Stars like Bad Bunny and Bella Hadid have also gotten on board with the sprightly accessorizing. At a Knicks playoff game, Bad Bunny sported his own Adidas collaboration (a flex!): a slim, yellow striped sneaker. His outfit, an all-black look with a leather bomber, was demure—yet his shoes injected the look with some personality. Ditto for supermodel Bella Hadid in New York City, when she sported a jersey top with denim cut-off shorts and sneakers that color-blocked yellow and red. Fun.
Even if you’re a serious devotee of quiet brands like The Row or Phoebe Philo, and are largely afraid of brazen colors, you have to admit: an unconventionally-hued sneaker is a pretty low-lift risk to take. Sneakers go with pretty much everything, from dresses to suits. And in a mossy or highlighter shade, they have the potential be an instant outfit-maker. All of this to say: Consider putting the classic heels or Alaïa mesh flats down, and please, join the unorthodox sneaker train instead. Why blend in, when you can stand out?
