As we near the end of autumn, it’s easy for us to focus on the boots of the season. We’ve given a lot of time to the function and ease of a great pair of boots, from ankle skimmers to thigh-high beauties. But our favourite celebrities keep reminding us just how relevant trainers remain to be even in these cooler months.
Right now, you’ve probably noticed a few trends in the sneaker world. Adidas is having a real moment with Sambas and Gazelles becoming increasingly hard to get your hands on. New Balance continues to be a fashion-follower favourite since those green-and-white 550s took the style scene by storm, and the occasional drops sell out in hours. Vejas remain a solid go-to for anyone who wants a pair of sneakers that will look good with everything and have remained trending for the past few years. The glory of trainers is truly in their versatility. They’re comfortable, easy to wear, and even easier to style. You can wear them all year round, from tracksuit days to summer holidays, with maxi dresses or miniskirts, but right now with the weather as it is, many style setters are opting for trousers to showcase their new kicks.
Jeans are an easy option when considering trousers to pair with your trainers, but there’s plenty more styles out there to choose from. Zoë Kravitz selected trending cargo pants to create a tonal head-to-toe look. Hailey Bieber’s leather trousers take on the trending oversized silhouette of 2022, and her all-black ensemble lets her green-and-white trainers take centre stage. For those looking for a smart-casual option, Jessica Alba paired a sweater with tailored trousers that work just as well for the airport as for the office.
