The Best Trendy Sneakers for Grown Women
These days, sneakers are a must in most women's wardrobes. Being worn for gardening and galas, work and weekend, sneakers are an incredibly versatile shoe while also being quite comfortable. But just like jeans and eyebrows, sneakers go through trends and the wrong pair can make an otherwise stylish outfit look awkward and unfashionable, especially with us grown women.
The Best Trendy Sneakers for Grown Women
When you're over 40, it's hard to know which sneaker trends are cool and which look clueless. I originally wrote this post in 2021, but I update it each year because sneakers are not going out of fashion any time soon. In fact, it seems each year that sneakers just grow in popularity.
Along with the growth in popularity is the growth in brands, styles, and technology to make sneakers not just fashionable but also functional. In 2025, it is truly possible to be comfortable and chic at the same time. Below, I share my advice on picking out the best trendy sneakers for grown women and how to style trendy sneakers.
What Kind of Sneakers Are Stylish in 2025?
Does anyone else think of this clip from Crazy Stupid Love when they see the currently popular sneakers? The movie took place in 2011, and ever since, New Balance and other “old school” sneaker brands have gained popularity. Sneakers that were hot in the 70s, 80s, and 90s are back in vogue, and there are plenty of new brands on the scene that give off a retro vibe.
Even so, it's hard to accept the fact that the shoes we mocked over a decade ago are now cool. What makes it harder is that there are plenty of people like Steve Carell's character who never knew they had gone out of vogue and continue to rock them in a very un-ironic manner. How do you show you're wearing trendy sneakers because they are comfy and cool, not because you stopped caring about trends once you graduated from college?
First, Let's Discuss What Sneaker Trends are Hot in 2025
In this post, I often reiterate that you do not need to wear any current trend to look stylish. Comfort always trumps trends. We're grown-ass women; we have earned the right to wear whatever the hell we want, and that means comfy shoes that have us walk and live with confidence.
However, many of the 2025 sneaker trends are stylish and comfortable, so one of the trends I feature below may be perfect for your lifestyle, wardrobe, and feet! There are a lot of hot trends in sneakers this year, but I narrowed it down to the trends I feel are the best for us grown women and most likely to still be a hot trend this time next year (and hopefully years to come).
Suede Style
The top fabric for sneakers in 2025 is suede. You can still rock your leather and nylon sneakers, but when shopping, you will see that, especially with colored sneakers, they will primarily be of suede.

While suede may feel harder to care for, it's a sneaker fabric that is far more versatile. It can be dressed up and still be a great throw-on-and-go casual shoe. It looks more at home with fall and winter outfits but is also fresh in the warmer months. And suede holds color beautifully, giving this year's colors extra pop.
Slim and Sleek
Last year, I discussed the trend for lower profile and sleek sneakers… well this trend is still hot and getting even more sleek and slim. You will see sneakers that are very flexible, with thin soles and no front bumper. Sneakers for or inspired by martial arts are quite popular, as they are very trim, soft, and sleek.

While you will see sneakers that almost look like ballet flats with their slim, sleek silhouette, the retro classic style from the past couple of years is still going strong. Again, it's the more low-profile and slim options that reign supreme.
Velcro
Raise your hand if you too miss the Velcro-close sneakers of your youth. Well, they are back and now they're downright chic. I don't know if this trend will last as much as the others on this list, but go ahead and enjoy it for now.
Shop the collage: Gola | Dolce Vita | Silent D | Sam Edelman | Veronica Beard | Adidas | Veja | Charlotte Stone
More custom of a fit, easier to get shoes on and off, and as my teen would say, pulling apart the Velcro is so “satisfying,” I love a trend that is both fun and functional!
Animal Prints
I know a lot of you are excited for this… I mean leopard IS a neutral! Leopard and cheetah prints are the biggest animal print trend in sneakers, though I have seen a few zebra, snake, and just calfhair options out there.
Shop the collage: Maje | J. Crew | Silent D | Sam Edelman | Aldo | Adidas | Cole Haan | Alohas
These animal print sneakers are sleek, low profile, and usually a tactile fabric like suede and calfhair. Often, the animal print sneakers have visible stitching and look a bit more handmade. These can be everyday or an elevated comfort shoe to style with trousers and dresses.
Color
Color is BIG in 2025, with your sneakers often being the pop of color in an otherwise neutral or soft-toned outfit. You will see classic styles of sneakers like Adidas Gazelle, Nike Cortez, and Puma Palermo in all the colors of the rainbow and in quirky color combos.

Wear what makes you happy, but if you are looking for the hottest colors in sneakers for 2025, I'd say red, pink, and brown are taking the lead.
The New Neutrals
For decades, a clean white sneaker has been a versatile classic, worn with everything from activewear to cocktail pantsuits. In 2025, white is still cool (and you will see a lot of traditional brands and silhouettes in white), but other neutrals have gained traction and you may find they are more versatile, and easier to care for.
I shared in 2023 about the resurgence of black sneakers, and they have gained popularity since then. But along with black, you will see off-white, cream, tan, brown, and light gray.

This is great for those who may be allowed to wear sneakers now that they must dress to return to the office, those who feel white sneakers draw too much attention to their feet, and for a variety of skintones who desire a low-contrast option to let their outfits take the spotlight. They also are not going to show scuffs as easily as white!
Silver
In 2024, I mentioned silver sneakers were gaining in popularity, and this trend is even stronger in 2025. From subtle silver suede to chrome-like finishes, you will see plenty of silver sneakers this year and I believe this trend will last for a while.

Silver sneakers are great for those who like a statement shoe but want it to dress up or down. No need to wear silver jewelry with silver sneakers; mixing metals is very chic in 2025. Silver is a low-contrast option for many skintones, making it a great choice if you're wearing shorts, dresses, or cropped pants and want a more elongated effect. And gosh they are fun and get compliments even from critical teens!
For the best effect in 2025, look for sleek and low-profile options; I believe this will also ensure the shoe has style longevity. No need to toss any gold or rose gold sneakers; they're still cool but you will find far more silver options this year.
What Women's Sneaker Styles Are Classic?
For years, I recommended a plain, simple white sneaker like the Adidas Stan Smith, Nike Air Force 1, or Birkenstock Bend. And while such a sneaker is still a safe choice, sneakers have gotten more interesting and that interesting aspect will elevate your look and keep your closet basics fresh and modern.
If the sneaker is white, consider the branding (swoop, stripes, logo) in a color, even if that color is black. If you wish for a simpler sneaker that can dress up, I recommend going with an off-white or beige option. If you love color, I recommend going with your favorite hue so it will fit with your closet even if color trends change.
My picks for classic sneakers for grown-ass women are above and linked below, in no particular order:
- Puma Palermo
- Adidas Gazelle
- Nike Cortez
- Nike Killshot
- New Balance 327
- Veja Esplar
- Veja Campo
- Asics Skyhand
I'd also keep your Sambas, Stan Smiths, Superstars, Vans, and Chucks, but I wouldn't necessarily buy a new pair of them in 2025. These sneakers are perennially stylish, but each year different colors and versions come out and I think other years have and will have better offerings.
This is not a be-all-end-all list. These are just well-known brands of sneakers that have been popular for more than one season and continue to be stylish and popular among fashion insiders and celebrities while also being comfortable, reasonably priced, and available at various retailers.
How To Choose Stylish Sneakers as a Grown Woman
Rule number one: wear what you like. If you don't like my advice, my advice isn't for you. Rock what you think looks good, makes you feel good, works with your lifestyle and unique needs. However, if you're unsure where to start in searching for trendy street sneakers, read on.
Color
When looking for street sneakers to wear with everyday clothing (denim, shorts, casual dresses, etc.) a low-contrast color may get you the most mileage. Especially if you're not confident embracing the trendy sneaker trend, choosing a shoe that isn't high contrast with your skin or your standard wardrobe is a good bet.
If you plan on wearing these shoes with a lot of jeans and dark pants, consider a pair in black, gray, or a deeper color. If you think you'll be wearing them more with shorts, dresses, and pants that expose your ankle you may want to choose a color closer to your skintone or less of a contrast (tan, camel, pink, ivory, brown, pale pink, gray, etc.).
However, in 2025, color is popular. Don't be afraid to add a pop of pink or red, choose brown or silver as your neutral, or even a print, not matching anything else in your look but somehow making the whole ensemble cohesive. Sneakers are fashion as well as function; let them steal the spotlight and show you're comfortable and chic.
Profile
In previous years, it was all about the chunky shoe, then all about the really sleek, low-profile shoe. Anyone who was anyone was wearing high-tops, and then only low-tops were considered fashionable. In 2025? The rules have been broken and you can pretty much wear whatever makes you happy.
I encourage you to try a profile you haven't worn in a long while (or ever). Often, we grown-ass women have ideas in our heads of what silhouettes are the most flattering to our bodies. We feel we have this down pat, considering we've been dressing ourselves for several decades. But the last few years have been transformative for the world and ourselves. Good or bad, this transformation has affected not just fashion trends but the way we may look at them on our bodies.
For example, as someone with short, solid legs and strong ankles, I always chose low-top, low-profile sneakers. I believed a less bulky sneaker that showed my ankle bones would better balance my body. Even if the sneakers were trim, I would only wear them with certain hem lengths and apparel silhouettes. Then I saw a pair of chunky cream sneakers at the mall.
I tried them and was surprised by how much I liked them—and how they were so big they actually made my solid legs look small! The puffy collar of the sneakers hid my ankle bones, but I didn't care. I still felt they looked right with certain hemlines and clothing silhouettes, but trying something new gave my body a new outlook. You may not have the same experience, but there's no harm in trying a new profile the next time you go shoe shopping.
Try Before You Buy
If you can, I recommend you return to PrePan habits and go shoe shopping in person. Even if the store you visit doesn't have the style or brand you want, get a feel for the 2025 sneaker fit, comfort, and technology. You may find your old favorite doesn't fit the same, and a new-to-you brand, style, or silhouette may be just what your feet and your wardrobe have been looking for.
Be Wary of OTT
OTT stands for over the top and a lot of trendy sneakers right now are going that route. A retro sneaker but with chiffon ribbons as laces. A cool sneaker… with velcro closures and platform soles. Sequins, mixed patterns, holographic fabric, studs, lights, bows, ruffles, wedge heels stacked soles… An OTT shoe is more likely to look dated by the end of the season. Also, an OTT shoe not styled by an OTT person with an OTT wardrobe can look cheap and clueless far quicker than a more subdued shoe.
Don't Buy Dupes
High fashion brands like Gucci, Loewe, and Balenciaga have gotten on the trendy sneaker train and carry stylish sneakers for sky-high prices. As with all designer accessories, lower-end brands and Made in China fast fashion companies come on the scene offering “dupes” of these designer pieces for a much cheaper price.
I also recommend becoming familiar with designer styles by perusing them on the website of a department store like Bergdorf Goodman so you get a feel for the trends and the specific designers' trademark styles. Whether they are truly counterfeit and pretend to be designer sneakers or a department store brand makes them with so many of the designer elements you can't tell they're not the real deal until you're up close, it's not stylish to wear such a shoe.

This is a great post! It reminded me of the sneakers I wore eeeeeverywhere in college, back in the early aughts – an olive green suede slim and sleek pair. Whew, the nostalgia is hitting hard…
Ok Alison, I’m a broken record….I can’t wear any of the quirky, edgy, chic, stylin’ sneakers in this post. NB 990’s are all I’ve got. What are your suggestions for a 4E foot? Might come down to how to style a ‘less than perfect’ shoe. I relate to the idea of a shoe appearing as if it doesn’t makes sense, or it is an afterthought. Please give your thoughts!
I’ll share some options soon, but honestly, New Balance is a good option if you want a trendy athletic brand. Otherwise, I say go with what fits and has the least amount of embellishment/details. As simple as possible in white, tan, cream, or gray.
I wasn’t really ever a sneaker girl, because I have a super-wide foot. But I’m enjoying my black slip-on Skechers. They are so comfy and I feel like I’m walking on air. I also like my classic white Keds in the summer months. Thank you for presenting all of these great choices — I’ve got my eye on the animal print styles. If I can find them in double-wide I will be a happy woman!
Do tell, what brands of shoes fit you?? I have a 4E foot-I can wear Propet boots, which are clunky but comfortable. New Balance 990’s are the only sneakers I can find. God I love all the sneakers in this post, I wish I could fit into them!!
Have you tried Easy Spirit? I’m a D/E width and the WW styles are a bit too big for me. I usually get the sneaker mules.
I’ve been wearing Birk Bends because they are so comfortable and have a wider toe box. Of the various 2025 sneakers you suggested, do any of them have a wider toe box as well, with a fit more like Birk Bends? Thanks!
Great article!!! I learned so much!!! Just ordered a couple of pair of Adidas Handball sneaks – one red/pink and one green/green. Sizing will determine which pair I keep. I’m thinking these fun colors will add some flair to my jean outfits!
Hey! In the spirit of the blog reno, is this post supposed to have pictures of the sneakers and styling options you have written about? I only see the cover (yellow sneakers) and the screenshot from Crazy Stupid Love. Just flagging in case it’s supposed to have more pics.
Thank you for this! I deleted them because they were no longer available but the new ones didn’t get uploaded. Off to remedy!
I still can’t see pictures of the shoes, fwiw.
I had a serious tech issue with this post but I believe it is now remedied with the pictures!
I have the Ecco Soft 7 and they are fabulous. Extremely comfortable (the heel inside is raised?) and very good quality. I wore them non-stop on a three-week vacation when we walked miles every day. They are great with jeans/pants but work very well with long/mid skirts as well.
Great primer post!
Not a sneakerhead here (not enough space or $$$), but diehard classic / retro – (1970s/80s preferred) – sneaker fan (Gola, Puma, Asics / Onitsuka Tigers, New Balance). Love old Nikes but horrible quality. Keep dancing around Vejas, but a tad too pricey. Lucky enough that I work in business casual Silicon Valley and been wearing trainers with everything from flared jeans through the iconic Editor pant through skinny or boyfriend jeans and back to flares now. I weathered the horrific bloated Dad sneaker craze and kept true to my minimal classics. Always cool, never out of style. Wear hiking shoes/boots (remember that trend 1-2 years ago?) when hiking and they stay out of the office and date nights otherwise.
As someone with a wide foot who now needs arch support, I am a huge fan of the Reebok classic. I am on my third pair. They are very comfortable – I walk all over NYC in them. I do find they run small, though, and have to size up.
I love the white Nikes you featured at the top of this article. Do you know the style name?
It’s a stock photo but they look to be an older version of the Nike Air Max https://amzn.to/4662EKW
There’s a picture of a grey sneaker with looks like white stripes. I don’t see any info on them. Would you please tell me about them and where I can purchase them.
I think they are the Courtset style from adidas. I am positive they are adidas but not as positive about the style but these look very similar. They seem to be discontinued so there are limited sizes at different retailers: https://bit.ly/3ecF3MD and https://bit.ly/2ZoF8sE they may also be the adidas Gazelle, which I can’t find right now in grey but found in a soft greyish mauve color: https://bit.ly/2Tp54Aw
I was looking and looking and looking at the Tretons that you posted, trying to figure why I was experiencing a weird dejavu when I looked at them. And then I remembered that I wore Tretons for my cheerleading uniform back in the mid-90s when I was in middle school!! I absolutely hated them (because I had size 11s at the age of 11 and everything made my feet look huge and terrible in my eyes) but now I look at them and maybe they’re not so bad!? Thanks for the trip down memory lane!
I have been kind of meh on Tretons when I’ve seen them online, but I tried a pair on at DSW recently and thought they made my size 10.5/11 feet look slimmer and less bulky than other sneakers I’ve tried recently. It might be worth trying some on to see if you have the same experience.
This post is gold. You’ve inspired me—and I maaayyy have bought a pair of bright red sneakers. (I totally did. Am so ready for spring.)
I’ve had problem feet all my life. In fact, my mother used to say that as a child I detested walking barefoot and can be seen in photos tip toeing on the sidewalk. I’ve had over eight surgeries on both feet and still suffer with periodic aches and pain even now. So, wearing sneakers is my best option. I used to wear only them when commuting after switching from my dress shows, and then full-time on the weekends. Now, I wear them every day. I am a huge Nike fan, so 99.9% of my sneakers are Nike branded. I have every color and style, but, if need be, wear all black sneakers with my suits and dress clothing. I always wear sneaker no show socks and, usually use my orthotics. My feet feel better and I’m comfortable most days. I used to feel self-conscious of the look, but now, a lot of women is sporting this look as well. Thanks, Allie, for making this a talking point.
I am chuckling right now as I look at the brand new Vans that arrived this week on my doorstep. Good to know that I have good taste! Ha.
I absolutely love sneakers. They’re all I’ve been wearing for the past couple of years and my feet have never felt better, though I have to say most of my sneakers are slip-ons. Are those in the sneaker category or called something else?? Hmmmm. Anyhow, just wanted to say that getting some cheap, colorful laces through Amazon can bring new life to sneakers. I’ve got a pair of black and white Supergas that I purchased hot pink laces and gold laces for and I feel like I’ve got a new pair of sneakers when I change out those laces for the black ones the pair came with. It doesn’t take much to get me excited, lol.
I went all in for Bombas because of their business model, and the style of the sock. Donating to people in need? Heck yes! But I’ve not had very good luck with them. Several pairs have gotten holes in different spots. :-/ Really bummed because I was hoping to replace all my socks with them. Has anyone else experienced this?
Bombas – love the concept but if I wear any style beyond no-shows they are so tight I can’t stand to wear them all day!
Darn Tough are just that; I have pairs that are 10 years old and look great.
Alison, I love your posts and this one was just the right timing for me. Only in the past few years have I embraced being a sneaker girl – and this is coming from a 52 year old executive with big (size 10 or 11) feet. For years I thought looking professional meant uncomfortable shoes and boy am I happy to be wrong. My career continues to flourish even though I am comfortable:) I just ordered black joggers similar to the ones you shared, and the same t-shirt because I have the black jacket and shoes already – time for me to put it all together into a new look. Keep up the great work on all your posts including those awesome weekend reads. You rock:)
Sometimes I feel flummoxed for not buying into the white sneaker thing. I love the look, and I feel like the trend is here to stay, but all I can think about is how they’re going to look dingy almost immediately. Perhaps it’s because I’m a mom of 2 and am often walking through wood chips, etc at the park. I’m always looking for sneakers that don’t have the stark white on the outer sole and leather uppers, but they’re hard to find unless you’re doing all black in something that looks like an orthotic shoe. I got a pair of Columbia Bridgeport Slip shoes a couple years back, but I wish there were more options like that out there. Maybe I just need to get into the habit of cleaning my shoes more often, but I am cleaning everything else enough!
The solution to this is easy, though not minimalist. You buy two pairs: one pair for kicking around, and another pair to keep “nice”.
Alyssa, I can’t do white leather shoes do for this reason. I have a pair of white Converse Shoreline that I’ve had success throwing in the washing machine. I wear them to the dog park, my kids’ soccer games, etc., and have always been impressed at how they come clean.
Such a great post – Thank You! I just got a pair of sneakers last week. However, they’re for extremely high volume feet, with room for orthotics, and some kind of posture-improving technology in the sole. That means they look more like a high profile trendy sneaker, but in cream and grey, so neutral colours. Although they’re very comfortable they are a bit of a puzzle to style! Should anyone be interested, the brand is Danish and called Wallin (wallin-shoes.dk)
This, and the other post you linked to, had so much great information — but I think I’ve (maybe) come to terms with not being a sneaker girl. I felt sad after reading your post and trying (again) to imagine myself in sneakers — in fact, I daydreamed back to elementary school when I so wanted a pair of Tretorns, saved my allowance, bought a pair, and never, ever wore them b/c I just looked so ridiculous in them.
I do appreciate your recommendation to lower the contrast between skin and shoe color — that’s a great tip.
(PS. The elementary school kid in me loves the plaid Tretorns I just saw at the Nordstrom site, LOL!)
I have difficulty finding shoes to work with girlfriend jeans. Are sneakers like these the go-to? How snug should the pant opening be? Would love to see a post on how to style these pants and shoes since I have to wear shoes with forefoot padding and support, and have unattractive (arthritis) ankles! Thank you for you blog!
I’ve had knees replaced and multiple leg surgeries. Have to avoid trendy and go with support (thank you Brooks Glycerine!) But I’ve found All-Birds to be comfortable and they’re all-wool for those of us who never wear leather.
Yes, I’d also like to plug All Birds! Wearing them to the office right now for casual Friday with jeans and a striped top. 🙂 I think they are easier to style than many sporty brands.
I wore Allbirds on a recent trip to London, walking all day, every day, and my feet never hurt. I’ve never had that happen.
In my experience we all look younger/thinner/smarter/richer/more attractive when our feet feel good and we can easily take a purposeful stride. For me that means I’m in a shoe that stays on my foot when I move and doesn’t involve thinking abut the take off and land of every single step.
My take away here is that a white low profile sneaker should be in my Summer wardrobe.
OMG, I think “disheveled poli sci professor” actually IS my look, with a little bit of “disheveled English-lit professor” thrown in when I wear a dress, and I am going to embrace it for all it’s worth!
Yes! Nothing wrong with it if you own it and rock it!
I am 32 and love wearing sneakers, I am so so sick of ballet flats, and booties and sneakers feel fresh.
I have black slip on eccos, black adidas sambas, red shoreline converse, gray toms, hightop vans, slip on leopard hightops from target, millenial pink, black perforated, and gray glitter slip on sneakers, hightop navy sneaker-booties. Its an addiction.
I have a casual job and sneakers really fit my needs. I wear jeans, striped tee/solid longsleeve tee add an accessory/scarf or lipstick and big earrings and add a sneaker and it works
Sounds as though you have a fantastic collection!
Great ideas – I just bought a pair of Saucony Jazz sneakers, my go-to for fashion sneakers. I can’t wait to rock them this spring and summer. I’d love to start now, but have to wear regular crew socks due to a leg injury, that requires me to wear a full-leg brace.
Wishing you a speedy recovery!
My 44-year-old daughter wears her wardrobe of sneakers effortlessly and always looks chic. Your post is SO helpful as at 68, I had no idea how to go about adding sneakers to my wardrobe. I’ve never been a sneakers person, but always have loved trendy shoes. Now you’ve given me some ideas to try out, I’m going to check out your links.
Oh I’m so glad! I think I’ll need to revisit this topic again and go more in depth!
An “Over 40” blogger (she’s 46 I think) did a big sneaker try on. It is actually very good and informative, and then she did a post where she put together like 9 outfits with the sneakers and stuff she already had in her closet. I’d highly recommend both posts for anyone looking into jumping on the fashion sneaker trend. It really helps to see the sneakers on a person and from different angles and she gives really detailed pros and cons (including weight of the shoe) for each sneaker. And of course seeing the sneakers styled with different outfits (not just a flat lay) really gives a better picture of the proportions. I’m not sure if I am allowed to say who the blogger is (is it rude mention another blogger? There is not an entry on this topic in Emily Post), but if you google 2019 fashion sneaker review you should find it.
Oh sure, I adore Jo-Lynne and she has a great site. And this post is a fantastic resource! https://jolynneshane.com/fashion-sneaker-review-comparison.html
I saw this post pop up in my stat counter and popped over to read. Thanks for the shout-out! 🙂
I love all of your tips and you make some great points about how to style them and how to choose the right pair. A lot of people told me I should have kept the Golden Goose, but I felt like they were OTT (love that acronym!) for me personally. Very happy with the Veja I ended up with. Classic but fashion forward – and they have that low profile you mention, which is what I really liked about them.
This post is a great resource! Off to share on my FB page…
Aww thanks so much! <3
Thank you for this!!! Feeling “old” at almost-52 these days.
Woman, you are NOT old! It’s just there’s only so many things one can fit in their brain, and keeping tabs on trendy sneakers isn’t high on your priority list. But that’s the benefit of reading blogs, we do research on your behalf!
Thank you!! I actually do own a pair of tan leather ECCO sneakers and I love wearing them. Kind of look like Keds. They are fun — but I’m always wanting to wear my wonderful grey and pink Nike trainers but don’t know exactly HOW to style them. This article is a great help:) I enjoy your photo outfit collages. And…You are adorable:)
Aww, thank you!
Another brand, though super pricey, that I love for cool sneakers is Paul Green. But I try to find them on eBay!
Love all your styling ideas. Eyeing that plaid blazer…
I love eBay for things like that! And a plaid blazer is a hot thing for wardrobes now and through the rest of the year!
Just bought a pair of Supergas and I’m hoping to incorporate them into lots of outfits. These, in sage grey: http://bit.ly/2EkfV6l
Oh I like!
Reporting back – they are awesome. Comfy, small profile, look cute with jeans and leggings (and probably shorts when the weather is warmer). So happy to have found these!
I do wear sneakers to walk the mile from parking to office so I do worry that is what any sneakers will look like, this gives me hope.
I’m glad you found it helpful!
i’ve been big into this…I”m never wearing heels again (maybe) I wear my sneakers with dresses, pants, whatever…I’m comfy, I feel cute, and my back and feet don’t hurt.
YESSS!
Thank you, Ali! I went ahead & bought those New Balance Shoes after I’d emailed you. Your ideas are great! So far, I’ve only worn my shoes with skinny jeans but I got SO many compliments on them (I love shoes, & these are adorable, imo). Thanks to this post, I’ve got several more ideas on what to wear them with as the weather warms up. I also own a pair of Tretorns that all white, so I think those will give me more casual options as well. It’s pretty crazy that these retro-shoes are back in style, but it’s also nice to be comfortable. Thanks again for this post!
My pleasure, a great question that I knew would help others so I had to turn it into a post! Enjoy your cute shoes!
