style: kickin’ it.
Unless you’ve been living under a (Pinterest-less) rock, you’ve probably noticed that sneakers have made quite the comeback recently. For a while it seemed sneakers (or tennis shoes, depending on where you live) were reserved only for athletic wear, but lately they’ve pushed boots and flats out of the way as a go-to for a casual-chic daytime look.
I recently saw a fashion blogger rocking some old school Adidas and loved the look, so I set out to find a pair of my own. I tried about three different stores only to find the newer designs. I headed directly to the actual Adidas store in Soho convinced they’d have what I was looking for, and even THEY didn’t have the classic design in women’s!
BUT – they did have what I was looking for…in the kid’s section.
That’s right – these Adidas Classic Samba shoes are a boy’s size 6 (I’m a women’s 8).
I couldn’t believe how great they fit, AND they were about 1/2 the cost of the women’s shoes. That’s a #TrendyNotSpendy win, right there.
The whole look:
jacket – Sparkle and Fade (Urban Outfitters)
shirt – All Saints
jeans – J Brand (TJ Maxx)
shoes – Adidas
bag – Dolce Vita Handbags Charlotte Crossbody
watch – Swiss Legend
necklace – Speakable
