Are you looking for an outfit that’s all about comfort and style? These 5 spring and summer sneaker outfits are perfect for those oh so casual days.
For years I wouldn’t wear sneakers with anything but workout clothes. I had this fear of looking like an 80s soccer mom with jeans way up over my belly button, shirt tightly tucked in and bright white sneakers.

Also, I used to work with teenagers and I’ll never forget one of them saying to me “Ms. Julie, you really shouldn’t wear sneakers with jeans – ever.”
But guess what? You can wear sneakers with jeans, my friend! 🙂
Sneaker outfits have come a long way and so have sneaker options in general. You can even wear sneakers with a dress and look like you’ve got it going on!
Currently, my favorite sneakers are my white converse and my black and white Nike Tanjuns. I really like planning converse outfits for when we go on vacation. They are one of the most versatile sneaker options there is. You can wear them with everything from dresses to jeans to shorts.

I’ve been experimenting with my Nike Tanjun sneakers and trying out different outfit ideas. I’ve worn them several times with my new Avery Crop Skinny Jeans (that are my new favorite pair of jeans!) and featured that outfit combo in this post about the best travel clothes for women. It’s now an outfit on repeat and I really like having this comfortable option as a go-to.
If you’re off on spring or summer break with your kids, then most likely you’re on the go quite a bit. You’re hitting up the different sights of your city. You’re on vacation. You’re meeting up with friends and family for outdoor BBQs. For all of these activities, it’s good to have a few sneaker outfits you know are a) comfortable and b) stylish.
Here are a few ideas for you!

Do you tend to grab your sneakers to wear when you know you’ll be out and about walking quite a bit? Or do you bring them on vacation with you? I do now and my feet thank me.
I hope these sneaker outfits gave you some inspiration for your spring and summer wardrobe!
LOVE every look and it has inspired me for today! That mermaid tee is perfect for my middle child.
Thanks Vicky! I’ve thought about getting that shirt for my daughter too.
Great post! I’ve been living in sneakers lately and I agree, I’m so happy fashion sneakers are on trend right now! I love them with boyfriend jeans and that striped dress and jean jacket.
I imagine you’re reaching that point in pregnancy where your feet start to hurt. Sneakers are the way to go! 🙂
I love all of these outfits…they are so chic yet wearing sneakers makes it so comfortable. My favorite may be the outfit with the Vans. I think those Vans take the outfit up a notch!!

That’s one of my favorites too. I have a pair of non-Vans that look very similar and I just love them!
