Helping women love what they wear on a budget

4 Ways to Wear Black Slip-On Sneakers

September 19, 2017 by Katie Haller

Thrifty Wife, Happy Life || 4 ways to wear black slip on shoes for fall
If you follow me on Instagram, you may have noticed these black slip-on shoes that I’ve been wearing lately.  They were my first purchase from my fall wish list, and I’m just loving how practical they are for fall.  I was originally eyeing the Steve Madden pair of black slip-on shoes (here), but they were almost $60 and I knew I wasn’t going to spend that much.  Luckily, Target does a great job of making knock off styles.  I found these almost identical slip-on shoes (here) at Target for only $25, less than haft the price of the Steve Madden shoes.

Today, I want to share 4 fall looks wearing my new black slip-on sneakers.  They can be worn with almost anything, but for today’s looks I styled them all with 4 different pairs of pants; white jeans, black jeggings, jeans, and leggings.  All four of these looks are perfect for me to wear to work, or wear on the weekends.  They are very casual and very mom-friendly!

    They look really great! I am thinking of getting some in either olive or blush pink for the fall!

    You should! I was debating between the blush and black. I went with black because my shoes get so dirty easily. I do love the olive too!

    Lol, I was doing the same thing. I finally just decided to buy them. I figured that they are way less than the Steve Maddens.

I don’t share my husband much on here, but this I don’t share my husband much on here, but this trend felt like a fun way to look back at our story! I had to dig deep on Facebook for some of these photos! 💕

He was the one who told me that shopping wasn’t a hobby and I needed to find a free hobby to keep me busy when we were first married. 😅 So I started a blog about living life to the fullest and dressing my best on a super tight budget.

Little did we know that “free hobby” would not only one day turn into my job, but it would also be a way to fund my shopping habit. Even helping me become a smarter shopper along the way! 😉

Fun fact: The name “Thrifty Wife, Happy Life” came from him. When making big decisions, Kevin always said “happy wife happy life”. So when I was brainstorming a name for my blog that popped into my head and I decided to do a little play on words. The original name I was going to pick was “Katie’s Closet”. I’m glad I went with the name I did!
