Mixing the incongruous in recent years is popular not only in cooking. Fashion designers offer to combine the convenience of a sporty style and the femininity of romantic models. Famous brands add heeled shoes to the collection.
A bit of history
Elements of sportswear are firmly entrenched in everyday wardrobe; such details add lightness and playfulness to the image. One of the trends of recent years has become heeled shoes. Such shoes are gaining more and more popularity and are found in the assortment of many brands.
Designers of the Nike brand were the first to launch such a non-standard model on the market. To the usual sneakers, they added a high stiletto heel. A new unusual look of shoes made a splash: someone liked the idea for its originality, while others decided that such sneakers are completely impractical and ugly. The Nike brainchild survived the first wave of popularity in 2012. But the debate about the attractiveness of the model has not subsided so far. Nevertheless, stilettos sneakers have taken their niche in the range of women's shoes quite firmly, and interest in them does not fade.
At the moment, Nike produce sneakers with the rise of all possible colors. Most often, the models are plain with inserts of a different, contrasting color.
Trying to keep up with the competition, the sports giant Adidas also released a collection of sneakers on the rise. The designer of the collection was Isabelle Marant. Her models are characterized by greater conservatism and lower heel height.
Media persons and celebrities immediately appreciated the novelty. Miranda Kerr, Rihanna, Kim Kardashian and many others found strollers in unusual shoes.
Stiletto sneakers add a sporty, casual look to your outfit. And the evening look with such an element will not look boring.Sports shoes have become a real revolution in the shoe market, quite conservative and not amenable to change. That is why real fashionistas were quick to get such sneakers for themselves.
Kinds
On the shelves of shops and in the collections of designers you can find sports shoes with the rise of a variety of colors and textures. Nike produces bright, eye-catching models of matte and patent leather, increases the height of the studs and adds more and more extreme shades to the model line. Among them are futuristic silver women's sneakers, shoes of acid tones - pink, purple, blue and light green.
Such models look feminine and at the same time bold.
To give alongside romance sneakers are decorated with a bright print, satin ribbons. Lovers of a more rocker, informal look will love wedge sneakers decorated with metal studs or spikes.
Despite the fact that almost all heeled sneakers are equipped with lacing or Velcro, most often it is nothing more than a decorative element. Sports shoes are fastened with a zipper on the side.
Due to the increased popularity, warmed models of wedge sneakers appeared on sale. Demi-season options are made of leather and cover the top. Winter sneakers are insulated with synthetic material or fur. Such models are most often made in restrained tones.
Wedges
Shoes with hidden heels are comfortable and extra comfortable. Sport models are no exception. For the first time, wedge sneakers were introduced by Adidas. The rise in such shoes is hidden by a cloth. Wedge models are very stable. They are great for long walks, the leg in them does not get tired as much as when wearing stilettos.
Wedge sneakers are especially popular among teenagers. Often, a high heel is uncomfortable and can adversely affect the formation of the foot. Wedges are devoid of these shortcomings. At the same time, running shoes on a continuous rise visually lengthen the legs and make the image more feminine. Such shoes are suitable for any event: going to the cinema or cafe, to a party.
Sneakers - these are the so-called wedge heels that caused much less controversy than a similar heeled model. They liked the lovers of sports style, and romantic natures who prefer dresses and skirts, due to their versatility. Warm sneakers have a great advantage. They are very stable and do not slip, due to the relief of the sole.
What to wear?
Despite the fact that designers offer to combine sneakers with a rise with any clothes, it is worth being extremely careful when choosing an ensemble. Heeled sports shoes can add a twist to an image, but can ruin it hopelessly.
The most versatile option is to combine sneakers on the rise with jeans. Skinny models or ripped jeans will look great. Designers recommend observing color harmony: one of the details of clothing should match the color of the sneakers.
An elongated cardigan will add softness and romance to the look. Perfectly combine sneakers on a wedge or heel with jeans and a leather jacket. This image appealed to Nicole Scherzinger and Victoria Beckham.
In summer, sneakers will be a great addition to denim shorts and skirts. Such a combination, together with a bright top or a T-shirt, will look really bold and stylish. An everyday romantic look, consisting of a narrow skirt and a soft wide sweater, wedge sneakers will add a fashionable twist. Such an outfit will look more relaxed.
Heeled sneakers are a rather bright and unusual detail, therefore, choosing such shoes you need to carefully select accessories. Fashion experts recommend staying on small, discreet jewelry to match the shoes. This rule does not apply to bags: sneakers look great with large shapeless bags and elegant clutches.
What combinations to avoid?
The most unsuccessful will be the combination of sneakers or stilettos with sport pants. This outfit is only suitable for very informal girls. It is not recommended to supplement ankle-length dress or asymmetrical dress with sports shoes. This combination will inevitably visually shorten the length of the legs.
Celebrities appeared in stilettos even on red carpet. For example, Kristen Stewart chose them as an addition to a long lace dress. But such an image does not look very harmonious and is perplexing. Another fashionable “no” follows from this: the combination of heeled shoes with lace can ruin a fashionable outfit and look tasteless.
It is worth being wary of summer open-nose sneakers. Such a model looks strange and in few places would be appropriate.
In order not to be accused of bad taste, outfits with sneakers on the heel and wedge heel must be selected carefully. Then comfortable shoes will complement your image, but not destroy it.
