Not all sneakers are overly casual. There are plenty of dressy kicks in the market, and they typically come in clean silhouettes, muted colorways, and polished finishes like leather. Check out these elegant picks below:Â
1. Adidas Stan SmithÂ

Compared to other sneaker styles, a clean leather pair of white sneakers feel a bit more polished and understated—as long as you keep it in pristine condition, of course.Â
2. Lacoste Women's LT FIT SPORT Textile Sneakers
P5,650, available online
Trainers need not be reserved for the gym! This nude pair from Lacoste, for instance, would look sophisticated when coordinated with an all-neutral outfit. An added perk: It's lightweight, and it has a breathable textile upper. Take this pair with you when traveling!Â
3. Puma Suede Classic Blanket Stitch Sneakers

Almost like a combination of sneakers and espadrilles, this suede pair features a unique blanket stitching around its midsoles. Team it up with a printed midi dress for a chic, easy-breezy look.Â

This suede pair of New Balance sneakers come in an elegant dove gray color that's just as easy to style as your classic white kicks.Â
