We love fall boots. Like, really really love them. But some days we’re simply not in the mood to strut down the street. We need something laid back for Casual Friday. However, we refuse to compromise style points for it. Fortunately, we’re learning from our Parisian counterparts that sneakers are perfectly acceptable with trendy dresses and the like.
Dresses, especially those cozy ribbed ones now that’s it’s fall, come with a styling plot twist when paired with sneakers. Surprisingly, the contrast from girly to sporty totally works.
Come clean white sneakers can be worn even with skirts and tights. It says “Yeah, I’m kind of a big deal in the fashion world, but I have people to meet and places to go. I can’t be bothered to have heels slow me down.”
Other mildly masculine articles, like a trench or blazer, add to the on-the-go feel of wearing sneakers.
To really kill the contrast adding sporty to your #ootd, layer delicate necklaces, like the ones from Sunday Girl. So give the heeled boots a break. Your ankles will thank you 30 years from now.
