A COLOURFUL SNEAKER IS A MUSTHAVE. WHEN PAIRED WITH A BASIC WHITE TEE AND BLUE JEANS, SUCH A SNEAKER MAKES FOR AN EFFORTLESS­CHIC LOOK. COLOURS RED, BLUE AND WINE ARE AMONG THE TOP PICKS

The first day at college is probably one of the most important days in a student’s life. To make sure you look your best, just like your clothes, invest time on shopping for the right footwear, too. Here are some trends that can make a lasting impression:

Leather lace-ups: If you’re looking for a pair of shoes that are classic, yet will help you stand out from the pack, then opt for a pair of Bucks or Chukkas. Just as comfortabl­e as sneakers, they straddle the line between casual and formal. White sneakers with little details: A great pair of white sneakers is a musthave. You can wear them with anything. From minimalist and retro to high fashion, these sneakers work well with most looks. Slip-ons: Pairs of these footwears are the hallmarks of easy-going, sporty and comfortabl­e style. They’re simple, and easy to take on and off. And, they make your look sharp. A great pair of slip-ons transition­s well from summer into winter. From perforated white to woven leather, there is huge variety to choose from. Camo look: A pair of highankle sneakers in camo print is also quite in vogue. Pair them with a leather biker jacket and a pair of jeans for a sporty chic look.

A colourful basic: Slide on a colourful sneaker and pair it with a basic white tee and blue denims. Colours such as red, blue and wine are a huge hit.

Athletic kicks: Lace-up sneakers with stripes in suede leather are among the must-haves this season.
