I am a big fan of Converse and pattern though lol. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dot-converse---still-too-clownish#post-586326 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 14:41:31 +0000 Carole 586326@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that's a wise decision, Kirti! They are cute but would probably be limiting. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dot-converse---still-too-clownish#post-586324 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 14:38:56 +0000 Kirti 586324@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for all your advice ladies :)</p> <p>I have decided that Cons don't look as long on my feet as I think, but that this is not the pair for me. I'll try a solid colour next time! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dot-converse---still-too-clownish#post-586271 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 13:39:57 +0000 Sara L. 586271@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they're cute and your feet don't look clownish. I feel that way sometimes too but I think it's just a perception issue with looking down on the shoes. In the side shot, your feet like quite small. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dot-converse---still-too-clownish#post-586259 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 13:24:59 +0000 HelenInCanada 586259@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They're cute, but I think the white laces are fighting with the white polka dots for attention. The polka dot whimsy of it all is a bit lost to me. Maybe with navy coloured laces...? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dot-converse---still-too-clownish#post-586168 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 10:18:42 +0000 ManidipaM 586168@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute, but that fights a little with the clean sporty vibe of Cons --- it wouldn't be as versatile as your other shoes, and I'm only mentioning this because you pride yourself on the lean, mean curating! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dot-converse---still-too-clownish#post-585881 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 00:38:10 +0000 Jem 585881@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry, but I'm a dissenter. As much as LOVE polka dots, I don't think I like them on the Converse. I have actually been looking at them online and think they are so cute, but I think they look a bit juvenile, especially with skinny jeans. I think I might like them a bit better with bootcuts (because more of them would be hidden) but not with skinny jeans. I vote for more oxfords... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dot-converse---still-too-clownish#post-585848 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 23:44:10 +0000 Meredith1953 585848@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kirti,<br /> I LOVE them. I actually posted about them awhile back!<br /> You look adorable in them and even if they don't go with everything, they will look cute with quite a few things! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dot-converse---still-too-clownish#post-585751 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 21:07:40 +0000 CocoLion 585751@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have the youth to pull off this look! I like them on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dot-converse---still-too-clownish#post-585740 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 20:45:23 +0000 Andrea B. 585740@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They are adorable! I want a pair of "out there" ones, too, so I bought on pair on sale in a neutral (natural) that can work with other things in my wardrobe. Check out Ross--there have been some really good sales, although you'll have to pick through a lot of stuff. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dot-converse---still-too-clownish#post-585720 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 20:20:10 +0000 Transcona Shannon 585720@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love Cons (have solid grey ones) and think they can definitely work in a wardrobe. I'm wondering if the polka dot ones are versatile enough though? They are cute. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dot-converse---still-too-clownish#post-585672 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 18:41:41 +0000 texstyle 585672@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would skip the polka dots on these. I've never been that fond of converse but I've grown more accustomed to them lately. I think polka dots take them back the other direction for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dot-converse---still-too-clownish#post-585667 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 18:36:55 +0000 christieanne 585667@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them but you might get more wear from a solid color. I do wear my tweed Cons all the time but hey are gray tones and pretty neutral (and like 6 yrs old).<br /> Did you see Natalie/goldenpig's picks of her Red Cons with skinnies recently? I didn't think her feet looked clownish.<br /> It's when we look down that we think our feet our too big </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dot-converse---still-too-clownish#post-585638 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 18:03:11 +0000 bj1111 585638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i love these. also, have you thought abt diy painting the tops of your other shoes? i think love maegan did one with spray paint. very cute, say in fuschia or hot pink or even the trendy mint. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dot-converse---still-too-clownish#post-585637 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 18:02:59 +0000 Anonymous 585637@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Dotty in shoe form! Love them! Converses look great with skinnies, in my opinion. Haha. </p> <p>Nice punch to jean uniforms </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/polka-dot-converse---still-too-clownish#post-585635 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 18:00:53 +0000 Kirti 585635@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I tried these on at a local shoe store today. I'm still not sure whether these look okay on me or too long and clownish. I would love to know what you think! Pls keep in mind that I dont wear bootcut jeans and I want sneakers to wear with skinnies. </p>
