When all else fails, these sneakers won’t.
by: Julia Benito
There’s always that one pair of white sneakers we gravitate towards when we couldn’t be bothered to reach for anything else — with good reason. Easy to pair, easy to wear, and easy on the eyes, there’s simply no excuse not to have a pair of white sneakers in your arsenal of on-repeat footwear.
Here, we put together the crème de la crème of our footwear recommendations for shoes that we know will look good with virtually anything.
Everyday Chic
Whether you’re pairing it with your favorite — albeit overused — pair of jeans, a playful skirt, or a dress for the ladies, joggers, or trousers, white sneakers do a great job of adding the perfect accent to your look. Pairing great with monochromatic white ensembles, neutral earthy tones, and darker contrasting pieces, these shoes make everyday styling quick and easy. Just throw on a tank top or a tee with some denim jeans or chinos and you’re golden.
Work It Out
It’s 2022. Sneakers in the workplace, while not exactly universally acceptable in all offices, have become less and less frowned upon — of course, given that the outfit it pairs with is appropriate. However, pairing up sneakers with something a little dressier and office-ready doesn’t take a master’s degree to achieve. Again, being a versatile shoe, white sneakers pair well with slacks, trousers, maxi skirts, and even blazers just as easily as they would a pair of jeans. You can even try it with a well-tailored power suit for a classy look that knows how to have fun.
Sporting Spice
Whether you’ve just come from the gym or are simply looking to wear some comfortable athleisure wear out in the city, it’s practically a given that white sneakers will be your best bet. Matching perfectly with yoga pants, tracksuits, joggers, and oversized hoodies, these shoes have you covered on all fronts for a well-balanced, coordinated sporty look.
Hello, Summer
While it’s easy to argue that summer is practically the same as everyday wear when you live in a steaming country like the Philippines, we still like to give this season a special mention. For days booked for a quick trip to the beach to unwind, we know having fresh, summery OOTDs will be part of your itinerary. When you’re not dipping into the ocean or the pool, you can always rely on white sneakers to be a great addition to your dressed-down ensembles. Flowing dresses, shorts, linen tees — there’s simply no going wrong here with white kicks.
Winter Wonderland
Layering up in fashionable coats and puffy jackets in the tropics isn’t exactly comfortable, but when you find yourselves on a plane to a country where it does get cold, you’ll be wanting outfits that suit your chilly needs. Luckily, white sneakers still fit the bill. Pair them with quintessential long coats, down jackets, hoodies, and all your layered goodies — they’ll still work. Plus, it helps lessen the load when it comes to baggage since it’s easy to slip on alongside your winter wear.
