Running Through a Sea of Flowers: Sneakers with Floral Patterns

Sneakers are the quintessential sports shoe. With playful floral patterns you can wear them no matter what the occasion is –they can be worn clubbing, on city strolls or even in the office. Here’s our style advice on sneakers with floral patterns:

Picture-perfect: dainty flower illustrations

Cotton sneakers with colorful flower tendrils all-over are more often reserved for women. If, however, the shoes are made of dark leather and the flowers are incorporated sparingly, men too can venture into the field of flowers.

Wear them with: Figure-hugging cotton pants in light shades for women and laid-back chinos in beige or brown for men. Neither gender can go wrong with polo shirts that are color-coordinated with the sneakers. Women can also wear a white blouse if they so wish. Thick leather bracelets make the look more masculine.

Hello Hawaii! Motley flower prints

You don’t need to be ready for the islands to bring color into your everyday (fashion) life with motley sneakers. Floral patterns, especially those in loud colors like sun yellow or orange, are shown off to their best advantage against a black background.

Wear them with: Men should opt for short jeans or well-fitting sweat pants. Denim shorts and a white tank top are the best option for women.

For the office monochrome look: black and white flowers

Sneakers with a floral pattern can be worn to the office, so long as the pattern is black and white and the shoes are part of an understated monochrome look.

Wear them with: Jeans or chinos with a black T-shirt or shirt, depending on the office dress code. A classy cardigan smartens up the look. Women should opt for a black or white maxi dress and silver jewelry.

Flashing neons

Don’t be afraid to show your true colors with floral sneakers in neon shades!

Wear them with: Jeans and a T-shirt in one of the colors of your shoes. Women can vary the look with skinny jeans or a denim skirt as well as a tank top. Cute dresses don’t really go with colorful sports shoes.

The combination of floral patterns with sneakers requires a few style guidelines: other flowers as well as other prints should not appear in the rest of the outfit. And: sneakers rule out elegant dresses. Denim or cotton dresses mainly work in more ‘out-there’ styles.
