Unquestionably comfy, sneakers can also be oh-so stylish. Find inspiration for your fall wardrobe from these 15 effortlessly cool sneaker looks showcased by bloggers and fashionistas.
1. Leopard Print: If your style is more minimal, sneakers are your chance to go crazy with a print. Pair it with a slouchy coat to keep things really casual. (via Damsel in Dior)
2. Brights: Start with a simple black and white base, and add pops of color with bright sneakers and accessories in coordinating shades. (via Song of Style)
3. Black and White: Keep classic Nike’s from looking too athletic by going with a sleek black and white theme. We’re loving the pop of yellow from the jacket lining. (via Damsel in Dior)
4. Houndstooth Print: Don’t be afraid to match your sneakers with your dress. The trick is to go with different-sized prints to keep it from looking too matchy-matchy. (via Pop Sugar)
5. Skirt + Sneakers: Miniskirts can be totally fall-appropriate paired with opaque black tights. Pair the look with a pair of high tops to look back-to-school cool. (via Frassy)

12. New Balance Sneakers: An all-black outfit, chunky jewelry and a funky bag can make you forget that these shoes are technically meant for the gym. Keep the sneakers in the same color palette as the outfit and accessories for a streamlined look. (via Man Repeller)
13. Overalls: Denim overalls are the new jeans. Paired with sneakers, they’re perfect for a comfy day of wandering around town. Add a leather jacket and aviator shades to give the look a bit of edge. (via We Wore What)
14. Snakeskin: Let your metallic/snakeskin/other crazy printed sneakers take center stage by wearing them with a solid-colored outfit. Shorts plus a long coat are a great way to transition your wardrobe into fall. (via The Blonde Salad)
