Finding the perfect shoe for back-to-school can be tricky; You need one that's comfortable enough to walk the halls during the day, but you also need to look current. From comfy sneakers to menswear-inspired oxfords, there are plenty of options to keep your feet happy while looking stylish. Here are the hottest back-to-school shoe trends for fall 2010:

Menswear-inspired oxford shoes, or brogues, are big for fall 2010. Worn with ankle-length pants or a cutesy floral print skirt, these shoes will add personality to your wardrobe.

Ballet: Gap "Studded Bow Ballet Flats" in Flint Gray, $49.50

Ballet flats are feminine and always chic, so it's hard to go wrong with a pair. I'd suggest choosing a plain black pair to wear as a basic, and then maybe a striped or studded style for extra oomph.

Sneaker: Keds "Champion Leopard," $40

Sneakers are always back-to-school must haves, and this season is no different. Vivid colors, graphic prints and embellishments all make them more interesting this time around.
