Turn your ballerina daydreams into streetstyle, and step into sneakers that blend girly charm with everyday comfort.
We’ve seen it emerging through the fragments of our childhood dreams - the ballet aesthetic is slowly but surely taking over the sneaker scene, and who are we to complain! Soft silhouettes, delicate details, and a fresh dose of femininity combined with comfort? A total win in our books.
Why leave the magic of ballet in childhood? Our top sneaker picks:
Mexico 66 TGRS
Onitsuka Tiger
Vintage vibes meets ballerina charm with the Mexico 66 TGRS - there’s something about these that bring back something nostalgic and long forgotten, but in the best way! The thin double strap Mary Jane look combined with floral border details turns this classic sneaker into something feminine and totally fresh. Slip them on with skirts or jeans for an easy look that's effortless but fun.
Speedcat Ballets
Puma
Sporty but sweet, slip on these simple but stylish sneakers on your trip to Pilates, brunch or even the supermarket. Its slim silhouette and playful elastic straps channels serious balletcore, except it got a cool, sporty upgrade. Perfect for adding a little edge to your outfits that’s still girls but still a little lowkey - it’s giving ballerina off-duty.
XT-Whisper Sandy Liang
Salomon
Something unexpected? Salomon x Sandy Liang wasn’t on the cards but we’re kinda obsessed? Gorpcore and bows weren’t a combo we thought we’d ever witness but the XT-Whisper exceeds expectations, mixing rugged outdoor style with soft pastel colours and ultra girly details. Fashion-forward, stands out from the crowd and exceptional comfort and support - you’ll be ready to take on the world with these bad girls.
Taekwondo Mei Ballet Shoes
Adidas
Love the trends? Step out those Sambas, it’s time for Taekwondo Mei, and they’re so much more comfortable. Adidas keeps it simple with a similar silhouette to your overworn staples but even more flattering than before! Their branding blends in seamlessly into the lace up design that gives you freedom to tie them how you like - plus it’ll probably go with everything you already have in your wardrobe.
These sneakers are proof you can have it all - comfort, style and a touch of girly magic. Whether it's the vintage charm, sporty details or playful bows and pastels, these nostalgic kicks let you step through your day with grace and elegance in comfort.
