Dance Shoes / Sneakers
I have various types of dance shoes for different occasions.  Some of my shoes look like regular street shoes, while other look like ballroom shoes.  The pair that I wear most frequently are Dance Sneakers by Sansha.  These are perfect for jeans but look horrible if worn with shorts or skirts.
