5 Pretty Trainers That'll Make You Ditch Your Heels |Best Knockoff Luxury Clothing

last updated 17 March 2021

As someone who has spent the best part of the last 10 years wearing heels, I felt largely exempt from fashion's trainer obsession. Most of my daily wares veer on the casual side (think straight-leg jeans with button-up blouses), so I've come to rely on heels—be they kitten or stiletto—to give my outfits a glossy finish. I couldn't help but notice, however, the that sneaker scene has changed of late. Instead of chunky styles that your dad would wear, there are heaps of pretty trainers coming through.

From over-the-top embellishments to beautiful blush tones, these trainers were made for women like me who feel most confident in fancy footwear. So I decided to congregate all of my favourite pretty trainers in one place for your shopping pleasure. Keep scrolling to see and shop the best souped-up sneaks around.

EXTRA EMBELLISHMENT

The maximalist fashion movement is still going strong, and no trainers are fancier than Gucci's jewel-encrusted Flashtreks. If the price puts you off, consider these styles from Dune and Russell Bromley.

METALLIC

Nothing makes an outfit sing quite like a metallic accessory, and trainers are one of the easiest ways to integrate them into your wardrobe. We suggest opting for the same metal hue you wear in jewellery for a cohesive look. Or you could always choose a fun pastel shade.

LEOPARD PRINT

It's one of 2019's biggest spring/summer trends, though it's no longer reserved for clothes. Leopard print is cropping up on kicks, too, and it has the power to make any outfit look glamorous. Try a pair with cropped jeans and a white blouse, or a pastel midi dress.
