Sneakers: Fashion and Function
So you’re finally venturing outside of your home and you need to switch out your soft cashmere slippers with real shoes? Well, I suggest we transition gradually to the structure and form of real shoes so we don’t completely shock our system. Luckily, sneakers have made a real comeback into our wardrobes. And they are not just for when we are doing something athletic, but rather, are now worn with every type of outfit and in most occasions (I think it was David Beckham who wore Dior sneakers with a formal suit to a recent Runway show? And the list of celebrities that have worn sneakers on red carpets is endless…Emily Ratatowski, Milly Bobby Brown, Timothy Chalamet…). Sure they are celebrities and they have the clout (and professional Stylists) that can help them pull the look off, but I assure you, there are great options out there for us regular folks.
Here are 5 sneaker options, that are chic and comfortable to wear, whether you are wearing them to the office, to run errands, or simply to walk around your neighborhood. This one’s for you, Esha Gupta!
