The Pretty Sneaker Outfits I'm Secretly Copying

last updated 14 August 2019

As someone who tends to frequently be in a sneaker-outfit rut (hi, T-shirt and jeans), I'm in constant search of fresh outfit inspiration wherever I can get it. These days, that's quite often on Instagram (shocking, right?). I recently went down a sneaker-outfit rabbit hole (it's a thing) on Instagram and quickly realized that all the looks I was saving to my collections happened to be "pretty". (The soft colors, the floral-print dresses, and the romantic blouses were plentiful.)

I've never really gotten into the streetwear trend that's so prevalent these days, so wearing sneakers with pretty things is the balance that I clearly seek. And thanks to the long string of (very) warm days that we're currently in the middle of, there are plenty of opportunities for me to secretly copy the sneaker outfits that are filling my feed.

Read on for the looks and to shop sneakers to build them around.
