Emmy Rossum in Nike High-Top Sneakers

EDIT: Thanks to Kurt for ID’ing Emmy Rossum’s sneakers as the Nike Blazer Mids!

*****************

The usually prim, proper and preppy Emmy Rossum has been spotted in less than girly duds recently. Of course Emmy was coming home from the gym at the time these pictures were taken, but these are nevertheless different from how Emmy Rossum usually dresses. I mean, the girl walks her dog in silver lamé shorts and high heels fer chrissakes. So even though this is regular gymwear, keep in mind that this is Emmy Rossum we’re talking about and this must be her idea of “dressing like a slob”:

Wait, let me take that back: Emmy Rossum would probably never consider dressing like a slob and “dressing down” probably isn’t even part of her vocabulary. I mean, her high top sneakers? She would wear them to the gym while I would wear them everywhere BUT the gym. They’re too good-looking a pair of high top sneakers to wear just to get sweaty and dirty! Just look at them:

I’m no sneaker fanatic but even I know that these are gorgeous. Too gorgeous in fact to just wear to the gym.

These cool high top sneakers with a retro vibe are the Nike Sweet Classic High High Top Sneakers. Although these aren’t exactly Emmy Rossum’s sneakers (hers are the Nike Blazer Mids), these are the closest color I could find to Emmy’s black and metallic silver ones.

These Nike sneakers are currently on sale at Zappos – $61.20 down from $68.00. There are at least eight other colors available, all with varying prices (but nothing over $68.00). If you want the most retro-looking one, check out this black, red and blue color combo:

Do you think sneakers like these deserve more than to be just used in the gym?
