Every girl was secretly elated when sneakers became the fashion trend with staying power. I know I was 100% elated when sneakers became accepted as a tasteful accent to even the most sophisticated of looks. I’ll never shy away from any opportunity that doesn’t require me to wear heels to make a statement. In fact, I went all in on this trend from the beginning. From understated urban basics to the fashion world’s hype over the “dad” shoe, ahead are the sneaker trends to shop and wear before spring arrives.…

Colorful
From multicolored designs to metallic accents, colorful sneakers are one of my favorite shoe trends this season. Even Balenciaga is on board and everyone seems willing to go broke for their Triple S sneakers. I am a fan of all the color ways they have come up with. Their new Track sneakers offer a sleeker design than the Triple S with a sporty layering of mesh, rubber, and leather. They are the best of hiking boots and performance athletic-wear.

Minimal
Clean sneakers will always be a classic and are probably the easiest to style with everyday looks. When it comes to minimal sneakers, the high-quality Original Achilles sneakers of Common Projects have gained cult status among many and for great reason. (Here’s an affordable option.) Distinguished by the signature metallic numbers just above the heel, they are the perfect basic shoe to look effortlessly polished. These go with literally any outfit, offering a suit the casual touch it needs to go from desk to drinks – or adding a cool-girl touch to dress down a flowy floral.
Another obsession in this category is Maison Margiela’s iconic Replica sneakers that come in a variety of materials. It’s got a signature Margiela deconstructed feel is an essential urban footwear.

Chunky
Last year, the dad sneakers reigned supreme and will continue to do so. One of my favorite styles so far has been Acne’s Manhattan sneaker. Inspired by the chunky dad kicks of the 90’s, it’s made from beautiful panels of leather, suede, and mesh. The white iteration has an astro-vibe I love. The chunky sneaker trend is one you’ll want to show off with cropped pants or a midi-skirt.

High Tops
I’m noticing a lot more high tops this season whether it’s one of those classic hipster styles – or an updated hiking-sneaker boot hybrid. The Dior Oblique high-top sneakers confirms it as the style with their signature logo print sold out in about a minute.

Sock
Performance athletic footwear’s gotten an update with a sock-like construction. Balenciaga continues to lead the pack in this department. I must confess that I love this concept as much as I love sock boots. It’s such a sleek look that pairs well with day dresses, skirts, denim – anything really. The stretchy and breathable fabric is so comfortable to wear while the snug fit makes them feel – well just like socks!
