lace sneakers May 15, 2015New York City You may remember me raving on and on about my black Old Navy sneakers that I purchased last year and how comfortable they were. I still wear them – almost every day actually! They’re the perfect slip-on shoes to wear to PureBarre, since I have to slip them off to throw on those special no-slip socks for the class. The only issue with that pair is that they are quilted black leather… Not quite the look I want for summer, right? Flash forward to the Lilly Pulitzer for Target collection launch. I was running around the store grabbing stuff for my mom and myself, when I spotted this pair of lace sneakers in the shoe section. Totally unrelated to the Lilly collection, but I had to have them. This pair is so easy and comfortable – they’re the perfect summer sneakers! Slip-on sneakers are such a good alternative to sandals when you know you’re going to be walking quite a bit (like in New York!). On one of the warmer days, I paired them with my newest BB DAKOTA addition, this simple sleeveless dress. Another ideal piece for when the temps skyrocket this summer here in Dallas! { photography by Lydia Hudgens } Dress: BB DAKOTA, Bag: c/o Cuyana, Shoes: Mossimo, Sunglasses: Karen Walker, Diamond Earrings (UK option here), Bracelet: c/o Brandy Pham, Ring: Michael Kors (on sale!)
