Don’t Skip This Trend: Stylish Sneakers

Admittedly, sneakers have a bad wrap with the fashionable set. That tide seems to be turning; after all, Karl Lagerfeld sent stylish kicks down Chanel’s Spring 2014 couture runway and so did Dior. So what gives?

“In the history of fashion, around 1800 to 1840 or 1845, women had flat shoes,” Lagerfeld said after the show. “Even with a ball gown, they had flat shoes.”
