Practicality is the name of the game right now. More than ever, I find myself shoving anything fussy or high-maintenance to the back of my closet. When it comes to shoes, I'm pretty much only wearing one style when I leave the house to walk the dog or get groceries: slip-on sneakers. I've always been a germaphobe, but now I'm extra conscious of minimizing the number of things I have to touch. Hence, being able to slide my sneakers on and off without having to touch my dirty shoes is so helpful.
That said, slip-on sneakers certainly don't have to be boring, as Lucy Hale just demonstrated. Photographed at the grocery store, Hale wore a super-casual outfit including a baseball cap, crew-neck sweater, and leggings. Of course, I'm especially drawn to her cute Vans Slip-On Sneakers ($50) because the red-and-white colorway is a fun update to the traditional black-and-white checkerboard. Scroll down to shop Lucy Hale's Vans slip-on sneakers.
