There is nothing easier than wearing sneakers, but don’t be so lazy that you schlep around in the same kicks you work out in. I am guilty (like, right now) of wearing my exercise sneakers all day long on days I work out, so I definitely don’t want to be so sporty during my off-gym days. But I’m still a sucker for ease – like on weekends or when I’m picking the kids and going to the farmer’s market (yes, my life is super-exciting). These Ash Virgin sneakers are perfect, with as much comfort as cool to go the distance.
Anne Hathaway has been jetting all over the place, from LAX Airport to dog-walking in Brooklyn, in her four-buckle trainers. Actually make that five – I love the multiple details, especially that extra buckle curving around the heel. Wear this Converse-inspired leather look with with jeans and a blazer and you can pretty much get anywhere (in LA, at least). Ash Virgin 4-Buckle Sneaker on ShopBop for $175. Also available at Ash Soho: 44 Mercer Street in New York , 646-422-7098. For other colors (even though this gray is the best), they are on sale for $92.50 at Madison LA. I got the “Seal” which is a dark brown.
