Our Favorite New Sneakers From Vans

. . .

(courtesy of Vans)This morning we got an inside look at the Vans holiday 2012 and spring 2013 collections. Here are a few of the standout kicks from both seasons, all of which will be priced between $45 and $65.

1. Sparkles galore: For some holiday shimmer and shine, Vans went with silver sequins. Yes, that's right—sequined Vans!

2. Tribal Print: Who doesn't love a cool, low-key tribal print? Whether they dominated the entire sneaker (spring styles) or were only accents (for holiday), the tribal blanket print looks like it's here to stay.

3. Earthy Neutrals: For holiday, Vans is introducing a new "slim fit" bootie in earthy neutrals—and they're specifically designed for women. We loved the narrower silhouette, and we also loved the bordeaux and blush color palette.

4. Stars: Our absolute favorites from Vans' spring 2013 collection are denim and white stars! It isn't too early to plan for next year's Fourth of July, right?

5. Splatter Paint: Here's a men's style that can easily be adapted for women. We predict these sneaks making major appearances at music festivals next year.

And here's one last look from today—baby sneakers! All together now: awwwwww.
