Take notes from these ladies and style them with a midi dress in the summer and tailored pants and an oversize coat in the winter.

Customer Review: "Until Salomon, I had never found a pair of sneakers that suited my style enough to wear beyond during exercise. I live in NYC and walk everywhere, and these have held up.

Best Slip-On White Sneakers

These timeless slip-on shoes from Vans have been cult favorites since the Tumblr fashion days, with street style stars and musicians alike sporting the simple, lace-free silhouette. The durable canvas makes this pair a perfect choice for high-intensity walking or other activities (like biking and skateboarding) where you'll need a pair of sneakers with a durable lining and thick rubber sole to withstand impact.

Customer Review: "These are the shoes I have been searching for my entire life. Little did I know they were right under my nose. I'd always seen them and passed them up. The older I get, the lazier I get. No laces?! Sign me up! These are comfy. I have slightly wide feet and these really fit the bill in terms of not being too squished for my poor little feet. They are cute, go with everything, and are great every day shoe. No complaints thus far. I will continue to repurchase when these die."
