SHOE LOVE: Converse Chuck Taylor x Missoni

If you read this blog regularly, you'll know that I'm more than a little sneaker obsessed. Given that I've worked out 2.5 times this calendar year, this might seem like an impractical choice. But here I go again, sucked in by perhaps the most tempting sneaker collab to date - and I would indeed date these shoes if I could.

The Fall '14 Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Missoni collection features Missoni’s designs on Converse’s iconic All Star silhouettes, allowing us to rock the brand's signature zig zag designs on our wannabe Italian piedi. You might recall that Missoni collaborated with Target awhile back and though I hightailed it to the closest border to pick up Missoni onesies for my newborn, I left completely empty-handed for myself. I will not make this mistake twice.

The collection will be available in Canada this coming Monday Sept 15^th at Town Shoes, Little Burgundy, Gravity Pope, Browns Shoes, Hudson Bay and Livestock.

So, are you feeling this collection, too? I'd normally do the b&w but for some reason, I am just loving those purple hi-tops. Like I need purple hi-tops...

happy fri!
