My one-bedroom apartment is seriously lacking in square footage, but I can still confidently say there's no such thing as owning too much footwear. Even though I'm a fashion writer, I always run into the predicament of not having the *right* shoe to go with my outfit, to which I end up cursing the very thought of Kim Kardashian's colossal closet in jealousy. (I'm human, after all.)
That said, I don't buy shoes on a whim, either. I like them to be equal parts trendy and classic, so I wear them way beyond a single season — and my go-to place to scoop them up is Nordstrom. Whether I'm looking for a new pair of work shoes for a special event, running sneakers for marathon training, or cute boots for a winter outing, I know that the retailer will never disappoint.
So if you're like me and always in need of giving your footwear collection a refresh, I've rounded up 25 pairs of top-rated shoes perfect for this winter and beyond.

1 Mary Jane Pumps
Vagabond Shoemakers Ansie Mary Jane Pump ($175)
If you're looking for Mary Janes with a slight edge, this pair fits the bill with its double straps, glossy finish, and chunky heel. We especially love them with sheer ankle socks, but you can also wear them without socks on warmer days. Our editor owns them and can't get over how comfortable they are. For more details and to see how she styles them, read our Vagabond Shoemakers Ansie Mary Jane Pump review.
Editor quote: "Because the shoes are so comfortable, I feel confident wearing them to work events, coworking spaces, dinner dates, and even just long days outside of my house. They ooze a polished and preppy vibe that feels formal yet still playful; you can get away with wearing them to the office and straight to a cocktail party afterward." — Kyley Warren, assistant editor, Commerce
2 Comfy Clogs
Birkenstock Boston Clog ($160)
For a comfortable clog, it doesn't get much better than Birkenstock's Boston Clog. The natural cork and latex footbed is built to hug the soles of your feet while offering plenty of support. This tan-colored suede goes with practically anything, so you'll be tempted to wear them constantly. Our editor owns a pair and loves how versatile they are. For more details and photos of how she styles them, read our Birkenstock Boston Clog review.
Editor quote: "I love the fact that these shoes are fashionable and can be paired with multiple outfits, that they're comfortable — even wearing them for long stretches of time — and that they're of amazing quality that I know will last me for years to come." — Renee Rodrigues, staff writer and social producer
3 Grunge-Inspired Sandals
Dr. Martens Blaire Sandal ($110)
An homage to '90s grunge with just a touch of modern edge, these Dr. Martens Blaire Sandals can be worn with everything from denim cut-offs to midi dresses. They run a bit large, so if you're between sizes, size down. Our editor tested them out and thinks they strike the perfect balance between style and comfort. For more details and to see how she styled them, read our Dr. Martens Blaire Sandal review.
Editor quote: "These Dr. Martens are the first chunky sandals I've bought where I haven't felt like I needed to sacrifice comfort for style — thanks, in part, to the shoe's contoured SoftWair footbed, which helps to provide added arch support." — Kyley Warren, assistant editor, Commerce
4 Minimalist Slide Sandals
Open Edit Linx Slide Sandal ($40)
The simple herringbone weave adds texture while the square toe adds a modern edge to these minimalist slide sandals. Available in this sandy color, as well as black, orange, and ivy, it's hard to choose a favorite.
5 Waterproof Slide Sandal
Birkenstock Arizona Waterproof Slide Sandal ($50)
Feather-light and waterproof, these sandals capture the ease and comfort Birkenstock's Arizona sandals are known for, but won't weight you down with the heavier cork sole and leather uppers. They're perfect for packing for a beach vacation or a day at the pool.
6 Running Sneakers
Cloudtilt Athletic Sneaker ($160)
If you're looking for a running shoe that has major cushioning with a lightweight sole, these Cloudtilt Sneakers are definitely worth trying. They offer a soft landing, whether you're going for a run, walking, or enjoying a step class. Grab them in this fresh lime and ivory palette or in two other color combinations.
7 Boho Slide Sandals
Katy Perry The Salvo Slide Sandal ($69, originally $98)
Featuring woven uppers, adjustable straps, and a cushioned memory foam footbed, these sandals are cute and easy to slip into when you need all day comfort. They come in this rich brown as well as yellow, gold, and black.
8 Velcro Strap Sneakers
Gola Coaster Low Top Sneaker ($75)
For a sporty but stylish look, these retro-style sneakers are perfect. They feature a textile upper and come in two other colors. The velcro straps make them especially convenient — no need to worry about stopping to re-tie your shoes throughout the day.
9 Ruffled Slide Sandals
Larroudé Ivy Ruffle Raffia Slide Sandal ($215)
If you want a statement shoe without the discomfort of a heel, these ruffled slide sandals are for you. Crafted from raffia with memory foam cushioned footbeds, they're comfortable enough to wear all day and can be dressed up or down.
10 Floral-Embroidered Heeled Sandals
Larroudé Brigite Ruffle Raffia Sandal ($315)
These daisy-embroidered, raffia heeled sandals couldn't be more perfect for spring. The two-inch block heels are easy to walk in while still giving the slightest height boost. They also feature memory foam cushioned footbeds to add to their all-day appeal.
