This Not-Black, Not-Brown Loafer Color Trend Makes Every Outfit 10x Cooler

I love a pair of loafers, and tend to lean toward black or brown ones, in general, during fall and winter. That said, a fresh loafer color trend is giving them some competition. Tessa Thompson was recently spotted wearing the color trend in question in NYC, paired with an all-black outfit. It’s a color palette she has an affinity for, but instead of going the easy route and wearing black loafers, she opted for an even chicer shoe color trend: burgundy loafers.

Her entire outfit, which was already effortlessly city-coded, included a leather coat layered over a simple black drawstring hoodie, black pants, a denim baseball cap, and a black leather handbag. Now, she was already wearing a cool outfit, but the shoes added a simple yet eye-catching pop of color that completed her outfit and made it look 10x cooler. It’s such an easy, yet very effective, swap.

If you’re on the hunt for a fresh way to make your outfits look more interesting this time of year, keep scrolling to recreate Thompson’s look and shop more burgundy loafers.
