STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Sneaker Fever

Sneaker fever has persisted among many and all of us season after season, and I must admit, I’m still a major fan of them! You can wear them with almost anything and besides being adorable, sneakers are way more practical for the tasks of everyday life.

I spotted this Fashionista, an exchange student at Occidental College from The Chinese University of Hong Kong in Hong Kong, donning a pair of solid yellow sneakers with a pinstriped shirt dress. I love her casual day look for running around campus and going to classes. Her outfit got me thinking that it might be time to update the sneaker trend and ditch your all white sneakers for another color. Crisp white sneakers are classic, but you are sure to stand out from the crowd with a pair or colored ones. Sticking with a muted color lets you treat the shoes like a neutral color when pairing them with an outfit. Next time you’re looking for the perfect shoe to wear, try a pair of yellow sneakers like her or rock these pink ones that are sure to sell out fast.

This Fashionista tones down the business-y vibes of her shirt dress by rolling up the sleeves and wearing her sneakers. Pairing sneakers with a dress is an easy way to add a casual or sporty component to your outfit. Don’t be afraid to wear them on a night out either. You can dress up your sneakers with a pair of tulle socks like these ones and dance all night blister free!

Long live the (colored) sneaker!
