Wait, Is This Easy Skirt Trend the Key to Making Trainers Look Pretty?
If you want to make your white trainers feel a whole lot prettier, this is the chic skirt style I recommend you try.
Lately, I’ve found myself in a bit of a trainers rut. As much as I love my go-to pairs, figuring out how to style them in a way that feels fresh and pretty—especially during these warmer days—has proven a challenge. Instead, I’ve been defaulting to sandals and Mary Janes most mornings, but after several consecutive days, my feet start pleading for the comfort only trainers can provide.
Unable to ignore the growing aches much longer, I’ve been on the hunt for a few wardrobe updates to help breathe new life into my beloved sneakers. And this week, Pamela Anderson offered up just the inspiration I was looking for.
Stepping out in London, the actor wore a sunshine-hued ensemble, styling a butter-yellow Ralph Lauren knit, complete with elegant cable detailing, with a matching skirt—a swishy, pastel yellow number—that completed her light, on-trend look. On her feet, a pair of classic white trainers embellished with metallic gold detailing that traced the sides. Paired with the fluid skirt, her shoes instantly felt distinctly elevated and more pretty.
Choosing a skirt in arguably the chicest colour trend of 2025, Anderson instantly made her simple white trainers feel thoroughly modern. If, like me, you’re looking to step back into your trainers this summer, scroll on for my edit of the best yellow skirts to try now.
