Having recently posted about what to wear with skinny or straight jeans between seasons (ie when too warm for boots and not warm enough for ballet flats), Converse or Converse-type (for non-purists) shoes seem a good solution. This style also goes well with my two remianing bootcut jeans, and should go with the flares I'd like to try (I think).
I wear Converse-style shoes without socks in spring when warm, and in summer. But is it ever acceptable to wear something sock-like with Converses when it's less warm, and, if so, what? Realise this may be a fashion faux pas, but views welcome...
