Fashion Friday: Ode to the Mocassin.

Oh, Mr. Mocassin. I have no idea how I feel about you. You kind of look like a slipper, and sometimes make it look like one is trying to channel Pocahontas as a fashion guru, but yet you still come back in style every so often. You are comfy as heck, but can you look good??

Minnetonka is the original, and still available. I am going to go out on a limb and make the call that mocassins will be a HUGE trend for fall. HEre’s how I know-

Nine West’s “so happy” moc in sunny yellow at left, and Cole Haan’s wedge moc version, complete with Nike Air!

Target has a bevy of moc’s for fall in bright colors and neutrals!

Christian Laboutin trades in his perfect nude wedge heels for a nude penny loafer moccasin for fall, left, and Tod’s crafts a snazzy feminine driving loafer moc as well, right.

Tory Burch has a couple styles available for fall- and you know if Tory’s making them, they will be a huge hit.

Go grey with the Cole Haan Emerson moc. Or Old Navy’s version.

What do you think? Will you be rocking a pair when the weather gets chilly?

    I like the Todd’s the best, but of course they come with the highest price tag.

    most of what you have shown are not mocs but driving shoes

    absolutely ! they even have those little kits so you can make them yourself! also – the fur lined from Bean’s are wonderful.

    I have a problem with them. I love them when I see them (it’s what I thought when I saw your post) and I tell to myself that I’m going to buy a pair, but when I put them on… I look so ridiculous!! I’m like a fairy tale prince… I’m sure this winter will be the same!

    I love driving mocs, especially! Definitely will be trying the Target ones, too! Thanks!

    oooh, tough call! i can’t say they’re going to be flattering on most peeps, and personally, gone are the days of me rockin’ the east coast preppy look!
    and lord knows my man does not dig flats : )

    It wasn’t that long ago that these were “in” right? Like 3 years ago? I still have a couple pair that I hadn’t gotten around to giving to goodwill yet. Does this mean ballet flats are “out”? I’m so confused. Next thing you know the damn Uggs will be cool again.

    I bought some blue ones from Payless of all places this past spring (or was it fall?). I love them! My boyfriend says they look like cute boat shoes, so I guess they get the male vote as well :)

    Heading over to Target today! I didn’t realize they had so many cute things! Great tip, thanks!! I also love the ones done by “Tory”!!
