How to wear sneakers at work and get away with it

As you guys already know, my middle name should be comfy. Ever since I realized that you could upgrade a comfortable piece, my life changed forever and I never went back to uncomfortable outfits- unless is a cute pair of shoes then I may consider it.

I work in the creative field so dressing up is really not a requirement but now that I work at Target HQ, I have noticed that some people here dress really cool, so I thought to myself “ok, I need to step it up” but again I LOVE being comfortable. My other “issue” is that my commute is so short that I walk, and I do not like to have several pairs of shoes with me, so the shoes I put at home are the ones I’m keeping on the entire day. That it’s why it’s important to me to have a comfy pair of shoes.

I go this super cute pair of sneakers from K-Swiss to put together a look that was great to be at the office but that I also felt comfortable in. I never really imagined that sneakers could also be dressed up, but I wanted to experiment and see how far I could take it. I am no risk taker, unfortunately, but I like to play dress up. 

I really loved this combo of sneakers, pencil skirt and a graphic tee. Tees are a must in my wardrobe and I literally use one ever day but I like to style it up differently.
