Trainers, no, sneakers..wait, what?

 (Sneakers/Trainers c/o Burnetie Shoes.)


Lo and behold , the much loved and overworn velvet leggings.
WHAT.
They're comfortable.
Anyway, over the last three days, I've eaten my body weight in food, and
I just really can't be bothered to get fully dressed, 
so leggings and sneakers/trainers/whatever you want to call them are whats up. 

  Especially when your kicks are as pumped up as mine.
      Leather, canvas, and brilliantness.
       Also, they're super comfortable, and have a zipper.
                                                                    
  Which is just cool.

The thought behind the title of this post:

When I was a small Justina, and I read Harry Potter like...a Harry Potter reading Justina, I used to get super confused when they'd say things like "he laced up his trainers".  In the US, land of making up words to describe things other people already have a name for, a trainer is a person who yells at you until you do something better than you are doing it now. I seriously did not make the connection between sneakers/trainers until about two years ago.

So there you have it.

I promise to start wearing proper outfits again.

Soon.

 ish.

Justina


 ps. I like giving presents. 
(That's the only hint as to what is coming that you get.)

  5. Those sneakers are kind of incredible. It took me a while to get what trainers were too and I'll never adjust to that.

  6. This is such a cute post, those sneakers are so pretty and eye-catching! And most likely far more comfy than heels

  7. Haha omg the opposite happens to me growing up with British english and moving to the states this year. So I'll be like, "Guys I'm so craving jelly" and mates will be like "ew, jelly is the cheap shitty stuff. Jell-O is the good stuff, or jelly is jam." Which leaves me looking like this (O.O) "I didn't realise jelly was such a complicated word..."

Tell me what I want to hear. Or what you want to say.

Just remember:

If you're mean, I'll track you down and replace all your shoes with those hideous white tennis things that are so popular among the very sad.
