With a new year freshly kicked off, I'm all about leveling up my 2023 wardrobe, and IMO, shoes are such a worthy style investment. Especially if you walk a ton (I see you, fellow city dwellers) you know how much wear they get, so refreshing your footwear roster is always a good idea. You can always count on some killer kicks to do the most for your 'fit, whether it's a bold statement style that totally hogs the spotlight (not mad about it!) or a pair that's like the missing puzzle piece to flawlessly tie a look together.
