‘Sneakerinas' are the latest divisive shoe trend after Bella Hadid was spotted in £100 pair
The latest controversial shoe trend to come out of 2025 is 'sneakerinas', a hybrid pair of shoes combining elements of both trainers and ballerina flats, and they've already got A-list fans
Over the past few years, we've had plenty of divisive shoe trends, from UGG's Mary-Jane shearling shoes to Maison Margiela's iconic Tabis and mesh ballet flats. And now 2025 presents the latest 'ugly' shoe trend - the 'sneakerina'.
As you can probably guess from the hybrid name, the sneakerina combines trainers (or sneakers as Americans call them) and ballerina flats. This sounds pretty harmless, considering the two shoes are already popular and not exactly conterversial. However, the result is something many people have mixed opinions about.
A-List celebs have, of course, already adopted this trend from Phoebe Dynevor to Bella Hadid, who was spotted wearing a reasonably affordable £119 pair from Vivaia.
£100 is on the pricier side, but considering where the trend started at the likes of Miu Miu and Louis Vuitton, Vivaia's Cristina Satin Sneakerinas are a bit more wallet-friendly. Not only is Bella a huge fan of Vivaia's pair, but so is Charli XCX, who was seen sporting two different pairs in the Coachella desert.

The Vivaia shoes have been crafted a smooth satin fabric like classic ballet shoes, but sit upon on a rubber sole like a trainer. The result? A sporty-looking ballet flat that perfectly combines feminine and athletic fashion.
As with all trends that start off on high fashion runways, they trickle down into the high street, and we've found a few more sneakerina styles you shop for less.
Cece Satin Ruched Bow Sneakers, Charles & Keith, available for £75 here
Not only are the sneakerinas a huge trend, but so are metallic shoes, so these silver satin sneakers from Charles & Keith combine both trends in one. If the silver isn't really your style, they are also available in a classic black colourway.
Speedcat Suede Ballet Shoes Women, Puma, available for £79.99 here
Dua Lipa posted an Instagram carousel sporting the Puma Speedcat Ballet Shoes, showing that she's given this controversial trend her seal of approval. Dua's exact metallic silver ones are currently out of stock, but we've found some suede pink ones from Puma that still perfectly fit into the trend.
Flavia Ballerina Sneakers, J W Pei, available for £100 here
Considering how popular the 'balletcore' aesthetic was last year, it's no surprise realyl to see this trainer trend take off. These baby pink ones from JW Pei add more a feminine touch to the sporty look, and we love them.

Heartbreaking Corrie scenes as Debbie confirms dementia diagnosis to loved ones
Debbie Webster (Sue Devaney) has been keeping a huge secret from (most of) her family recently in Coronation Street, after she was diagnosed with dementia. Proud, independent Debbie felt like she didn't want to burden her brother Kevin (Michael Le Vell) with the news, as he's already going through a tough time with cancer treatment. As for her relationship with Ronnie Bailey (Vinta Morgan), Debbie opted to dump him rather than tell him the truth. Debbie's split with Ronnie hasn't been easy for either of them, as they both love each other and had previously decided to get married. Ronnie has been left hurt and confused, while Debbie thinks he's already moved on as she's spotted him a few times in the company of Leanne Battersby (Jane Danson). So far the only person who knows about Debbie's diagnosis is her other brother, Carl (Jonathan Howard) – and he only found out by accident and has been sworn to secrecy by Debbie. But all that is about to change in an episode airing soon, where Debbie takes a sudden turn for the worse and is forced to open up to her family about what's really going on. Debbie and Bernie (Jane Hazlegrove) go to the Chariot Square bar for a few drinks to cheer Debbie up after she admits to Bernie that she's finding it hard to be in the same room as Ronnie. Also in the bar is Brody Michaelis (Ryan Mulvey), and when he causes a fuss by failing to produce ID when asked, Debbie loses it with him. We've seen Debbie becoming irrationally angry before and it's a symptom of her condition, and this time she really loses control and smashes Brody's glass on the bar. The next day Bernie is worried about Debbie because of her behaviour at the bar but also because she forgets to pay at the cafe. She's under pressure because there's been a flood at the hotel and she's facing having to cancel an awards ceremony, but Leanne offers to host the event at Speed Daal.

Bella Hadid channels Jessica Simpson's Daisy Duke as she showcases her legs in micro shorts
Bella Hadid showcased her model's legs as she went on a snack run in Aspen on Sunday. The runway beauty, 28, who seemed to joining a little downtime after working at Cannes and in London, stepped out in very short denim shorts, aka Daisy Dukes, similar to those worn by Jessica Simpson in The Dukes of Hazard two decades ago. Hadid had the good sense to wear something a little more comfortable than high heels favored by the fictional Daisy, and opted for a pair of brown sheepskin micro Uggs. She covered up in a white T-shirt and a red 'letterman' type jacket with white stripes. Her long, blonde hair was styled straight and she seemed to be wearing full makeup behind her large framed sunglasses. After gassing up her luxury SUV, the cover model took off for her next adventure in the tony mountain town favored by the rich and famous, especially for winter skiing. It was unclear if Hadid was enjoying a girls trip with friends, or a vacation with her boyfriend, Adan Banuelos. The fashionista has been dating the horse trainer, 37, since October 2023. In an interview with British Vogue that her boyfriend was unaware of her fame when they first met. 'For me, that was such a breath of fresh air,' the ___ revealed. The two met when she hired him to train her to work with cutting horses, a specialized style of riding that allows a rider to separate cattle from a herd in a controlled and skillful manner. 'He's the youngest Mexican cowboy to ever be inducted into the Hall of Fame, ' she bragged, hinting at a possible future. 'He works for his family, he works for his customers and he works to hopefully build a home and a family one day.' 'Our biggest dream is to have a summer camp for children,' she said of one of their goals. 'Being in a relationship – he works so much, I work so much – we come together to have these conversations,' she said. 'He knows my passion is philanthropy. I think that's where I struggle being in this world of so much stimulation. I always feel overstimulated and I wish I could just be somewhere helping everybody,' she said. She covered up in a white T-shirt and a red 'letterman' type jacket with white stripes. Her long, blonde hair was styled straight and she seemed to be wearing full makeup behind her sunglasses Hadid has been outspoken in her support for the Palestinian people in the ongoing conflict with Israel that has killed more than 54,000 men, women and children since October 7, 2023. 'I think I would wake up in the morning feeling better every day if I could wake up for somebody else, and not for something that meant that I was in a photograph or for me to make more money. I wish I could just be somebody for somebody else,' she explained. Another of Hadid's goals is motherhood. 'I can't wait to be a mom. I think that I'm somebody for a lot of people, but in the real intimate way of being the person that somebody can count on consistently, that will change my life for me. And I cannot wait.'
