Megan Fox

Megan Fox is always a source of style inspiration. She brings the fashion heat, flaunting fall-approved wardrobe staples, such as brown leather skirts, seasonal blazers, and autumn-perfect loafers — and she continued her streak yesterday.

Arriving on the set of  The Drew Barrymore Show, Fox put a spin on the traditional pantsuit, wearing a sexy cropped jacket and coordinating mini shorts. She layered a long, tan trench coat overtop and accessorized with cherry-red sunglasses, large gold hoops, and the sweetest blue butterfly clips. But it was her shoes that stole the show.

Fox slipped on shiny, chili-red stilettos complete with a pointed toe and a modest heel, a style vastly different from her usual shoes. But honestly, these may be her most practical and versatile footwear choice yet. They’re classy and sexy, giving you the freedom to wear them just about anywhere.

Take these Calvin Klein Gayle pumps, for example. They’re simple, sophisticated, and even a bit retro, putting a spin on traditional pointed-toe pumps. The short heel makes wearing them to work totally feasible, while the sleek silhouette can easily transition to happy hour and even date night.

Styling similar shoes, such as these oxblood colored Marc Fisher heels, doesn’t have to be difficult. Take notes from Fox and go the professional route by reaching for a pair of chic trousers and adding a buttoned-up vest. On the other hand, you can turn these into an elegant closet staple with a black silk dress and statement necklace. Even better, dress them down with some mom jeans, a white poplin shirt, and matching bag. Either way, the Fox-inspired shoes are sure to become your go-tos for so many occasions.

You can even add your own twist to the actress’ shoes. Opt for a slingback option for a Parisian take on the style or add a d'Orsay silhouette to your collection instead. The secret is in the pointed toe and deep red hue — and if you’re a holiday devotee like yours truly, they make for the perfect festive footwear for all of your upcoming parties, gatherings, and merry cherry.
