Jacket: H&M (similar here)
You have to be comfortable to walk around NYC all day, so sneakers are an absolute must. Luckily, norm-core sneakers are having a major comeback, and are surprisingly stylish. You can pair them with just about anything, from trousers (like i did above) to jeans or a summer dress. My next purchase is definitely a pair of Adidas Stan Smith sneakers, which have been seen on both the fashion elite and celebrities alike. Sneakers definitely up the cool factor on just about any outfit, so definitely try them out and see what look you like best! The possibilities are endless.
