Lucy Hale Wore the Only Sneakers I'd Consider Buying Right Now

Practicality is the name of the game right now. More than ever, I find myself shoving anything fussy or high-maintenance to the back of my closet. When it comes to shoes, I'm pretty much only wearing one style when I leave the house to walk the dog or get groceries: slip-on sneakers. I've always been a germaphobe, but now I'm extra conscious of minimizing the number of things I have to touch. Hence, being able to slide my sneakers on and off without having to touch my dirty shoes is so helpful.
That said, slip-on sneakers certainly don't have to be boring, as Lucy Hale just demonstrated. Photographed at the grocery store, Hale wore a super-casual outfit including a baseball cap, crew-neck sweater, and leggings. Of course, I'm especially drawn to her cute Vans Slip-On Sneakers ($50) because the red-and-white colorway is a fun update to the traditional black-and-white checkerboard. Scroll down to shop Lucy Hale's Vans slip-on sneakers.

Next, Nina Dobrev's tie-dye matching set is absolutely my next purchase.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern in 2011—back when the site only published a single story per day. (We have since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC and lives in Los Angeles. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2015, where she is now the Associate Director of Fashion News. From the Oscars to the Met Gala, she leads the site's entire red carpet coverage strategy. She specializes in celebrity and fashion news but also enjoys writing travel features and runway reports. She frequently contributes to WWW's social accounts and has a sizable following on her personal TikTok.
