    I've never done it with a dress, but a nice (not beat to hell) pair of chucks does look cute with a little flippy skirt... and is so much more comfortable than wearing shorts... or cute sandals!

    I'm an old lady....and sneakers (or athletic shoes) with skirts and dresses are amazing! Comfortable, versatile, and protective of your feet. Dress it up. Play with it. Make the shoes the center of what you're wearing! Dynamite!
