How to Style Leather Sneakers for Women: Outfit Ideas

In almost all my outfit-idea blog posts, I found two items that always show up: white sneakers and black leather boots. I though that was interesting and actually gave myself a good idea of how versatile they are. Then, I had an interesting thought. Can I wear something inbetween and look good? The answer is yes and the child of the two items is the leather sneakers. They are actually quite easy to style. To give you a good start, I have put together a list of some of the best leather sneakers outfit ideas. Let’s take a look at them now.

This outfit idea is just here to remind you that you don’t always have to wear invisible socks with low top leather sneakers. A pair of cool looking trouser socks can actually work pretty well with the sneakers too. A quick tip is that the trouser socks usually look better for hose with thin legs. It is still safer to wear invisible socks for those that have relatively thicker legs.

Wear with Oversize Tweed Jacket
