Take a Twist on Tomboy Style with Pink Sneakers

To be a tomboy is to be one who blurs the gender lines. You wear things your own way, regardless of norms. A girly girl you are not, so you avoid the color pink altogether—but you don’t have to.

Although ruffled and frilly frocks don’t have a place in your wardrobe, don’t let your tomboy tendencies stop you from wearing a color that’s often associated with all things feminine. Integrate it into your outfits with something that already speaks to your sporty style: a pair of sneakers.

Crop Top + Joggers

What others deem a sports bra, you see as a tight-fitting crop top that juxtaposes the laxed fit of your bottoms. Up top, you’re showing off your shape, while your joggers do anything but cling to your curves. Add an extra slimming effect to your ensemble with a pair of pink trainers. Pick one with a streamlined silhouette that will help you pick up the pace of your style, even when you’re standing still.

Button-Down + Denim Cut-Offs

If someone walked into your closet right now, they’d probably confuse it to be that of your brother’s or boyfriend’s. Borrowed-from-the-boys pieces take up a lot of hanger space, with crisp button-down shirts being your go-to. Tuck your favorite loose one into a pair of denim shorts, and since you’re inclined to own both of those pieces in their classic states, use pink sneakers to add a pop of color. Plus, they’ll draw more attention to your long legs.

Oversized Sweater + Boyfriend Jeans

You dress with one motto: Baggy is better. If a sweater looks large on the sales floor, you already know it’s the perfect match for your boyfriend jeans. Pink sneakers bring a touch of femininity to an outfit that’s lacking it, but because of their sporty nature, the color is unexpected.

The color pink isn’t reserved for those who are ultra feminine. It’s possible to make it work for you.

Normally, you don’t think pink, but these sneakers will make you think again.
