How do you wear your Converse ?

Those of you who have been knocking about on my blog for a while will know that I love Converse. I find them really comfy and they go with almost everything. I do find that I wear them a little too often but sometimes there is nothing better when you are going for a long walk to slip into your favourite pair of Converse and know they will keep your feet comfy (unless it’s raining) and go nicely with your dress.

I usually go for the low or high top thick sole styles, I have quite a few pairs and really think they are worth the money. I had a trusty pair of white ones which I got near the start of university, the lasted me untill a few months back (when they were no long white) when I had to get rid of them because they looked very tatty and not even suitable for long walks through the mud. I will most likely get myself another white pair after Christmas. I was thinking of buying some before but as the rain has started to fall here in the UK I don’t think it would be so wise. I have got my eyes on a few pairs which I think may be ok to buy before Christmas (during winter) as they look very cosy and maybe even waterproof. One pair looks like it may shield the water from your socks anyway, the other two…maybe less so.

I am not really a fan of the thin sole style, they just don’t look like they would last very long and they don’t look too comfy to me. I am tempted by some of the new (new to me anyway) styles and colours they have at the moment.

I hadn’t seen the colour of theΒ All Star Seasonal HI KakiΒ before, but I really like them because they make me think of Prettygreentea. I think these ones are more likely to be better in the summer and would look fab with a pretty dress. I think wearing Converse with a pretty dress is my thing, too often maybe.

I spotted theseΒ All Star European Leather HI TanΒ Converse, these ones look really cosy and maybe even waterproof… who knows ?! I would sure like to find out, they look perfect for winter and I really like the colour of them, I would at least be able to get away with wearing black tights with them or maybe a lightΒ burgundyΒ pair. I wish I had a pair of burgundy tights to link you too but I am yet to find some I really like. I will be keeping my eye out for some though and will make sure I let you know if I find any.
Β I also really like the look of theΒ Converse Star Player Suede Shearling, they look very warm and cosy. If I get these I would pull on a pair of warm grey tights like these ones fromΒ Fat FaceΒ (I am actually thinking of getting for my Austria trip) and find a pretty red dress to go with them. I think they look like a really nice shade of brown and the fur lining is sure to be warm and cosy. I doubt they would be very good in the rain but maybe I am wrong.Β Β

    i’ve only got one pair i wear atm, but i wear them a lot. i have the low beige classic ones. had them for a bout a year, they go well with my style and don’t make me feel too young. i do have some black hi tops ive had since i was 16, 10 years on and i just can’t get rid of them. i wear them much tighter than yours with massive bows.

    the leather ones are a really good option i reckon, i did have some white leather ones and they were good in the rain. if i gets much colder i’ll retire them for the year

    For as long as I can remember I’ve always had a black pair of low-tops but they only last me a year until I have to replace them as I wear them so much I wear a hole through the sole/back. ><
    I also have a pair of gray low tops, black hi-tops and suede shearling hi-tops.
    I really want a pair of x hi-top with either a different colour on the inside that you can fold down or the shearling inside ‘coz they look super cozy.
    I’ve been wearing a lot of extra skinny jeans lately though and I find that if I wear converse with them I look like I’m wearing clown shoes πŸ˜‰

    I’m obsessed with my red converse low tops. I always wear them with my skinny jeans but I should try pairing them with a cute dress, like your suggestion. They’re like my super hero shoes. They make me feel like I can go out and conquer! Haha πŸ˜‰

    I don’t like those thin sole style ones either, I think they look uglyyyy. I have two pairs of Converse – purple ones and ones with Batman print. I used to have green ones but I had to leave them overseas because my suitcase didn’t have enough room πŸ™ wahhh.

    I have to admit, I’ve never owned a pair! Back in the day I was always more of a Dunlop and Babysham kind of girl as they always seemed to make my feet look really long… I may have to give them another try!
    Lovely photographs by the way πŸ™‚
