Yellow Converse All Stars

One of the several pairs of shoes I own is a pair of yellow Converse trainers, purchased from Office on Princes Street, Edinburgh, a few years ago in summer 2008. Back then, the shoes were a brilliant yellow, and naturally my young eyes were drawn to their brightness as a bee is drawn to a colouful flower. They had to be mine.

However, I was a naive 16-year-old boy, and therefore made a somewhat costly mistake in buying them. Because after nearly three years, I've grown some sense and finally realised - even with the colour faded slightly after several washes - they just don't go well with many items in my wardrobe.

The Lower Gardens, Bournemouth

One of the more individual styles I've seen so far, but that doesn't mean I don't think 
she looks great. It was the smaller details that caught my attention first, notably the
Ray-Ban sunglasses and the different coloured laces on her walking boots.

Rachel Rose Reid, The Winchester

Not only an outstanding storyteller and performer, Rachel Rose Reid dresses

beautifully too. Her prom-style, skull and rose print dress looked so elegant on

stage, complemented by black heels and a warm amber cardigan.
