If you were to ask girls around the world what their favorite trend in the last couple of years has been, we are sure they would say combining more than one style into one. This is especially true for bringing some casual details into a formal business style and vice versa. With this, you get to be comfortable and look chic and trendy at the same time. This time, we are talking about one such trend and it is pairing sneakers with skirts and dresses.

A casual daytime look

Most of these looks will be fit for casual daytime activity, whether it is a cup of coffee with friends, a walk in the park, or an early movie. You can pair sneakers with a denim skirt and a basic white or black T-shirt, or, you can simply go with an A-line T-shirt dress and get another casual look. High waisted models are in right now, so try out those skirts. You can always complete the look with a nice shoulder purse, or a two-buckle belt and some earrings.

An elegant daytime look

If you want to wear something casual yet more fashionable, just change the type of skirt! For a more chic and unique look, you can wear a pencil skirt with a simple shirt again. In case you want to spice up that look a bit, opt for an animal print skirt or a t-shirt with an interesting quote.

An extra chic look

It may not sound like you can pair a more formal type of skirt with sneakers, but that is the beauty of this trend. You can try a high waisted black leather skirt with a slit, and pair it with a colorful turtleneck to make the look a bit more interesting. This is also the case with any statement skirt that has fun details like ruffles, an asymmetrical design, or a unique print because the sneakers will tone down the whole outfit.

A street-style dress outfit

The street style trend needs a bit more attention to detail and a bit more knowledge in combining pieces of clothing. This is why you can first check out Kicks Guru sneaker reviews and see what best fits your personal style. If you feel confident enough, pair your sneakers with a spaghetti strap maxi dress. You can add a basic tee underneath to dress it down a bit and make it more appropriate for sneakers.

A flirty summer look

Summer is all about dresses, and one of the most popular designs are floral print mini dresses with puffy sleeves or shoulder pads. They create a very trendy look; they are feminine and girly. Pairing them with sneakers will give you a classic street look while also remaining flirty and comfortable.

A classic dressy dress

Going even one step further, you can pair sneakers with a maxi polka dot dress with a side slit as well. Complete the look with cool sunglasses, a red lip, and light wavy hair, and you will have a perfect, stylish outfit. This is the perfect example of how you can combine a more formal piece of clothing with sneakers, which are a casual staple. In any of these looks, you can put on a sweatshirt if it gets a bit chilly. Pull the sleeves up, tuck it into a fun belt, and you will create a relaxed, yet eye-catching outfit.

An animal print dress

Animal print has been pretty popular in the last couple of years, and it easily finds its place during all of the seasons. This is something you should be careful with since you can easily go overboard. One cool suggestion is to pick a maxi leopard or zebra print dress and pair it with an oversized black blazer and colored sneakers.

A runway look with sneakers

Even some glamorous looks can be paired with sneakers, and you can make them look like you stepped off a runway. A rich, voluminous floral print maxi dress with soft, muted autumn colors will look amazing, for instance. If you want a bit more eccentricity, choose the ones with ruffles on their sleeves, or again, those with puffy sleeves and shoulder pads, which are very trendy.

As you can see from the many examples, you can easily style two pieces that don't seem to belong together. You can find inspiration anywhere around you and try out the things you were too nervous to wear before. After all, this is what fashion is about: playing with styles and being creative.
