I am ever so slightly obsessed with trainers so thought I would dedicate a whole post to some of my favourite pairs....
Even thought trainers in all shapes and sizes are super popular now with girls I probably wear them more than most and consider myself a bit of a fanatic so here's a peek into my collection. Any questions about any of the pairs just leave a comment.
I would like to point out at this stage that I have very small feet (size 2-3) so some of my pairs will be from kids/youth/junior ranges. Just in case any of you with normal sized feet can't find a pair I've included!
from top left across...
Converse Canvas White High Tops - Purchased for an absolute bargain price in New York last year! An old favourite; goes with everything from dresses to jeans and will be a pair I repurchase again and again as they like all Converse, they are timeless!
Black Slip On Vans - A recent but long awaited addition to my collection! These shoes make me a very happy bunny indeed. Also bought from New York for a steal at $35!! These are from the kids section but they definitely do an adult version too. Can't wait for the weather to get a bit warmer so I can wear these.
Hot Pink Converse Canvas High Tops - Bought specifically to wear in the Summer when I will hopefully have a bit more of a tan! I see a lot of girls rocking the baby pink high tops but as of yet haven't seen anyone in the bright pinks so let's hope it stays that way! I do like to be a bit different...
Neon Pink Nikes - Love love LOVE these trainers. Bought in America (can you see a theme emerging here?) last year and have not seen a single other soul in them which is a result! I feel a bit like big foot in them as they are a 3.5 which is a half a size up than I normally wear but the shop didn't have a 3 and I was determined to have them :)
Maroon Canvas Converse Lows - My friend had these and I just had to copy her as I absolutely love this colour at the moment. Worn them a lot and they're beginning to get a bit grubby but can definitely see myself replacing them with a fresh pair as I really do like them a lot.
All Black Converse High Tops - These were a present from my boyfriend and they were a very good present at that! Worn them a lot and still look in top condition (black wears so much better than most other colours). Usually rock these with frilly ankle socks as pictured! I'm going to get a bit creative and apply some crystals to the front rubber part so watch this space...
Neon Adidas - Another present from my boyfriend! These were a present at the beginning of the year for my birthday. I'd never seen them before and fell in love when I opened the box. As I've mentioned I like being a bit different and these definitely fit the bill. These again are from a kids range and haven't seen any from an adidas adult range unfortunately so anyone who does not have pixie feet could miss out.
Converse All White Leather High Tops & Converse Navy Leather High Tops - I have wanted the all white leather ones for over a year now and when I went to buy them the navy ones were sitting next to them and I couldn't resist! Am going to try my hardest not to wear the white ones until summer to keep them fresh but knowing me they'll be worn in about a weeks time!
All White Converse Lows With Crystals - My boyfriend came up trumps yet again with these little beauts. These were a Christmas 2012 present and I was chuffed! My boyfriend loves trainers as much as me so I knew I would be getting a pair for christmas and he did amazingly well with these. He bought me a crystallising kit as well so I can do my own! Top marks.
Pink Nike Suede Blazers - I wanted a pair of these for such a long time but was debating between the lows and high tops. I finally bought these on a whim and I am so glad I chose these as I hear the high tops aren't as comfy!
Leopard Print High Tops With Studs - These are from Primark would you believe! I have a few non-branded trainers such as these because sometimes shops do come up trumps and surprise me with a fresh pair! I don't wear these a lot purely because I know they won't last long but they really spruce up a plan outfit and they were a bargain at £12!
Keep a look out on my blog as I will be compiling a wish list of trainers I hope to purchase throughout the year! I also sell a lot of trainers (and clothes actually) on eBay to make room for more so follow me on twitter @SophieJHines as I normally sent a tweet when I'm listing.
Let me know your favourite pair of trainers you own and if my post has inspired you to buy a new pair let me know which ones!
