White trainers are my people. I love them. They go with everything.
Well I think so anyway, but I know some people struggle to break away from wearing them just with jeans and a tee.
So when I was trawling through, ehm, doing some research, on Pinterest the other night, I started to see heaps of other great looks that the lovely ladies of the interwebs have put together with said white trainers.
Now, we have established that I love white trainers. IĀ also love using Pinterest as inspiration for my own outfits, so I thought, why not combine those two loves into a blog post for yooooou (whom I also love, btw).
So here are 10 fresh ways to wear white trainers (and also, if you scroll down, I’ve got a couple of different pairs you could nab should you not already have white trainers in your wardrobe. See, I look after you).
1. With a Pleated Skirt

I love the contrast of feminine in the skirt, and more casual with the shoes. If its cooler, just add a jacket or a knit to this look.
2. All Black + White

Make the white trainers the statement with a chic, all black look – perfect for winter so you can add as many layers are you want.
3. With a Pencil Skirt

The neatness of the pencil skirt helps with the flat shoe (even if you are shorter), try tucking your top in to help make your legs look longer though š
4. With a maxi dress

I think this is officially my favourite look! I just love the floatiness of the maxi dress, and the edginess of the leather jackets
5. With White Jeans

Fresh and white for winter, what more could you love? (I’ve also added merino in the cardigan to keep warm)
6. The Usual.

Nothing wrong with a good old pair of blue jeans + your whities. Such a classic, easy-to-wear weekend look
7. In Summer

Hey, I know its winter now, but you can totally bookmark this and come back to it when it warms up again. In fact, I’m heading to Brisbane tomorrow, where it has been a balmy 24 degrees so I will be rocking this look all week!
8. With all of the sequins

Sequins are SO much fun, and are totally appropriate day time attire so why not pair them back with your fave white trainers?
9. Jumpin’ Jack Flashing with a Jumpsuit!

If you know me you know IĀ love a good jumpsuit, so add trainers and yay! If the pants are too long, just try cuffing the hems a little to expose your ankle.
10. With Some Jogger Pants
This is pretty much my standard daily uniform, but it’s soooooo comfy! Again, the trick is to make sure there is a wee bit of ankle exposed (yes you can do it, even in winter!)
And now, the other thingy that I promised. Where to get a great pair of white trainers yourself! Here are a few pairs that will work into almost anyone’s wardrobe…..

Yay love this I’ve just been trying to justify a pair of white trainers, I’ve a light grey as baby steps into the white look. š Now i need to get a pair cos i can so see them going with most things, would you wear them with your leather leggings from Obi?? Ive been kinda struggling to find the right things (other than my ankle boots) to wear with them.
I totally do wear them with my Obi leather leggings (especially when I was pregnant!) I also wear silver lace-up brogues with mine too
