There's nothing like swapping insulated boots for comfortable trainers. I've been waiting for this moment for several weeks now, and white trainers are the basic pillar of my spring shoe rack.
How to wear white trainers?
I often talk to women about fashion and I constantly run into the prejudice that trainers are for the "young", or even teenagers. Many managers and businesswomen feel they're inappropriate footwear, or don't even know how they should wear trainers. (if I don't count a walk in the woods, of course) When I tell them they can wear them with a suit too, they're even more shocked. Sooo I decided that this time I'd present white trainers "the elegant way" and show that they look truly divine even with a suit. This season (single-)colour suits are totally IN, and if you pick a more casual model with a loose, above all unlined blazer, trainers are practically the ideal footwear for it.

And how much does a good outfit cost?
Another prejudice I'd like to demolish is that dressing well is a question of money. It isn't! All the more so in this fast age when completely cheap and affordable brands practically have a better offering than the expensive ones. We're not talking about quality, of course, just about image. So I headed into shops I don't normally visit and put together this outfit for 120 Euro. Yes, the whole thing, including the glasses and trainers (apart from the watch and handbag).
