Fun inspiration, dresses and sneakers

Honestly, I like them all.
But especially the black oversized midi, which is similar to one I just got at H&M. I don’t have any Converse, but I have other sneakers.
Also like the boho midi-maxi skirt look.
The slip dress look with the awesome pattern and color clash, and bonus purple lipstick. Unfortunately I have nothing like that outfit, except for leopard socks

The third one down right? That's my favorite too.

I know it's the plainest, but I really like the first one. It seems timeless and comfortable. I think I know the H&M dress you mean. It's pretty great.

These are all great. Maybe my next pair of sneaks should be clunky! Or neon!

Immediately thought of Kelly; she is right on point with this trend!

I love the first one and have the pieces in my closet, but haven't figured out the right weather and occasion combo to wear it ... Perhaps early spring will give me an opportunity ...

I can totally see you in that outfit! And the fun colors in the slip dress outfit.

I’ll have to try a more toned-down version of this combination when the weather warms up a little.

Great inspiration! I may wear sneakers with a dress to work today.

Thanks for the inspiration - this really makes me want to buy a pair of fashion trainers/ sneakers! White seems to be the most versatile, but I don't wear such a crisp shade. Could cream or ecru sneakers work instead with such looks, do you think?

Zaeobi, I could totally see cream or ecru sneakers, especially with lots of brown and tan tones trending. My stupid expensive Gucci sneakers aren’t a stark color, they’re kinda a tannish/ light brown snakeskin

ETA look at #4, though I’m not a fan of the white socks, I’d like a different color

I love all these looks. Thank you for sharing.

Ooh, I like all of those, but I especially #1 and #2. Diehard minimalist, I guess... And her bob in #1 is perfection. Makes me want to grow my bangs out. I don't think I've ever made a center part look that good though.

It amazes me how chic sneaks can look with a dress or skirt! Fabulous!

I just loved how they have carried the look so perfectly with these shoes

I love the 1st 3. I could see you wearing them all. I could and will take inspiration from this already building my gym shoe wardrobe

@annagybe Yes, I agree about the socks - juxtaposing athleisure items with a normal outfit might be trendy these days, but wearing white ribbed tube socks AND trainers feels a little too on the nose for me. Needs more sartorial nuance!

Thanks, Anna - I would wear most of these in a heartbeat. And I love how that leather fannypack acts as a belt/corset over the shirtdress.

More love for the slip dress!

You can do this! I’m totally on board. I wore my dresses and skirt with sneakers last summer and will continue to do so this year.
