Footwear style trends keep things fresh and interesting, but there’s something to be said for classic shoes that have stood the test of time, too, so every wardrobe should include both. With Mother’s Day on the horizon, here are some elegant ideas for gifting mom, or for putting your best foot forward when the occasion arises.

You absolutely cannot go wrong with Hermes in any realm, for any gift occasion.
