Ballet flats are still trending hard (they're here to stay this upcoming season) but we’re also seeing plenty of fresh takes on flats, from pointed-toe silhouettes to bow-embellished beauties. Take a peek below, as I share 8 styles that are chic, on-trend, and the best part? Affordable. In fact, all my picks today are under $150. Keep scrolling for the styles that will make your outfits look on-trend this fall.

It's all about sharp pointed toes this upcoming season—whether you go for whimsical details as spotted at Prada, or sculptural details as seen at Tory Burch, or sleek iterations at Giorgio Armani, adding a pair of pointed-toe flats is guaranteed to add a trend-forward touch to your looks.

Pretty bow details are set to be everywhere this fall—adding the perfect sweet and feminine touch to your look. Style with a cute mini or straight-leg jeans to show off the charming detail.

Yes, Mary-Janes continue their dominance into fall and we couldn't be happier! They work with practically every outfit and there are plenty of iterations to suit every taste and budget. Whether you style them with a maxi skirt or jeans, they'll make every outfit look on-trend.

Sequins! Rhinestones! Studs! The embellished flat continues its prominence this fall. The fashion girl loved trend will unquestionably amp up your basics in the chicest way possible.

From oxfords to brogues and loafers (as spotted from Miu Miu to Max Mara) menswear-inspired styles are gathering steam this fall—but let's be honest, they'll always remain a classic no matter what the season. Style them with a slouchy suit or chic mini skirt for an effortlessly-polished look.
