Payday Purchase

As you can see from my last post, I've become a sneaker convert. I've been practically living in my new Nike's when not at work and it's become a necessity for me to buy a new pair. I was going to treat myself to a new colour of the Air Max Thea's (if you like something buy it in bulk right?) when I noticed and entire Converse wall in Foot Asylum.

It's been a while since I bought a pair of Converse. I did the whole Converse/Skinnies/Blazer look to death in Uni and as a result put myself off of them. This style however, are the perfect pair to get me back into them.  With a snakeskin texture, leather effect laces and metallic toe cap these are certainly more feminine and stylish than your average Nikes. 

I also treated my nephew to a pair for his Christmas present whilst we were there. Whilst the star print would look more than a bit Chavvy on larger feet, they don't half look cute on his little size 12's. 

Payday Purchase

This weeks Payday Purchase is literally one of my favourite items of the last few seasons. We've seen huge trends in the way of Converse and Vans this past year, now it's time for a new shoe to take over. Superga.

The lightweight canvas tennis shoe, which is also machine washable BTW, has been around for around 80 years but has only just got it's turn in the spotlight thanks to stars such as Sienna Miller, Mary Kate Olsen and even Liv Tyler.

Considering owning about a hunder pairs of Converse I've not had a massive urge to run out and get a pair of Vans or even Supergas, until I spotted this pair that is.

These Superga 2750 Cotu Classic in Carrot is the perfect shoe for the autumn and will do perfectly with skinnies and a nice baggy tee for when I'm rushing about at the weekends. And what's more, at £40 the purchase won't even break the bank!
