L IS FOR LOIS x FOOT LOCKER: HOW TO STYLE A SNEAKER 4 WAYS

puma footlocker lois opoku
Every year the same old story: Foot Locker's Week of Greatness. It's a become a tradition here on the blog and I never get tired of it. Foot Locker releases a crazy bunch of super cool sneakers and I get to highlight my favorite here on the blog. This time I chose the Puma Fierce that I styled up in four completely different ways. Can we just take a minute to acknowledge the fact that Puma has made a major comeback this year? Ever since Rihanna took over it's been going uphill. Well played Puma, well played. Of course Foot Locker released a few new Pumas (like the Puma Fierce I'm wearing) during Week of Greatness, along with some sick Jordans and Adidas NMDs, some in exclusive colour ways to Foot Locker.
In honour of Week of Greatness I decided to show you 4 different ways I'd rock sneakers. Here is my week in sneakers lookbook. Friday's we wear high heels to party :P
If you know me, you know I hardly ever wear heels IRL. Nothing goes over the comfort of a sneaker..
But keep reading to see the looks! :D

LOOK 1 - Casual Candid

Coat I Mantel: THANKS TO Forever21 (exactoption 2love this chic version!)
Bag I Tasche: Hallhuber THANKS TO Otto
Trousers I Hose: Zara (exact style and colorsimiliar, look for less)
T-Shirt: Weekday
Glasses I Brille: Zara (same same)
Shoes I Schuhe: Puma THANKS TO Foot Locker (black version on sale, arrives before xmas!)

Casual, easy - an everyday go-to look. The simplest way to style sneakers: jeans, tee, jacket (preferably leather) and of course your fav sneaks. Changed it up a bit and went with a classic camel coat and leather pants. I kept this look pretty monochrome and added a little twist: my blue Puma Fierce Quilted in peacoat-puma white. Also my specs add some IQ points.
Call me Einstein. *hair flip emoji*



LOOK 2 - Pop of ColorLois Opoku Foot locker week of greatness puma sneaker street style lisforlois

Dress I Kleid: Bruno Banani THANKS TO Otto (exact, similiar same bright color)
Bag I Tasche: Proenza Schouler
Pullover: H&M Trend (same same)
Sunnies I Sonnenbrille: THANKS TO Stella&Dot (this version is on sale)
Skirt I Rock: Newlook (similiar for under 10€!)
Shoes I Schuhe: Puma THANKS TO Foot Locker (black version on salearrives before xmas!)

Not all sneaker looks have to be all black everything (*eye roll*). Going against the stigma, I decided to go full on color with my bright blue Bruno Banani coat which happened to match my new Proenza Schouler PS1. Can we just take a moment to appreciate its first appearance on my blog? *excitement*
Also that alliteration was fierce. Puma.
Geez my word play game is ballin tonight..White Iverson.
Ok I'm black. But so when does my text appear on rapgenius?




LOOK 3 - BerlinerLois Opoku Foot locker week of greatness puma sneaker street style lisforlois Lois Opoku Foot locker week of greatness puma sneaker street style lisforlois
Trechcoat: Escada (stolen from Tara, 50% on sale)
Glasses I Brille: Zara (same same)
Bag I Tasche: Primark (stolen from Tarasame!)
Trousers I Hose: Levis 501 ct THANKS TO Levis
T-Shirt: H&M (similiar)
Shoes I Schuhe: Puma THANKS TO Foot Locker (black version on salearrives before xmas!)

Don't know why exactly I decided to call this Look Berliner, but it's probably due to the fact that the backdrop and pretty much everything about this feels so Berlin. (Or simply the fact that I needed to pull a name for each look out of my ass.) It's just a big mashup of pieces thrown together wildly that seem to not fit a first, yet go together so well that make it what it is. This is the epitome of Berlin, Berlin and its cultures. 


LOOK 4 - Aztec HippieLois Opoku Foot locker week of greatness puma sneaker street style lisforlois Lois Opoku Foot locker week of greatness puma sneaker street style lisforlois
ph.: Tara
Dress I Kleid: Mango (same with sleeves,
Cardigan: H&M (stolen from Tara, similiar, version 2)
bum bag I Bauchtasche: New Look
Earrings I Ohrringe: Finery London
Shoes I Schuhe: Puma THANKS TO Foot Locker (black version on salearrives before xmas!)


For the last look I decided to go a little experimental. And I think it's one of my favorite! This is something I'd definetly wear to fashion week too. But paired with a killer handbag (Miu Miu) and eye catching sunglasses (Fendi)! So now I've shown you 4 different ways I'd rock sneakers, I hope I could inspire you. Also I'd like to add I never give much thought to what I wear, I don't actually plan my outfits rigorously.

What's your fav way to wear sneakers?

Love Lois xxx
