I literally call this look “party on top…casual on the bottom.” It’s rare I find a sneaker that I absolutely love. One that is sleek and classic, and a bit vintage. Tretorn‘s classic sneaker is super retro-inspired. It’s a shoe my Mom and Dad would have worn together in one of their classic 70’s flashbacks complete with neon sport shorts and two matching bikes. But I love this sneaker with a dramatic party on the top. I went with a bold billowing off-shoulder blouse, and some vintage inspired cropped flares. As I’ve grown older, I realized that less is more. You never need to over-style anything ever again ladies.

I’ve totally just hit up the sneaker department HARD lately. After wearing so many uncomfortable shoes for years on set for shoots, and walking the streets of NY with bandaged heels, I thought, “I really need to invest in some proper kicks.” They have saved my feet. Not to mention, it’s the perfect excuse to take on classic Swedish style. Just pair something totally classic and chic, dressed down with the perfect beat-up sneaker. Duster coat by Rodebjer (must-have Swedish brand), an embellished mini, and my favorite white tee. Oh, how I miss Stockholm! Where minimalism is key, and effortless is everything. Next to my favorite Pumas, Vans, and Nike sneakers, I’ve also recently went GA-GA over Brit brand Gola who I just shot with for the S/S ’15 campaign. Shop below my favorites.
