I Wear This Summer Sneaker Outfit at Least Once a Week
Sneakers are constantly on rotation in my wardrobe. Whether I'm switching between a chunky-soled throwback pair or my trusted high-top Converse, there's never really a time of year where I'm not sliding my feet into a pair of good old sneakers. Lately, I've been feeling extra-inspired to style them by these eight ladies whose sneaker games are next-level. But you don't have to take a deep dive into the world of athleisure (or even the biggest sneaker fan) to appreciate the following simple sneaker outfits—well, one outfit in particular.
A dress with sneakers is the simplest outfit combination in my mind. It's one I reach for every time I want to wear something cute yet super easy-going. This summer, the exact outfit I'm wearing on repeat involves a breezy cotton or linen dress, preferably a colorful one, along with a pair of white or off-white sneakers. I'm always thinking of balance in my outfits, so the frillier the dress, the chunkier the sneakers I'd pair with it. Sure, there are a zillion combinations you could put together involving the two pieces, but this is the one you'll find me wearing nonstop right now because it's beyond easy to put together. Below I'm sharing my favorite iterations of this sneaker uniform, along with the best dresses and sneakers to shop now.
