Dirty Converse

By Yvonne Waluvengo - August 23, 2015


Feels great to be done with my internship! If you're done with yours as well, you must know the feeling. I'm really glad I got a chance to do it before completing my undergrad, it was all so eyeopening, I've learnt a ton of stuff, both basic and major that will impact my career positively in future. I totally appreciate and value my internship experience. 

I'm currently in my hometown, I'll be here for a couple of days before heading back to Nairobi. I honestly forgot about Eldoret's weather pattern, one minute it's warm and sunny, the next minute its raining or plain cloudy and freezing cold, anyway, I'm slowly getting the hang of it.


Did you guys know that wearing dirty converse shoes is a thing? People do it deliberately so they can appear cooler. Note that "people" here, has "me" included haha! 

Converse shoes are one of my absolute favorites! They are fashion forward, bold and so comfortable. Let me just put it out there, anytime stylish and comfortable are in the same sentence. I'm on board. Converse shoes are without a doubt a closet staple for me. They are simply awesome and can be worn anywhere and to anything.

By the way, I want to get your opinion, do you think/believe wearing dirty converse shoes adds an extra oomph to an outfit? Share your thoughts.

I recently joined Snapchat and I swear, the excitement I have over it borders the one I had when I first downloaded Instagram, Candy Crash  and Temple Run to my phone, in that exact order.

I enjoy making Snapchat videos, it's fun, I hate my voice on tape though, It sounds weird to me, in a not-so-good way ha! Find me @juanamaua_snaps and add my account if you like, I'll add yours right back.

Before the end of the week I hope to share something on my natural hair care and put up a travel post. I bet I'll manage, considering I don't have a lot on my plate lately.

I wish you a lovely and productive week.

Love & Light

Xx
