I used to be that girl that owned only stilettos, strappy sandals, and one, maybe two, pairs of sneakers. To be honest I just never knew how to incorporate them into my ultra-girly wardrobe. It wasn’t until a few years backĀ when I browsing one of my favorite blogs and I came across a post that showed how to pair Nike Retros with a trendy, dressier looking outfit. My wheels started to turnĀ as I beganĀ to put together outfits in my headĀ from pieces of myĀ ownĀ wardrobe. I thought to myself, “I can definitely pull this off!”. From that point on I was no longer shopping for the latest styles in heels and sandals, my love for sneakers of the retro variety hadĀ become an interest of mine. Fast forward to the present day, I own at least five pairs of sneakers (not the gym shoe kind) and I love finding new ways to incorporate them into my outfits. These ConversesĀ are my newest shoe purchase and I have alreadyĀ worn them multiple times with different outfit combinations. I love how the white is so fresh and they add a sporty touch to just about anything that I wear with them. When it comes to this trend there really aren’t any rules. It is best to put very little thought into it and just have fun. Take it from me, this is a fun trend worth trying out, especially for the stiletto fans out there who dare to deviate from their precious heels!
