Sneakers and dresses — a combo we’ll never quit. It’s easy, it’s comfortable, and it’s the kind of styling shortcut that makes getting dressed in the summer feel like a no-brainer. Sure, sandals and ballet flats have their moments, but on days when you’ll be on your feet for hours (or don’t feel like leaning too precious), sneakers are the move.
What keeps the pairing feeling fresh? Options — and this season has plenty. Silver sneakers add a little shine to denim dresses and bubble-hem minis. Retro running shoes balance out crisp shirt dresses and puffed sleeves. Hiking sneakers give fluid slip dresses some bite, while ballet sneakers — soft but sporty — take the sugar out of coquette-coded looks.
Ahead, the sneaker-and-dress combos we’ll be wearing on repeat all season long.
