall dresses, jeans, skirts and beyond. Right now, the dusty rose and cognac colors are on sale for less than $100!
