Strappy sandals are smashing and platform wedges may be positively wonderful, but no matter how much you adore a sky-high shoe, a woman cannot live in heels alone! After all, sometimes a casually cool outfit simply calls for a shoe with the same unfussy, fashion-forward attitude. If you've ever pined for a smart pair of sneakers that share your street-chic sensibilities, consider your wish granted, courtesy of the New Balance for Nine West collection. The new collaboration boasts a range of low-fuss, high-style sneakers that are terrifically on-trend and perfectly priced-just what your wardrobe always wanted!

Emilian Sneaker ($89)
The Emilian sneaker offers a subtly stylish alternative to the basic white sneaker. The shoe's simple body gets a fresh update via decorative lavender, sky-blue, and hot pink transparent straps crisscrossing over the toe. We'd wear them with a tiny pair of ankle socks and some thoroughly worn-in denim cutoffs for the ideal lazy Sunday summer outfit.

Chipper Sneaker ($89)
It's hard to decide what aspect of the Chipper sneaker we love best. One moment, we're sure it's the adorable retro lines, seconds later we're convinced it's the understated mint-green stripes and matching laces. Whether you love the style or the subtle pastel shades, this shoe will definitely add a dash of spring spirit to the rest of your outfit.

Dedra Sneaker ($89)
The Dedra sneaker simply screams "futuristic chic," thanks to a simple palette of black and silver, punctuated with chartreuse accents. The absence of laces adds to the shoe's aerodynamic and sleek look, plus it's a convenient design-feature for those of us who perhaps never fully mastered our loop-swoop-and-pull skills.

Classy Sneaker ($89)
The Classy sneaker takes a classic shape from New Balance and gives it a pop of Nine West panache through its vibrant color-blocked design. Choose between an all-black style with bright teal laces or the hot pink, electric yellow, and bright blue combination, both shown above. Either way, your feet will look on-trend (bold eighties style is huge for spring) and super fresh all season long.
