In my Shoes
Recently, a couple of different friends have mentioned they were thinking of buying a pair of converse shoes, but wondered if they were too old to wear them. The thought had never crossed my mind!
I bought my first pair when I was 16. Red chuck taylor high tops. I wore them with everything. Jeans, shorts, even a white lacy dress. I'm not sure what happened to them, living in the tropics at the time they probably went mouldy.
Many years later I bought another pair. This is going to sound particularly ridiculous, but I bought a pair of pink baby cons and decided to get a matching pair for myself. My baby outgrew hers but I still have mine. I now own 4 pairs and wear them frequently...but not with lacy white dresses!
Is there an age limit on converse sneakers? I imagine I'll still be wearing mine when I'm 60!
What are your favourite shoes...are you a Louboutin heels type of girl or more of a Hush Puppy?
I don't think there is a limit on converse. When we went to Paris a few years back I saw converse on woman of all ages. They were so popular! xo
ReplyDeleteThat's true Debbie. I actually bought the grey ones in Marsailles, although I seldom wear those.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you say there is no age limit on converses because I've been thinking of buying myself a pair for a while.
ReplyDeleteConverses, Doc Martins and Kickers were foot staples when I lived in France.
No age limit at all. I think I will wear chucks forever.
ReplyDeleteHope your having a wonderful day!
Much Love,

I've never owned any and now I want some!!!
ReplyDeleteI have teeny tiny feet so I often have to buy kids shoes...totally embarrassing, I know!
So I get whatever fits...oh, and I like comfy. I LOVE heels, but never wear them anymore.
I'm probably more a Hush Puppy person. I haven't worn heels for many years and I've never worn Converse sneakers, although they look pretty cool.
ReplyDeleteThose who are considering them - they are so comfortable! I prefer the low tops as they are easier to kick off.
ReplyDeleteI am and will always be a flip flop gal.
ReplyDeleteNo age limit! I would love to own a pair (matter of fact, why don't I own a pair? lol)
