Sneaker moments worth calling out

Coaches’ style became part of the March Madness conversation this year—Vogue even singled out Staley’s Chanel/LV mix as the “comfort + luxury” blueprint. Vogue


How to Get the Look (simple, wearable picks)

You don’t need runway prices to copy the vibe. Start with one strong piece and build around it.

Quick styling notes

  • Keep one “loud” piece (the blazer or jacket). Let the rest be quiet.

  • Sneakers matter. A clean pair lifts the whole fit—even with joggers.

  • If the top is oversized, go fitted on the bottom (or flip it). Balance wins.
