The Keds x Kate Spade collaboration isn’t new. But it is extremely cute and affordable. And did I mention cute?
I know, I’m behind the times. But these have been on my radar since I saw them get released, I just have been procrastinating trying to save money, so I have resisted. Until now.
I decided that I would finally pick up a pair, as I don’t have any sneakers anymore, and with my pending trip I would be able to travel in style and comfort. Perfection! It’s oddly reminiscent because back when I was a wee one, Keds were the only shoes that fit me comfortably as I had such narrow feet. Keds now, and Keds then.
I remember doodling all over the white ones, and making them my “own”. Now, I won’t be doodling on these ones, but they will be mine regardless. I chose the white with black polka dots, as I will most likely wear them more than a funkier patterned shoe. I cannot wait to skip around Paris in these. [Who am I kidding though, I’ll skip around the whole of Europe in them… not just Paris.]
I did actually skip around Europe in them, and I don’t know what happened. I didn’t bring any rain gear, so when it poured in France while at Disneyland, my Keds got soaked. Not a big deal right? They’re canvas so it’s somewhat expected that they are not torrential downpour proof. My only thing with them is that it wasn’t so much the canvas part that was leaking… it was the bottom of the shoe! It’s a little disheartening, as these shoes are literally only a month old, and I need to glue them together. Sadly, I spent a good portion blow drying my shoes to get them dry. Especially in London.
