for a while now I've been thinking of getting a pair of converse lace ups. I know they aren't the most fashionable item but I've seen a few people (and celebs like Nicole Richie) rockin' them and thought I should give it a try.
I also thought it might encourage me to ride my retro-look bike a bit more (hasn't worked yet).
it's pretty ain't it?
I found a pair of converse at Amart all sports normally priced at $89.95 but going out for a bargain price of ten buckaroonies and my dreams were answered. Sweet deal or what?!
Did anyone try and get every colour in these slip ons back in the day? I look at them now and cringe a little.
Between my twinnie and I I reckon we had at least six pairs. I also had a pair of blue one stars at school and I took such pride in decorating them with glitter and puff paint. Oh those were the days.
Remember, I'd love you to join me - what was your best buy of the week?
Hehe I had that exact pair. I cringe now too!!
ReplyDeleteGod old converse! Love the new blog, looks fabulous. Where did you get your layout? A new layout for 2012 could be a good idea. Xxx
ReplyDeleteThat bike is adorable! My buy of the week has to be a vintage leather suitcase. I am now following your blog :)
