Winter ’18 Capsule Outfit No. 8 Boyfriend Jeans & Yellow Converse
These colorful converse were kind of a breakthrough (lots of those lately!) for me.
I’ve been searching for the perfect (but elusive) pair of statement shoes for a really long time.
I tried on so many pairs that just didn’t work.
And you know what?
I realized that I was pursuing the wrong type of shoe.
I was looking for heels or ballet flats or something like that.
I don’t like any of those types of shoes. Just try catching me wearing a pair of heels (other than my clogs of course!).
Then I saw these yellow converse and it all just came together for me.
I realized that a statement shoe was in the cards for me, but in sneaker form.
As a stay at home mom, I am in comfy clothes 90% of the time, and these shoes work for, not only my style, but my lifestyle as well.
Considering your lifestyle is so important when putting together a capsule wardrobe… you would think I would have figured that out by now, but, well? It’s a process you guys.
What types of clothes fit in with your lifestyle?
P.S. notice the makeup stains on the collar of my shirt? #everydangtime

Until next time,
I think it’s beautiful that your revelation was only to tell you to stay true to your style! In my mind, you’re the Converse girl.
Haha thanks Lori! There’s definitely worse things to be called. 😉
I was a bridesmaid in a wedding where we had to wear a blue dress with Orange shoes, our choice. I asked my unconventional bride friend if I could wear Orange converse and she said go for it! I knew I would never wear Orange heels (not my color) but I definitely would wear Orange converse. And that’s how I acquired my statement shoe.
I love that! And I love that the bride was cool enough to let you.
Love the yellow converse! Might have to get myself a pair ?
They’re pretty fun!
