I’m so so so into this running shoe trend right now. I hope it’s not a trend and stays forever and ever. I love wearing heels because I feel a little bit sassier in them, but walking everywhere in the city can be a serious pain (literally) in heels.
And the way these sneaks are being styled, it’s so chic! A little bit sporty, but oh-so-chic. I have a pair of little grey sneakers from H&M which are great in the spring and summer. So casual and easy to throw on when I have to run a million errands and don’t take the subway anywhere.
My favorite part about these trendy sneakers? They work with basically my most favorite (and most worn) outfit: white blouse, cropped jeans. Now we’re a few months and quite a few degrees off from being able to pull of this look without a sweater and coat, but I’m getting prepared.
Okay, but actually. I just need to get my hands on a pair. I’m drinking the Kool-Aid on this one.
I’m for sure getting a pair, I simply cannot help myself. But which to get?!
I've just recently started wearing tennis shoes more because I really messed up my achilles tendon by wearing heels so often! I seriously hope this isn't just a trend, because I'm totally loving prancing around in my Nikes.
I have the black Nike ones (but in Pink), and find they are great for actual running but too bulky to pull off the casual look with. I like the grey or navy New Balance ones, I see them everywhere around London and always think they look cool!
this trend is really cute and can pulled off very well with a slim pair of cute sneakers. I loved the vintage ones that J. Crew had a little while back.
I am a huge fan of the atomic pink Free 5.0 Nikes. I have multiple pairs of Nikes from the Free collection, and they are probably the best running shoes I've used. I say try them!
I LOVE the purple ones and had them on my Christmas list but could not find them ANYWHERE (both in stores and online) in my size (6.5). They had them in blue, white, and green (Hartford Whalers colors!) but I just wasn't as attached to them as I was to the purple.
If you are looking for a non-bulky option, I own the "Atomic Pink" Nike Frees and they are SO incredibly light! The sole is flexible and the sides are super soft, I've actually carried them in my purse before with no fuss. They come in tons of colors as well.
I love the trend too!! I agree with Jessica that it feels bulky on me, but maybe I need a lesson in styling them. I think it's time to take a peek at the JCrew Style Guide haha. Thanks for sharing some great options!
I'm not a huge fan of the New Balance sneakers… They remind me of the nineties. I wanted some in elementary school and they ran too narrow for my abnormally large seven-year-old feet. 🙁

✨ leave a comment with “SKIN” and I’ll send you all the products mentioned here ✨
I turned 35 in September and while I’ve always tried to take good care of my skin I wanted to really prioritize skincare from the inside out. At this point, I’m not doing any kind of injectables (not that I’m against them broadly speaking btw... just sharing that I haven’t done anything) and I don’t want to do anything invasive. I have made some small adjustments to my everyday life though that has made a difference. In just a few months, I really think my skin has never looked better (and I include infancy here because I unfortunately had baby acne ) and I’m really feeling good:
– Fresh washcloths after cleansing skin (@weezietowels “makeup” washcloths are cute, super soft, and very practical) – @omniluxled Omnilux Contour Face (this red light therapy mask has CHANGED the game for my skin. I use it 3-4x a week and it only takes 10 minutes per session!) – @jolieskinco filtered showerhead (I’ve noticed a difference in both my skin AND hair) – @ritual HyaCera (one capsule every night– it works from the inside out to help reduce the appearance of fine lines)
While I think my skin looks great on its own right now (🙌🏻 love to say that!), it also is serving as the best base for makeup. Sharing my current everyday routine: – @supergoop Mineral Unseen Sunscreen – @summerfridays Sheer Skin Tint (shade 1) – @merit Bronze Balm Sheer Sculpting Bronzer (shade clay) – @saiebeauty Dew Blush Liquid Cream (shade chilly) – @jonesroadbeauty Shimmer Face Oil (shade cool rose) – @sephora collection Eyebrow Gel (shade ebony) – @honest Extreme Length Mascara – @urbandecaycosmetics 24/7 Glide On Eyeliner (shade demolition) – @iliabeauty Balmy Lip Tint (shade lullaby)
girlhood 🫶🏻 find friends who want to do the same little hobbies as you! Went over to @shihstitches’ house yesterday to give her some sourdough starter and go through the basics (I’m *very much* a beginner so I told her to take my lesson with a grain of salt)
PS convinced her to make an IG account! @blueskyehouse
PPS she’s convincing me I really do need a fancy range like her ✨ stunning ✨ @lacanche.usa
Just a girl searching for the perfect digital planner solution. What I have right now is working, technically speaking, but I’m working across platforms and ideally I’d love everything to be in one place. I also have calendar synesthesia (IYKYK) and I physically feel myself in space moving through my calendar, which makes finding a planner difficult because I want/need it to match up with what I see in my head I know this sounds insane but if you also “see” time, you know what I mean!
Right now I’m using: – Google Sheets to track campaigns/business line items – Google docs for writing/brainstorming – Google/Apple Calendars (somehow they’re integrated and I don’t ask questions because it just works...) – Apple Notes for daily to-dos, random note keeping, and quick jot downs – Apple Reminders for “must dos” esp w/ deadlines – Dropbox for photo/file storage
I’m craving a good ole fashioned paper planner but the reality is that I need it to be digital. I need it to integrate with my calendar and remind me of tasks. I need to be able to access it on my computer when I’m working at my desk and on my phone when I’m on the go. I need structure and flexibility?
Does the perfect digital planner exist?! Do I need to overcome my overwhelm and tackle @notionhq? Is an @apple iPad the solution? Do I just keep doing what I’m doing because it’s technically working?
If you’ve stuck around to the end, I appreciate you 🫡
I created a beautiful, custom silk photo album from @printique_by_adorama to remember my sweet dog Hamilton, who passed away earlier this year. Their layflat album captured the colors and details perfectly, making each photo feel so special. It’s a keepsake I’ll cherish forever, and I’m so grateful for the quality and love they put into every page. #printiquepartner
… and yet you must. This week has been the hardest yet. Pressure from work, pressure from myself, pressure from the world. The magnitude of reality feels too much and too heavy. Showing up for my children though when I can barely show up for myself.
We’ve noticed an improvement in Teddy’s vitality and digestion since switching to @primalpetfoods Kibble in the Raw! It’s the easiest way to give him the benefits of raw nutrition without losing the convenience of dry kibble since it’s freeze dried into bites and completely scoopable. You would never guess he’s 11 years old with these moves at the park! #primalpetfoodspartner #ad
I like the navy and pink combo or the rugby purple combo! Both would be so great 🙂

I totally agree; I hope it's a forever thing too! My favorite is the navy! Classic 🙂

I'm all about the Nike high tops right now – I just got a pair of black sneaks and I feel pretty bad ass tromping around in them.
I like the navy and pink, atomic pink, and jade violet!

Loving the atomic pink pair!
I like the navy and pink pair or the grey and neon pair! I am really loving this trend as well!

I love the rugby purple pair — so similar to the Pantone color of the year!

I have this pair and it's kind of perfect! They are really light so it almost feels like you have no shoes on, which is really nice for long walking trips… http://www.reebok.de/frauen-realflex-fusion-tr-3.0/V46268_530.html

LOVE the navy pair! great picks. xo jillian – cornflake dreams
I LOVE the purple ones and had them on my Christmas list but could not find them ANYWHERE (both in stores and online) in my size (6.5). They had them in blue, white, and green (Hartford Whalers colors!) but I just wasn't as attached to them as I was to the purple.
I like the trend on other people, but I just can't do it myself. Maybe I need to search for a pair that isn't quite so bulky.
If you are looking for a non-bulky option, I own the "Atomic Pink" Nike Frees and they are SO incredibly light! The sole is flexible and the sides are super soft, I've actually carried them in my purse before with no fuss. They come in tons of colors as well.

Your so missing out – Onitsuka Tiger by Asics is the way to go!

I love the rugby purple pair! They could almost be passed off for a neutral color with most outfits!

I love all of them! I don't think I would ever rock them though, other than at the gym. All of the shoes are adorable!

sneakers are for WORKING OUT. this isn't a "trend" by any means. you wear sneakers en route to the gym.
Not a fan of sneakers being worn anywhere other than for working out. However for the gym these are some very cute picks Carly.
