Jennifer Lawrence Keeps It Stylish and Practical in Sneakerinas

The Oscar-winning actress, who is arguably one of the most well-known actors in the last decade, once again made headlines, this time not for her acting but for wearing an everyday shoe that is comfortable and continues to trend: the sneakerina. Lawrence was in New York, and during her travels, she was wearing Wales Bonner snekaerina shoes! The direct image of this shoe design pulls together the look of a ballet flat with the comfortable practicality of a sneaker. So, the sneakerina gives style with comfort. 

The pair that Lawrence featured, has an easy Mary Jane style with a Velcro strap and a thick rubber Vibram sole to add extra durability and comfort while you're on the foot. The style is really perfect for a long day out in the city, especially if walking lots. Lawrence chose a casual outfit to go with her Wales Bonner shoes, which included wide-legged linen trousers, a graphic T-shirt, and a cardigan. The outfit turned out looking great, and yet, the inspiration looked just thrown together like it was easy enough to wear, but considered at the same time! This effortless balance is what many fans expect from Lawrence, who frequently balances 'comfort' with fashion-forward ideas.

Lawrence is no stranger to the sneakerina in terms of wearing them in public; she has already come across varying versions of the trend multiple times in the last year, and her continued wear of the style has kept the trend public. Along with the support of the sneakerina trend on the fashion runways, where brands such as Simone Rocha, Cecilie Bahnsen and Louis Vuitton showed their own styles.

Why Sneakerina Shoes Are Trending This Summer

Sneakerinas have quickly become a practical yet fashionable summer shoe option for many. With a lightweight, breathable design like a ballet flat and grip and support of a sneaker, they are perfect for everyday wear. This trend has not only been embraced by celebrities, but it has even been embraced by the public, with both luxury designers and mainstream taking on variations of the sneakerina.

Jennifer Lawrence is a big part of why sneakerinas aren’t just considered a trend that has run its course; she is also known for her approachable on-the-street style preferences including comfort, and as she often pairs unique designer pieces with functional clothing. Between mesh flats and jelly sandals, the shoes she chooses always set a standard of what is wearable and fashionable (without looking like an extravagant creature of the night).
