Gladiators Are Back and Sneakers Are Here to Stay: A Look at Spring's Two Hottest Shoes
As told in GIFs.
Gladiators: It seems like only yesterday Carrie Bradshaw donned a pair of gladiators on her wedding day. Actually, that was 2008, but the "contender" craze is back with a vengeance. Whether you prefer flats or a heel, at the ankle or up to the knee, these three pairs will inspire you to lace up before you step out.

White Sneakers: Let's face it: Comfortable footwear will always be on trend. But this season, nothing feels so fresh and so clean as a pair of white-as-snow sneaks. (We're talking high top, low top, and everything in between.) Plus, there's no need to relegate them to the tennis court; wear slip-ons with a sundress or stomp around town in printed trousers paired with white kicks.
