High Top Converse | Forever 21 Striped Dress (sold out, similar here) | Navy Lapel Jacket (only $30!) | Initial Necklace | Small Longchamp Bag (customized here) | Pearl Studs | Tortoise Ray Bans | Lipstick in ‘Heat Wave‘
There’s something so cheeky and so fun about high top converse. My first encounter with them was when my sister bought a pair and wore them all over Italy on our spring break trip last year! I have to confess… I didn’t think I could pull them off for the longest time. But as they started growing in popularity over here at the University of Texas (I’m looking at you, Kendall!) I figured it was time to pull the trigger. And I’m so happy I did! They added the perfect punch of fun to this classic navy and white look, which I topped off with a high pony (another one of my new favorite trends) and a bright red lip. So I’m curious about your thoughts… has the converse trend reached your neck of the woods? Will you be sporting a pair this spring?
On another note, I am so excited to gush on my new lady behind the lens, Hilary Rattikin! Hilary is a Kappa with me here at UT, and is a crazy talented photographer. I couldn’t be more excited to work with her, so be on the lookout for more of her pictures here on the blog! And while you’re at it, check out and like her Facebook page. She recently posted a rainy engagement shoot that will make you swoon! Thank you cute Hilary!

What did you think of sheinside?? I’ve been so scared to order form them.
Hi Valerie! I know what you mean… I was too! I can honestly say I’ve been very happy with everything I’ve ordered from them! My tip is to only buy products that have the “style gallery” portion at the bottom – that way you can see how the item looks in real life. Hope that helps!
I’m really not sure how I went this long without knowing about customized Longchamps… I’m so happy that you posted this but I’m not too sure my wallet is! I’m sure you’ll get a lot of use out of your Converse when you go to Paris for spring break, comfy shoes are always the way to go.

I haven’t seen much of the hightops but the really low ones with the “scrunchy” backs in white are everywhere! Classic look :)
I love your striped Longchamp bag! It’s perfectly you!
