Coastal Simplicity, On Purpose
This summer, I’m building outfits that reflect how I want to feel: relaxed, pulled together, and ready for anything. And since most days involve a lot of walking (and weather that can shift in a second), comfort and versatility are non-negotiables.
That’s why I’ve been living in these adidas white sneakers. They’re clean, timeless, and work with just about everything in my suitcase—from cotton sundresses to oversized linen shirts. Plus, they’re perfect for those long days exploring coastal towns or catching a ferry with sand still on your feet.
3 Outfits for Real New England Days
1. Strolling Nantucket’s Main Street
👟 White tee, high-waisted denim shorts, oversized straw tote, and white adidas sneakers. Toss on a lightweight cardigan for the breeze and you’re set.
2. Lobster Roll + Lighthouse Day Trip
🌊 Breezy striped button-down, linen pants, baseball cap, and those same sneakers. It’s easy, comfy, and perfect for both casual lunch spots and lighthouse selfies.
3. Cloudy Morning Coffee Run
☕ Soft joggers, cropped tank, oversized denim jacket, and a pair of tennis shoes. You can walk miles in these and still look cute for spontaneous coastal photos.
Why White Sneakers Just Work Here
New England style has always leaned classic—and that’s exactly why a pair of shoes like these are the unsung heroes of summer here. They’re the kind of staple that blends seamlessly into a wardrobe full of cotton, linen, and denim. I love how these adidas styles elevate the casual without trying too hard.
They’re perfect for:
- Cape Cod boardwalks
- Ferry rides and rainy mornings
- Ice cream runs on cobblestone streets
- Exploring towns like Rockport or Newport
If you’re headed north this summer—or just want to dress like you are—build your wardrobe around the lifestyle: easy layers, soft neutrals, and a sneaker that keeps up with it all.
They are my most-worn shoe this season, and somehow still look brand new (even after chasing seagulls and toddlers).
Here’s to a simple, classic style that works wherever summer takes you.
