    I have probably bought more than 10 pairs in my earlier years and used to be my number one favourites!
    They are all time cool and all the recent come back made full of designs and colours and…
    I might be getting some again ๐Ÿ™‚
    But they look perfect on girls!
    xoxoxo

    WOnderful!! I lvoe converse especially in these last years that they are making collaboration with Missoni and Givenchy, for example. I thinkt hat these brand is one of the most cool “sporty-chic brands”, it would be so funny to wear converse on the day of the marriage!

  5. Mei says:

    :o!! You should totally buy and wear Converse!
    I have a gray oldskool looking ones and wedges.
    Don’t forget the Vans collection they match with almost everything!

    I don’t think it’s a good thing to wear it on yor wedding alltho it reminds me of the movie ‘A Cinderella Story’ with Hilary Duff, she wore pink Converse underneath her princess gown ๐Ÿ˜›
    It does makes a bit originall and fun don’t you think?

    I love this post. You sure know how to prove your point through text and images.
    I don t own a pair of Converse.I always said I ll buy one in white, but I just, didn t.
    Don t know why.I guess I don t see myself wearing them.
    But these ladies rock them!Great outfits!
    Have a great weekend, honey!

  7. I love wearing my Converse! I wouldn’t want to wear it to my wedding though lol.

  8. everyone loves converse ๐Ÿ™‚
    they are just so versatile!! x

  9. Clara says:

    lovely! lovely! lovely!

  10. classiq says:

    I don’t really know how to work the Converse shoes. It can’t be an outfit too casual, but I wouldn’t wear them with a skirt or dress either. I think I’ll go for flared jeans and a nice top. Did you like Kate’s McQueen dress? I really did, she looked lovely in it. Have a beautiful weekend, Shin! xoxo

  11. Biaa says:

    I own two pairs. The first, is like the ones you’ve posted here, but in a red plaid. I bought them a few years ago and never wore them because I felt like they made my feet look abnormal haha. Last year I bought a pair of all black hi-tops and I love them! They are definite go-to shoes for a casual day in cool temperatures ๐Ÿ™‚

  12. J’adr My Converse!

    per your usual, Shin, an imaginatively, lovely post! ๐Ÿ™‚

    well, i don’t presently have a pair of “cons,” but these do remind me of “olskool ones” worn in youth. perhaps, it’s time to invest in a pair of the now available more “colourful, cool, rad styles.” ๐Ÿ™‚

    and, somehow, i could imagine wearing weddingingly, not necessarily at ceremony itself, but changing into them prior to reception, ya know; all to be able be “truly totally relaxed & comfy” w/my very bestestfriendever/loveofmylife as we revel & dance! heck, can even imagine occasionally “jumpin’ up & down in joy!”, in a romantic sense, “figuratively soo-wondrously-higher”(haha!) than any basketballer e’er, ever jumped! (lol) ๐Ÿ™‚

    lastly, babe, luvin… your cute/witty “play on words,” and “yeeesss!”, it’d be truly a “true joy” to converse w/you any, (&/or) ev’rytime, especially actually live-in-person w/ya face-to- lovely face! wishin’ ya a most beautiful & delightful of w/ends!!! ๐Ÿ˜€

  17. Tang says:

    Loving this post! I’m gonna go pull out my Converses now!

    I wore the high tops. I wore them everywhere.

  23. Susie says:

    Hi, Shin sweet! I love converses guess that leaves the look with style.

  25. Well, this post made my day! For the past couple of weeks, I’ve been wearing my Converses with dresses because I tend to randomly go walking in parks throughout the day and I’m too lazy to keep switching my shoes. Lol. And my mom complains about it and says I look stupid. But, your post makes me feel like maybe I’m actually being kind of cool. And I like that. ๐Ÿ˜‰ Thanks for making my day! xoxo I hope you have a great weekend.

  26. Catherine says:

    Converses, converses, converses <3 THE shoes that go with everything. I just love them, I think I'm gonna buy a white pair for this summer!

  27. Emma Whyte says:

    I bought my first pair of Cons last year & since then I am addicted!
    They are effortlessly chic & as you mentioned you can wear them dressed up or casual.
    Enjoy your weekend doll x

  28. Jess says:

    I probably wouldn’t wear them to my wedding, but I do love them with casual dresses!

    Happy Weekend!

  29. Deppa says:

    I don’t like converse and I don’t have a pair either, well.. I don’t hate them but definitely are not my style. Here where I live all, and I say ALL the girls have converse and they use them everyday, so I am a kind of girl who hates to been dressed like those girls.
    Maybe someday, but not yet.

    See you cute girl! have a great weekend ๐Ÿ™‚

  30. dahl says:

    Yay Converse!! Haha Converse are so comfy, and they make me feel uber cool when I wear them. They can be styled up or down–they’re a truly versatile shoe! Are you thinking of getting a pair? What you said about blogging being personal is so true. I like to have control over my blog, know who’s reading it, and have the ability to post whatever I want without the embarrassment of someone I know finding out! It’s really smart of you only to tell people you trust about your blog ๐Ÿ™‚

  31. Anoushka says:

    I watched it from 12 p.m to 3 p.m !

    And … I have no words to describe it! I cried . ( Yes , I’m very sensitive ^^ ) It was so MARVELLOUS! Kate is so lucky and I’m so glad for her , I am so glad for them :,)
    William and Kate are meant to be together.

  32. Anoushka says:

    OHH I wore my Converse Shoes yesterday ! It’s been a while since I wore it again !

  33. Ilaria says:

    I like converse shoes!!!
    I don’t wear it for my wedding… but my dear friend did it with long hair!! What a RnR! ๐Ÿ˜€

  34. hey, nice compilation..they look good with dresses and are super comfi
    do visit my blog and may be we can follow each other if you wish ๐Ÿ™‚

  35. I don’t own a pair of converse either but I adore the look. I just don’t think I could pull it off even though I like it on other people. I like the look you put together the pop of blue makes the outfit!! I don’t think I could wear converse on my wedding day. I’m too drawn to my heels although I would consider flip flops haha.
    I hope you have a great weekend as well!! I did get to see snippets of the Royal Wedding and nearly cried because it was so beautiful and such a dream. Her dress was exquisite indeed!

    as someone said : “Converse is love”
    I would not ,for any reasons , wear them in the first part of my wedding (after ,I don’t know ten hours of dancing,I’d switch to them)
    but so far ,I’ve lived my life in converse and probably will continue to as long as they are made <3

    Lee x

  47. I really must tell you… in Sweden, converse really get people to form opinions!
    Some really hate converse and some love them. There is even a big debate at my college about converse! One girl has even done a work in school about converse and what people think of them. It’s kind of awesome how a pair of shoes can make people react as much as they do!

    Anyway … I own 6 pairs. But I always use high heels …

  48. ellinelle says:

  60. Momojae says:

    I love this post! I currently have about 8 pairs (and not including the ones I had worn in the past) in different shapes and colours. I never get tired of them. They are so versatile with different outfits!
    As wedding shoes? Hell yes! I can’t wear heels so they will be pampering my feet AND I’m going to get my future-hubby to do the same!

  63. Hey girl !
    Thank you so so much for your sweet comment on my blog โ™ฅ.
    I’m glad to discover yours, this article is really cool. I love Converses but, well, it’s sometimes hard to match them with other items to have a good & fashion outfit. But your post really make me wanna wear my Converses, lol.
    – xoxo.

  64. Paulina says:

    Amazing shoes!
    <3

  65. Sophia says:

    I never owned Converses only some a bit converse-like shoes that are some bigger. The high cut converses look like clown’s shoes to me when I try them on but on others they are sometimes (!) nice.
    The low cut ones are much better. And they look best when they are a bit worn and used. They are looking better after some times.
    I love cute things written on the white parts of the shoes.

    xoxo Christal

  71. Kris says:

  75. Katrina says:

    I love converse! They’re my favorite shoes anytime I can’t get away with wearing flip flops. I love that you can dress up or dress casual and still get away with fun colored converses. I’ve had them in pin stripes forever but now that they’re coming out with such fun colors I got some in teal and I looove them! :)I think they’d be totally fun and comfy for a wedding, I just hope that trend isn’t too cliche whenever I get married!

  76. Marilyn says:

    Love those street styles a lot ^^

  77. Nikki says:
