I love my ankle boots with a heel as much as the next person but when it comes to living in a town where the streets are cobbled and the best bars are down tiny little lanes, signposted by a few wonky steps and a dusty path, then sadly my feet and calves don't agree half as much.
I've always been a fan of Converse on girls but with the recent come back it all feels a little... same-y. Now that the recent fashion weeks have settled down, plus a pinch of back-to-work blues, I seem to be browsing the internet more than ever... shopping online, scouring blogs and topping up my addiction for style.com. And so I've ditched my Converse and found a new love for the Slip-On. A little different from the classic sneaker.. a handful of animal print, some with tassels and others venture down the metallic road; they all spruce up those black skinnies and bomber jackets we're all so into.
Céline, Givenchy, Tory Burch..
They're all doing it,
they're all beautiful,
they're all out of my pre-Christmas price range.
I have found one exception though and it comes in the form of the Zara Bamba Hair Tassel Sneaker; adored by fashion bloggers of the minute, including Danielle Berstein AKA WEWOREWHAT.COM, and they cost £69.99 (€59.95).
