Martha Stewart gave us major fall/winter pants and shoe combo inspo when she stepped out in New York to appear on "Today" on October 30. The homemaking queen looked chic and comfortable in her white jeans (because the long-standing 'no white after Labor day' fashion rule is outdated anyway) and slip-on low-key mules; the versatile shoe style that's proven super popular for fall 2026. Stewart slipped into the Merrell Encore Breeze 5 shoes in Aluminum and paired the pieces with white socks and a white knitted jumper, emblazoned with the Stars and Stripes and Olympics logo.

The outfit ensured Stewart looked put together but comfortable, as her gray footwear helped break up her otherwise all-white ensemble in a neutral, practical way. Shoes like these could easily be paired with other monochrome 'fits too, which is good news considering we've rounded up 26 monochromatic looks for a winning outfit on even your laziest days. While Stewart's exact shoe choice is also available in verbena (light blue), black, navy, and greige/citrine, if you're looking for a different shade, try the Cushionaire Sils Stretch Knit Cork Footbed Clogs or the Dearfoams Breathable Gracie Sneaker with Arch Support.

Martha Stewart's slip-on shoe style is particularly perfect for older women looking for footwear that's as easy to style as they are to put on. The backless, lace-less nature means there's no bending down required, while the lack of heel material makes them a go-to for those suspectable to blisters from rubbing footwear. Sporty clogs/mules like these are so versatile too, as they can be worn with or without socks (though we'd recommend with to keep your feet warm in the colder months).

We also love that Stewart's shoe choice gives sporty vibes without being too sporty. They're backless, so they're not a shoe to wear to the gym, but the sneaker-like thick sole and lack of heel ensures they're practical enough for running daily errands — even in the rain. Fall and winter are two of the most notorious seasons for needing practical footwear and pants (trips to the pumpkin patch, fall bonfires, and holiday shopping aren't exactly short dress and glam heel appropriate), and Stewart's look is a fun yet mature and sophisticated way to elevate a sportier aesthetic. If Stewart's Big Apple style isn't for you though, that's okay, because we've also got other outfit inspo to help you show off your favorite pair of mules.
