Once upon a time, Converse All Star shoes were for men only. Luckily for women, those days are long gone. The look, the feel, the sheer greatness of the Chuck Taylor style is for everyone. Even if the name is Charlene, rather than Charles. While these shoes have the classic elements they’re also as feminine as perfume. "The high top creates a comfortable envelope for the ankle,” argues Sarah Mutoni, a fashion house owner in Nyamirambo.Though some appear fun, girly, and ‘painted’ in multiple colors, you still get that classic ‘basketball’ shoe you can use for any activity. You could be nine or ninety and these women’s Converse shoes would still be right for you. They can be of a style that creates energy every time you wear them. Funky, even in black and white, the graphics are fun, varied, and an ideal way to flash out in your wardrobe. Trust those who have them, there’s nothing scruffy about these cool shoes. It’s glam all the way. You don’t have to be a galactic princess to wear these shoes, but you’ll feel like one when you do.bgasore@gmail.comadding a touch of fun
