SS19 TREND REPORT: THE CHUNKY TRAINER

SS19 TREND REPORT: THE CHUNKY TRAINER

            I’m so happy to be back with my series of SS19 trend reports, where I break down my favourite fashion trends of the coming season, and how you can easily shop and style this trend into your  own wardrobe.


Next up in my SS19 Trend Report series is the chunky trainer, the “Dad” trainer, or the “ugly” trainer trend, as many like to call it! This is a trend that’s become hugely popular over the past few seasons, thanks to the Balenciaga It-shoe which you can spot all over  your instagram feed right now. My favourite thing about this trend is that, first and foremost, its such a comfy option, I mean you can’t really get more comfortable than a pair of chunky trainers, can you? They’re perfect for casual days where you’re running around town, travelling, or just want to give a sports luxe vibe to your look. I’ve really been enjoying working this trend into my wardrobe, and it’s quickly become a staple in my day to day looks.


The Inspo:

How to style:

  • With your favourite high waisted mom jeans and a band tee for a dressed down look
  •  Pair with a floaty summer dress for a girly look that’s still comfortable
  •  Wear with an on-trend midi skirt and a chunky cardigan for a cosy look
  •  Switch up a suit by pairing it with chunky trainers for a streetstyle feel

 


 Get the Look:

My favourite brands for chunky runners at the moment are Jeffrey Campbell (over €100) and Fila (under €100) and I have pairs from both brands in my wardorbe! Here are some of my favourites

Jeffrey Campbell Lo Fi Sneakers – these are the exact style I have been wearing so much recently, the white colour means they go with everything and anything

Jeffrey Campbell Hotline Dad Sneakers – I also love these for an even more chunky style

Fila Disruptor II Premium Sneakers – I also have this exact style and wore them to death last summer

Fila Ray Tracer Sneakers

Fila Boveasorus Sneakers

The closest dupe of the Balenciagas I have found are the Ash “Addict” trainers. They’re still pricey at over €200 but the quality looks great and they are a fantastic dupe for the Triple S style. There are so many gorgeous  chunky trainer styles available on the highstreet right now, with something there for every budget. I’ve compiled a list of my favourite pieces available right now, a few of which I already have myself.

    We hope you re not tickle-ish because for SS19 feather accessorised sandals are majorly on trend. Whether they are decorated at the heel, on the straps or all over they’re here to stay for spring and summer. Bringing sheer holiday vibes, they were casually dressed with wide leg pants or formally paired with dresses and skirts.

    I LOVE chunky trainers – in fact, I’m always looking for a good, thick sole when looking for shoes – the Fila Disrupters are ssooooo comfortable – love your blog.

    Nice post! I loved all your outfits and the way you wore them. Thanks for sharing such a lovely collection of outfits with cool accessories. I’m obsessed with these outfits and your fashion style. I’ll definitely try these outfits with my belly lip piercing jewelry. In these days Lip Piercing is a huge trends. The lips can say so much, and when it comes to adorning them with piercings, they say a whole lot more! Thanks for the lovely post.

    This is really something what, I’m looking for. Thanks a lot for this post. You look damn hot in these outfits. A fashion accessory is a decorative item that supplements one’s outfit. An accessory adds color, style, and class in an outfit. Well, if I’d be asked to add accessories to my style, I would prefer Owl scarf in the first place. The Owl scarf have become very popular.
