It may still be sandal season on the calendar, but style-wise? Everyone’s already thinking ahead to fall. That’s exactly why suede ballet flats are suddenly everywhere. Case in point: Karlie Kloss’s recent outfit.

While promoting her new book Spaghetti Code, Kloss was photographed in L.A. wearing an elegant skirt outfit. The look included a white pleated midi skirt paired with a striped rugby shirt. For shoes, she chose suede ballet flats, a high-vamp style in olive green. She completed the ensemble with retro sunglasses and her book in hand.

Suede ballet flats are ideal for fall, but they’re also great for transitional weather when it’s warm but you’re beginning to dress for fall. Whether worn with jean shorts, a minidress, or a linen set, they instantly lend any summer look a more autumnal touch. On top of that, the suede texture adds warmth and richness without feeling heavy.
