We are travelling down south today to go this expo with BBC3, it's all very exciting but have a 4 hour drive so just wanted to dress casual today but also wanted to show you my beautiful new converse! I got them for 15 quid from ryan vintage which is such a bargain as their normal converse are all 15 so to get these for the same price is amazing. They are in my perfect size of 4 and a half as well so it was definitely meant to be for me to have them! I love converse as they make any outfit look a bit more cool and edgy as they have that retro vibe to the especially with rolled up jeans, they'd look better with my high waisted levi's but they are not comfy enough for driving. I have about 4 pairs now, black low, blue low and white high tops, so getting quite a collection going!

Anyway, I'm gonna try and get some good pictures in London but will have to see if I have time, back to essex we go!

 



 



It seems that everyone has gone American Flag crazy. From Jeffrey Campbell to converse and Topshop. I think it is a great design and very out there but in a good way. I love the american converse and am looking for a beat up pair to buy off ebay. Jeffrey Campbell have the iconic boots in the flag print but I love these platform shoes, they are part hooker part white trash but amazing none the less. Topshop have had american shorts in for a while now and this pair by Runway Dreamz are even more amazing, I just love all the fraying they do to them. I think I prefer the american flag print in fashion than the english, as it can either go 70's punk and look amazing or geri Halliwell and look a bit wrong... Either way I am loving this print for the summer, whether I actually wear it or not is a different story.
