19 Reasons Karlie Kloss Is Our Street Style Icon For Life

Supermodel Karlie Kloss has yet to meet a pair of sneakers she doesn't like. She's worn the functional footwear in just about every style on the market, from Yeezy high-tops to designer trainers. But Karlie's not just rocking her flats with leggings and a parka on the street. She considers them for red carpet events just as she would a pair of heels, confirming that sneakers are appropriate for any event. You could shrug us off: "Psh, she's a model standing tall at 6'1. No wonder sneakers don't make her legs look stumpy."

Karlie, who made Time's 100 Most Influential People list in 2016 as an icon, knows just which dresses call for low-tops and just the right pant silhouette to pair with platforms. Read on for a few styling hacks straight from Ms. Kloss. We could all benefit from a few of these tips during this feel-good time of the year.
