20 Under-$40 Dresses to Wear With Sneakers This Spring
When I think of easy spring outfit ideas, few are more top of mind than the classic dress-and-sneaker combo. After all, everyone owns (at least) one pair of sneakers, and when the weather finally turns dress-appropriate, they quickly become the only thing you want to wear. Plus, it’s pretty much as comfortable an outfit as it gets, while still looking put together and polished.
Since I know you have the footwear component down—if you don’t, we’ve got you covered there too—I thought today (only the second official day of spring) would be as good a time as any to round up our favorite affordable dresses to wear with your sneakers. From polished midis that you can also wear to work to flowy maxis and fun minidresses, see and shop our favorites from our Who What Wear collection for Target and get some outfit inspo via Instagram along the way.
White sneakers perfectly complement the white in the print of this maxi dress. Lucky for us all, they also go with pretty much everything else and are always guaranteed to look polished.
