Every year the shoes that are seen the most at European fashion weeks are like a litmus test of the trends that we will see develop better throughout the year. In London, for example, during the fashion week that ended yesterday, the presence of sneakers continued to recede, seeing instead the increase in popularity of wellington boots, or puddle boots, born in the United Kingdom, and unconventional heeled shoes: whether they are cyclopean platformers, tabi by Margiela or extravagant décolleté by Bottega Veneta or colorful boots with a western flavor,  eclecticism and originality are back in fashion. 

Another on-the-rise trend would seem to be that of semi-formal shoes: that is, leather moccasins and ankle boots that are more formal than a sneaker, but more relaxed than a leather brogue. In any case the first rule is fantasy - everything works, as long as you do not get bored.
