One of my biggest fashion pet peeves is jeans and running shoes, and yet this jeans and sneakers trend has won my heart. Let me clarify, there is a distinct difference between running shows and sneakers. Sneakers are meant for everyday use and running shoes are meant for working out. The most popular sneakers are New Balance and Nike. They come in a large range of colors and patterns and are ideal for a laid back look. The best way to style this trend is by pairing sneakers with cropped pants or maybe even a lace maxi skirt.
