$140, topshop

My sister bought this lacy top in London last week, wore it to a fashion shoot and prompted must-buy mayhem on the set. (The top is now sold out in the UK!) I just snapped up one for myself on the US site!

1. Topshop drawstring lace blouse,
2. No. 21 cat eye sunglasses,
3. Dior Lip Glow Pomade in Universal Pink,
4. Rebecca Minkoff bag,
5. Golden Goose sneakers,
6. Re/Done denim skirt,

A nagging (and painful!) episode of plantar fasciitis has me running around mostly in sneakers these days. So, in an effort to stay on my stylish toes, I recently snapped up a new (yet very old school) pair of Converse Skate kicks to throw into my gym-sneaker-white-tennis-shoe rotation. These black sneakers are currently all the rage Down Under--evidenced here by these Australian Fashion Week snaps--most likely because they're versatile, comfortable and yet statement-y. Exactly what I need right now!

Four weeks of flitting to and from runway shows in New York, London, Milan and Paris had fashionistas forsaking their fancy footwear for--hallelujah!--norm-core sneakers. Like the kind cost less than $100. I'm all for this trend, because it's one that I can shamelessly/easily execute in my running-around, everyday life. There are so many--almost too many!--good options, but I'd boil it down to these by Vans, New Balance, Adidas, Nike and Converse.
