If you guys know me you know I HAVE A STRANGE, UNHEALTHY obsession with white shoes.
Like open my closet & there’s WHITE, WHITE, white pumps, white penny loafers, white oxfords ( < fav ), white Converse, & white flip flops ( strictly for the house, to be real I’m not an outside flip flop wearer unless I’m lounging poolside in Cabo with a fruity umbrella drink ).
I’d probably die without white shoes ( you know this already though if you follow me on Snaphat ), I swear I dream of them.
AKA my Visa hates me.
Let’s get specific about white kicks: I HATE when they get dirty.
In fact, I’ve literally gotten in too many fights with Michael because he ‘accidentally’ steps on my white shoes…& well, I go into full blown meltdown mode.
Can he EVER look where he’s going?! I MEAN.
There’s one exception to this story: my white Converse.
{ white tee | skirt | sunglasses (similar) | shoes | white nail polish }
Every girl on the planet should own a pair of Converse. I got mine from Nordstrom…AKA my favorite department store because they carry the best brands, the music is so Girl From Ipanema/therapeutic, & there’s a full-on men’s section which is so perfect for distracting men while you shop till you drop ( *cough, cough* on their AMEX ). Anyway, Nordstrom is Converse heaven with every color/style ( think turquoise, red, grey, high top, low top ).
Because maybe you’re a dolphin grey or poolside teal kinda girl ( but clearly I’m Team White ).
And call me weird but I like my Chucks to look a little vintage. Kinda rugged.
So I scuff them up. I like when Michael steps on these ones. I’m like, ‘step on my shoes babe!!!’ LOL.
Anyway, I wore this outfit to a girl’s night out ( sushi & saki!! ) and it was a perfect look because it was relaxed with a touch of chic ( heyyy long, tight maxi with a slit!! ).
I swear though, you can rock white shoes with everything, every season, every second.

Call me crazy, but I don’t own a pair of converse! I know, crazy! But I will probably end up getting a pair this summer, or TOMS, not sure which ones, though!
If I were to get a pair, they’d probably be grey – therefore, I’m a dolphin grey kinda girl!

You have to! They are the best!
Plus, Converse are so versatile! I’m into white shoes, white bedding, white home decor – love love love! Except now with a baby and another on the way, sticky fingers are destroying my dreams!!
Looking gorgeous 😉

Totally agree. They are super versatile! Congrats on the baby ; ) x
Story of my life with anything black! Literally the ONLY color I have in my closet!
My white Chucks are my FAVE shoes ever. My first pair were left out in the rain and got moldy disgusting. I maybe (definitely) cried. Second pair are now perfectly broken in and slightly dirty, and I’m more wary of their whereabouts…
Perfect, need to dirty my up more.
I’ve been wanting to get a pair of white converse! They go with basically everything, as you know haha!

Thank you for the reminder that I need to re-up my white shoe stock! It’s beginning to run low since I recently moved!!! I LOVE these!!! <3
Thanks babe! x
I love Converses. They are my favorite shoe and if I had the money, I think I’d buy a pair in nearly every color. I’ve see the white ones a lot lately. I like them, and I would like a pair, but I prefer bright colors in almost every situation.

Me too. I kinda want the teal ones!
I’m with you on the white shoe obsession! & just white in general. It’s become my favorite color to wear and for interiors. SO much so, that my closet is pretty much all white, and I’m painting all my furniture. It’s driving my hubby crazy lol But come on, it’s so fresh and light, I can’t help it! Love white converse looking more rugged though!
