HOW TO WEAR SNEAKERS WITH A DRESS

Looking to try something new (or get some more use out of that bridesmaid dress)? Time to repurpose your cocktail looks by pairing them with a summer sneaker. The styling trick is a fashion girl favorite and, more importantly, surprisingly easy to pull off. Simply pair a running shoe with a sheath dress or a midi frock with canvas kicks. The result is a devil-may-care approach to summer dressing. Master the casual trend with these suggestions.

Instantly dress down feminine dresses with flat sneakers. Finish with air-dried hair and a lip stain.
