The It Girl–Approved Way to Wear Dresses With Sneakers

Considering the fact that there are a handful of outfits that will always look good, you can build a completely foolproof wardrobe for the season if you really put your mind to it. However, if there's one ensemble we had to pick as our favorite, it would be a dress with sneakers. Don't get us wrong. We love skinny jeans with ankle boots as much as any other outfit, but in case you want to switch things up a bit, this one really takes the cake.

To prove our point, we rounded up some of our favorite takes on the look from the coolest fashion people. Check them out below.
