If there’s one item I fully embraced in 2020, it’s white sneakers! Being at home more meant I swapped out heels and wedges for sandals and now white sneakers for fall and winter. As long as it’s not raining cats and dogs (which is has been), I wear them weekly! The best part is that they pair easy with dresses, skirts and jeans and can even make a dressier outfit more casual! I am alllll about casual these days, especially working from home.
Sunny Outfit Details
Leopard Print Dress / J.Crew Factory White Sneakers / Sunshine Style Co. Scrunchie
This dress is fun because it’s actually more *dressy* than casual. When I paired it with my favorite J.Crew Factory white sneakers (under $35), I realized the dress instantly turns casual! I would honestly wear this dress with heels to a wedding because it gives those vibes and I have worn it with sneakers working from home!
I searched a bit and found this dress in a similar style with the back cut out and on sale for under $35! The dress also comes in a wrap dress with a v-cut!
My 3 Favorite Pairs of White Sneakers
I’m not sure why it took so long for me to embrace the white sneaker trend. Maybe it had to do with the Florida heat! Now that I have not one but two pairs, I love them so so much! Tretorns have really amazing reviews and if you read any blogs, you are probably aware their super popular with bloggers. The $75 price tag though was not my favorite.
When I found these J.Crew Factory sneakers for half the price, I jumped on it. They took about a week to break in and once they did, their super comfy and at a great price point to! The canvas does seem to pick up dirt and smudge marks faster but the good part is that you can throw canvas sneakers into the wash and they come out looking brand new!
I recently had a sponsored post with Bealls Florida and I was able to buy these white leather sneakers as part of the campaign! As much as I love the budget friendly canvas J.Crew Factory sneakers, I love the leather Keds for easy clean up. You can get them dirty and wet and wash them off with a damp wash cloth or paper towel!
Keep in mind the price point you want to spend when buying sneakers. My J.Crew sneakers look just as cute as the Keds or Tretorn pair, it’s just a pricing difference and of course when you buy a more expensive item, the quality is higher (most of the time).
J.Crew Factory Canvas Sneakers, $34.50
Keds Leather Sneakers, $60.00
Tretorn Canvas Sneakers, $75.00
How to Style White Sneakers
There are soooo many ways to wear white sneakers! I love styling mine with dresses the most! Both mini and midi! Maxi dresses can be styled with sneakers for comfort you just can’t see them. You can also wear them with shorts, skinny jeans, mom jeans, overalls and skirts.
White sneakers instantly make any outfit super casual. The dress I have on is polyester, so the material is more silky. You can experiment a bit and style them with pieces that are cotton, polyester, silk, flannel or a rayon/spandex mix. The ski is the limit!
Shop the Velvet Scrunchies Here!
Super excited to release these velvet bow scrunchies just in time for the holidays and Christmas! They come in pink, burnt orange and mustard yellow and are $15 each! The scrunchies are so soft, cute for wearing as an accessory during the holidays and also make such cute gifts!
I will be selling them at a local craft show in Downtown Melbourne on December 5th! When it gets closer, I will give the details and times! I’ve been working hard behind the scenes making sure I have plenty to sell in different prints and colors! This is something I have been so excited for because it makes the business feel so “real”.
