Update Your Autumn Style With These 6 Sneakers

Sneakers are a game changer when it comes to transitional autumn style. From performance sneakers fit for a marathon run to platform low-tops that raise the bar, there’s a sneaker style to fit every personality. And for morning, noon, and night, they’re among the simplest of ways to update your summer style.

The past few seasons have transformed even the most staunch of naysayers to full-blown obsessives over these sporty kicks. Designers like Gucci and Balenciaga have filled their runway shows with sneakers from classic shapes in colourful metallic hues to the more controversial chunky sneaker trend that has gained momentum as of late. And your favourite go-to sneaker brands, like Nike and Superga, have taken their existing loves and elevated them to the next level by featuring varying textures and colours that will make your jaw drop.

This season, we love pairing our sneakers with casual jeans and wrap dresses, statement jackets, and midi skirts alike. In short, we can’t get enough when it comes to this wardrobe staple, especially for autumn. From lace dresses to tailored trousers, here are our favourite ways to wear sneakers that will instantly up the ante on your autumn style.

Go casual with a graphic tee and straight-leg jeans, finishing off your nostalgic look with a pair of colourful low-top sneakers.

Tone down a flirty eyelet dress with a denim jacket for brisk autumn mornings. Add a pair of classic sneakers with a subtle printed twist.

Wrap dresses are going to be your go-to all season long, but consider adding edgy toppers like a leather jacket and trendier footwear like a chunkier pair of sneakers.

A dress with added frills and ruffles is practically calling for a pair of sneakers. Consider a sportier vibe on your feet with your sophisticated look.

Grab the essentials, like a leather jacket and jeans, but opt for pops of colour and varying hues than you’re otherwise used to.

Just the classics: a ringer tee, skinny jeans, and bright white low-tops. This autumn, however, consider a platform style to throw it back to the early aughts.

As excited about all these sneaker trends as we are? It’s a sure bet we aren’t going to be taking off these sporty kicks at all this season—no matter what we’re wearing on top!
