KYLIE JENNER

Kylie and Tyga walk the streets of NYC — Pap Nation / Splash News Online

The star has said she wears sky-high heels or sneakers -- there's no in betwen. And when she wears sneakers, she goes oh-so-low key, in a denim skirt and vintage tee.

DAKOTA FANNING

One of the many wonderful things about white sneakers: They're perfect for air travel, because they're easy to slip off and hide no-show socks that ensure your feet will never touch the grungy airport floor.

JESSICA ALBA

You can't emulate all celebrity airport outfits (why are they always wearing heels?!) but Jessica's cute-but-comfy lace-ups, graphic tee and lightweight joggers is super easy to pull off.

TAYLOR SWIFT

The star accents her Tularosa denim overall skirt with a Marni bag and floral Gucci sneakers. You know. Casual.

OLIVIA HOLT

White shoes are the perfect finishing touch for a flirty/sporty striped mini as seen on the star.

12 of 50

KARLIE KLOSS

Not that you needed more proof that these shoes go with every outfit under the sun, but we'd say Karlie's sequin and sheer midi really underscores the point.

13 of 50

KATIE HOLMES

The great thing about white shoes? They work with any color. A summery, bold sundress like Katie's is beachy and fun -- ideal for a boardwalk stroll.

KYLIE JENNER

Celebrity Sightings In Los Angeles - July 13, 2016 — starzfly/Bauer-Griffin/GC Images

Though black and white are the most obvious neutrals with which to pair your sneakers, wardrobe basics in rusty hues à la Kylie (who's in Puma) are an unexpectedly cool take.

15 of 50

KATE UPTON

Worried the trend won't last until fall? The model shows just how seasonless the look is with her jeans and slightly unstructured blazer.

16 of 50

SHARON STONE

The 58-year-old shows this trend is fresh at any age by wearing hers with a breezy dress and fedora.

Leave it to one half of "Two Dope Queens" to put together one dope outfit: Her print shirtdress and oversized denim jacket are the perfect flirty pairing with her white sneakers.

GIGI HADID

If there's one thing Gigi loves as much as personalized clothing, it's white sneakers.

KENDALL JENNER

Gigi, Kendall & Hailey Out For Dinner In NYC — FameFlynet

Lampshading (the art of wearing a shirt with no pants) is a very advanced move, but if you're ready for the challenge, you don't get more "model off duty" than a Daniel Patrick camo shirt, tomboyish denim jacket, half bun and white Kenneth Cole sneakers.

20 of 50

TAYLOR SWIFT

In her Cotton On shorteralls and crisp white kicks, Taylor's giving us major "first day of camp" vibes.

21 of 50

DAKOTA FANNING

A longer hemline can be a little trickier with a chunky shoe, but the sleek cut (and coordinating stripes from the sneaks to the skirt) help Dakota pull this off effortlessly.

CHRISTIE BRINKLEY

A subtle print (like the shimmery stars on Christie's shoes) is a fun way to spice up a very simple shape.

HAILEY BALDWIN

Ironically, everything Hailey's wearing can be worked out in except for those pristine white kicks.

EMMA ROBERTS

How Emma does double denim a little differently: By buttoning up her Mother Denim jacket, picking a pair of AC x AG jeans with patches and frays, and choosing a pair of white sneakers with a distinctive twist. Her Easy Spirits are personalized by artist Shantell Martin, but you could get a similar vibe with a Sharpie.

25 of 50

KARLIE KLOSS

The star repurposes a pair of floral Stella McCartney suit pants with a classic linen jacket and Jimmy Choo bag for a decidedly "uptown lunch" vibe, then grounds the whole thing with her white sneakers.

26 of 50

DIANE KRUGER

What to wear your white sneakers with? Anything you'd wear black flats or sandals with! They're a natural fit for Diane's breezy black midi and celeb-fave personalized Madewell jacket.

27 of 50

RITA ORA

They also look incredibly cool as a substitute for a strappy heel – as seen on Rita, who pairs hers with a lamé gown and leather jacket.

28 of 50

DAKOTA FANNING

The sporty vibe of Dakota's Mother Denim skirt, quilted bookbag and zip-up jacket is a natural fit for a lace-up kick.

29 of 50

SHAY MITCHELL

A chunkier, more athletic white sneaker doesn't work with dresses as well as its more low-cut, slip-on style counterpart, but it does give a fresh look to the classic jeans-and-moto-jacket look.

30 of 50

GABRIELLE UNION

White sneakers aren't just for 6-ft. models in super-skinny jeans. Gabrielle uses her Soludos pair as the perfect tomboyish punctuation to her black-and-white look, featuring a cropped sweater, feminine striped Forever 21 skirt and Madewell crossbody.

31 of 50

JESSICA ALBA

Ground a pair of slightly-out there printed pants with some classic white sneakers and a cozy, drapey top.

32 of 50

VICTORIA BECKHAM

Victoria picked the perfect time to retire her heels: Wearing sneakers with dressy outfits has never been cooler.

33 of 50

SELENA GOMEZ

Just how versatile are crisp white kicks? Selena later wore this exact same outfit with strappy stilettos.

34 of 50

OLIVIA MUNN

The pony and peacoat add to the sporty vibe of Olivia's three-stripe Adidas sneakers, while the pink lip makes the whole look pop.

35 of 50

GIGI HADID

With her bestie Kendall Jenner, Gigi may be singlehandedly responsible for making white sneakers happen. She may wear a variety of brands (from left, she's wearing Yeezys, People Footwear, Stan Smiths and high-tops) but some things stay consistent: She likes to play up their cool-girl vibe with cropped jeans, cool jackets and loose locks.

36 of 50

KENDALL JENNER

Whereas Gigi likes to stick with a uniform, Kendall is all about taking risks when it comes to dressing up her white sneakers. But like her BFF (best fashion friend), Kendall likes a variety of styles, from the classic Stan Smiths to a velcro Kenneth Cole pair.

37 of 50

OLIVIA WILDE

The star is a Converse loyalist, and it's easy to see why: The style is in sync with her favorite outfit (jeans, a striped tee and moto jacket).

38 of 50

CHARLIZE THERON

Newcomers to the trend can take a cue from Charlize and treat the shoe as a bright base for a neutral ensemble (with an added bonus: They're comfy for travel).

39 of 50

REESE WITHERSPOON

Look for chic moms in the carpool line to be wearing some variation of Reese's look: A pretty floral windbreaker (hers is Draper James, of course) and crisp white tennies.

40 of 50

MILEY CYRUS

Converse's classic Chuck Taylors got their start on a basketball court, which explains why Miley's kicks look so natural with her sports-fan ensemble.

41 of 50

OLIVIA CULPO

The style somehow works with a chic coat and structured bag as well – meaning that your new favorite commuter shoe is finally here.

42 of 50

JAMIE CHUNG

The street style star takes the term "kicks" literally in her high-top Keds … and shows how cool they can look with leather pants and red lips.

43 of 50

GWYNETH PALTROW

Goop keeps it simple with her skincare and her wardrobe, providing a uniform anyone can emulate with her gray turtleneck, white tennies and bright blue bag.

44 of 50

BELLA HADID

The supermodel sneaker of choice (that would be the Adidas Stan Smiths) is the only logical shoe to wear with an exactly-matched sporty sheath dress.

45 of 50

JESSICA BIEL

Mrs. Justin Timberlake is guaranteed to have cool shoes – as well as to show how well they work in an outfit that can be dressed up with pumps or worn with pointy-toe flats as well.

46 of 50

BELLA THORNE

Regular sneakers can't even be worn with actual athletic gear anymore – for an au courant athleisure look, white kicks are the only way to go.

47 of 50

KARLIE KLOSS

An über-quirky Anya Hindmarch coat benefits from a very basic outfit underneath – which is where her Wolford bodysuit and trusty white sneaks come in.

48 of 50

ALESSANDRA AMBROSIO

Like a big scarf or an eye-catching bag, bright white sneakers (hers are Pedro Garcia) are a detail that makes even the most casual outfit look more considered.

49 of 50

MIRANDA KERR

Can't get more basic than a white tee, jeans (hers are Mother) and white sneakers, right? But Miranda makes the world's easiest outfit instantly elevated with a chic Max Mara coat.
