Pulling Off Sneakers: a 101 for Beginners
Trainers never really go redundant, existing as youth culture landmarks as well as extremely versatile items, and they keep ruling the shoe industry, unrivalled.
But, is there a discipline to wearing them?
Pairing them with a tracksuit or sports bra plus leggings seems quite obvious, but for an authentic and unusual outfit, it demands a more imaginative eye.
Hereβs some hacks to stay comfy whilst pulling off the best fit:
β’ Surprise the passers-by: Be bold in picking colours and βloudβ variants. They highlight the most monochrome of outfits by standing out.
β’ Avoid the mainstream: Of course, black Vans are comfortable but everyone is wearing them, so avoid hopping on the best-seller bandwagon. Be explorative, there are tons of different designers, models and indie brands worth checking out!
β’ Pair it and wear it! Try not to focus only on the trainers themselves, but think about the overall outfit. If you use some plain white shoes with a stunning pair of skinny jeans and a garish shirt, theyβll make complete sense. A walking Mona Lisa, if we may.
β’ Versatility: the main keyword: A jumpsuit, workout clothes or even a flowery dress with an elegant jacket can have the same great outcome with a nice pair of trainers.
β’ Get funky with the laces: Getting groovy with shoe accessories always brightens up sneakers and keeps you from getting bored yourself. It gives a completely perspective to your old outfits, although it requires a little bit of effort!
