An Eventful Weekend

This past weekend was a crazy one, but definitely amazing. My boyfriend and I went back to Tampa to attend his sister's wedding. I decided to wear the bright blue dress from H&M that was on Fashion Star with the cut-out back - I'm obsessed. It was the perfect dress for the occasion, and a statement white necklace looked great with my sky-high wedges. 

Saturday, we headed back to Orlando to attend my sorority's Formal, or Sapphire Ball as we call it. I had frantically searched for a dress, and finally found a hot pink Jessica Mcclintock short dress that I loved. My boyfriend, Jordan, found a light pink shirt and matching striped tie, paired with a brand new pair of classic black and white converse. During the event, superlatives were awarded, and I was awarded the title of Best Dressed :) Overall, they were such fun events, and I had a great time this weekend!

Did you do anything fun this weekend? What's your go-to wedding outfit?

CONVERSE

I still remember when I was at high school by the 90's that the Converse sneakers came into fashion. That was the grunge time when maxi jerseys, ripped jeans and checkered shirts were in fashion. For me Converse sneakers was love at first sight. I can remember that I bought a pair in pink, well, pink is not a grunge colour actually. 

Some years ago the grunge style became popular again, although maybe not in such an excessive way as in the 90's. So with this trend, Converse  sneakers became popular, too. It seemed that this trend would last only a few days, but the truth is that we see Converse sneakers regularly in the streets and in shop windows. Even celebrities and bloggers wear them daily.

 

Todavía me acuerdo de cuando, estando en el instituto allá por los años 90, se pusieron de moda las zapatillas Converse. Era la época del grunge, de los jerseys grandes, de los pantalones vaqueros rotos, de las camisetas estiradas, de las camisas de leñador… Y a mí las Converse me cautivaron enseguida. Recuerdo que me compré unas en color rosa, que, ahora que lo pienso, no son muy grunge, pero lo cierto es que elegí ese color.
Y como en moda todo vuelve, hace unos años regresó el estilogrunge, aunque quizás no tan exagerado como en la década de los 90. Y con élvolvieron también las Converse.Parecía que iba a ser cosa de dos días, la verdad es que las Converse siguen viéndose por lacalle y en los escaparates. Incluso las celebrities y las bloggers las usan ensu día a día.

Last year I bought a pair of Converse sneakers in white and I usually wear them because they're very comfortable. As a sign, here you have a look of mine wearing them. Actually I feel so comfy with them that I really want to buy a new pair. There are too many different types: with the American flag, with dots, with flowers, in denim or even with a Batman drawing.  

Yo misma, que el año pasado me compré mis Converse blancas,sigo llevándolas cuando quiero ir cómoda. Como muestra, aquí tenéis un look que hice con ellas. De hecho, estoy tan a gusto con ellas que tengo ganas de comprarme otras. Ahorahe visto que además de colores diversos las hay con la bandera americana, conlunares, con flores, con tela vaquera e incluso con un Batman dibujado.
