We love NYFW for a plethora of reasons: the street style, the makeup, the haute couture. But no runway fashion trend makes a girl swoon quite like the shoes.

We have a theory about our seemingly innate love for shoe trends. See, unlike jeans or dresses, shoes don't discriminate against body type. No matter your size, quality footwear looks equally pretty on your feet.

Speaking of quality footwear, the spring shoes we saw on the catwalk this NYFW were particularly stunning. We spied gorgeous shoe trends from cutouts to fringe and narrowed down our 17 favorite pairs of the season. Here, the best shoe trends from NYFW -- and how to snag a few of them for yourself.
