Converse, chucks... whatever you call em, they're a great shoe. When a pop of color is necessary (like today-- I'm in blah gray pants and a blah black sweater, and VOILA, my red converse!) these do the trick. They are not warm and they have no arch support, but if those things aren't a problem, get yourself a pair of these. They're fun. And they're $45.
europeans are obsessed with these. in austria, i had the following conversation with my friend eva.
ReplyDeleteeva: so, how many chucks do you have?
me: what?
eva: how many chucks?
me: huh?
eva: chucks....converse..how many?
me: how many pairs do i have? oh, um...i used to have a pair in high school.
eva: oh, i have 4 pair. erika has 4 pair and ivana has 3. you really need to get a pair....
yup, i guess i "really need to get a pair". i like the leopard ones, to be quite honest. especially the high-tops. bonus - they are much cheaper in america!
Converse are one of my favorite things too! I've lost count on how many pairs I have and colors & styles. OBSESSED, really. :)
ReplyDeleteI have teal ones. They're. Amazing. Also, you can sometimes find them for cheap-o at Marshall's or TJ Maxx. I'm talking 20 bean-os. Oh yeah.
ReplyDeletelove those!
ReplyDeletei agree! and they last forever. they're best really worn in, barely there canvas. and so many fun colors. and they make skipping really easy!
ReplyDeletei definitely have four pairs. they're the best! xo.
ReplyDeletei've had a pair of pink chucks for years and they are still like new! i love mine.
ReplyDeleteI love Converse so much! I have 3 pairs I think..you're so right; they add the perfect pop of color to outfits and are totally comfortable!

I love converse though, they are classic! I have similar one but they are perry shoes and they very cute.
ReplyDeletemy pair finally bit the dust and i'm dying for a new pair!
ReplyDeletedefinitely on my wish list :)
ReplyDeleteConverse are everywhere in Peru! I never knew they came in sooo many colors.
ReplyDeleteTeehee, I read "voila" as "Viola" at first and I was like, "Why would she name her shoes? And Viola of all things?"
