I was scrolling through my footwear-only Pinterest board recently (as one does) and noticed Dakota Johnson's sneaker collection dominates my pins. From Adidas to Nike and every trendy sneaker in between, her expansive shoe rack has become the blueprint for my subconscious sneakerhead.
Jennifer Lawrence has been my sneaker collection muse for years. But on set for her matchmaker dramedy last summer, Johnson's equally-enviable rotation was the highlight of each Materialists outfit I saw. In between takes, the leading lady strolled through New York (and onto my Pinterest board) in various It-trainers, including the famed Adidas Sambas sneakers. A few scenes later, the sneakers du jour were replaced by a chunkier counterpart: the Nike Cortez, complete with wide toes and crease-resistant uppers. Her matchmaker character, Lucy, even gave Converse Chuck Taylors a go alongside a floral Reformation dress.
