If there's one type of footwear you can *never* go wrong in purchasing, it would have to be sneakers. Aside from being comfy as hell, they come in a variety of different silhouettes, colors, and styles—there's definitely a pair out there for everyone.
One brand that's been everywhere recently is New Balance. It's been around forever—since 1906, in case you were curious—but it's been enjoying a boom in popularity, thanks to the "dad sneaker"-type of shoes being cool and trendy again. New Balance's shoes also come in a wide variety of styles, from chunky silhouettes to more sleek and streamlined options. Plus, most of its kicks come in neutral colorways, so they're a guaranteed classic and they will always be in style. You can wear them anytime and with anything, which means you'll eventually earn back the money you paid for them. (Hello, cost per wear and girl math, LOL).

2. New Balance 550
Fun fact: This shoe has been around since 1989. After its initial run, it was stowed away in NB's archives before getting limited edition releases in 2020. A year later, it returned to the full-time lineup, and we can definitely see why. Its low-top, streamlined silhouette makes it the perfect shoe for all your ~casual~ 'fits. P.S. Taylor Swift owns a pair, so do what you will with that info. ;)
