It started with Rita Ora last September, then we spotted Katherine McPhee trying the look, and now we’re seeing two more celebrities pull the same getup. We’re talking about the pairing of girly girl dresses with chunky sporty (albeit glam) sneaks for event appearances.

Besides the American Idol runner-up, we also saw the ‘Hart of Dixie’ star, Jaime King, sport a similar look while attending the launch of Miss Wu (Jason Wu‘s more accessible line) last weekend. She wore metallic gold flatform Chanel Cruise 2013 sneakers with a Jason Wu floral dress.
Fast forward to last Wednesday at the 39th Annual People’s Choice Awards, we spotted young star Kathryn Newton sport the exact same pair of gold flatform Chanel sneakers that Jamie wore with a white ultra prim frock.

What do you think, ladies? How do you like the mix? Is this a trend worth following? Would you take a cue and cap off your dress with sporty gold flatform sneakers?
If that’s a yes, then get the look by grabbing these studded but glam sneakers from Steve Madden. Match a pair with a flirty floral number, and you’re all set!
