Confession time: My obsession over these these Chinatown print slip on sneakers have reached new heights when I nagged 4 different people who are traveling to hunt them down for me. I lie awake at night with the thought I HAVE TO HAVE THEM! Since I still can’t get hold of it for 3 weeks now, I’ve come to accept that I will not be getting them any time soon. That won’t stop me though from finding a suitable alternative as I’ve stubbornly decided that slip on sneakers is my new ballet flats.

I wanted a classic everyday black pair that is wearable with any outfit and found the perfect ones at Kurt Geiger (I squealed and did a victory dance in the shop). I drag these babies everywhere now. My favorite take so far is sport suiting where I’ve recycled my shoes with pinstripe suit, wide leg gray pants and shirt and as seen here: cropped pants with blazer. This will keep me happy until I get the ‘IT’ pair from Celine. My mother-in-law happens to be traveling this week to France. Are you thinking what I’m thinking?…
