Have you seen the John Lennon Peace Shoes???
I heard about these on the radio this morning, and I had to share!
Converse has a Chuck Taylor-style shoe with artwork by John Lennon. It's called the "John Lennon Peace Chuck." It has John artwork on the side, along with John's signature, and then on the front of the shoe it has lyrics from Imagine. THey are about $20 more expensive than regular Converse, but they are pretty darn cool. Photo from converse.com __________________

Andie just tell your mum that if you don't have them...you'll die! Haha. I have black hi-tops and black low-tops. But I don't think shoes that colour would be safe for me. I'd just buy them and stick them in a glass cabinet.

The color of the shoes bums me out, too. I have never owned a pair that color... I have dark purple ones that get really dirty, so beige is just asking for trouble.
But... I'll probably get them anyway. I just can't resist. a n d i- thanks. I love that book. And I think that phrase exemplifies our current political/world situation. __________________

Good thinking. Always good to get your relatives to buy you things.
Yeah, I could kinda tell they're all you wear. __________________

And I have to ask how's that, eh? But really, they are the most comfortable things in the world once they've been broken into. I just hate it that Avril Lavigne wannabes suddenly invaded the world and started wearing them. Eh.

They are $60!! But I still want them desperately anyway!
I have been obsessed with Converse since I was 12, and now I'm 23! And on converse.com, they are going to start producing ones that you design yourself. I think it starts in November. I will be ALL over that. __________________

$60?!! Nope, that really wouldn't be good to ask for, even from relatives. Especially from relatives. I'll just settle for a stupid Barnes & Noble something (that I can get here for 50 times less) or another stupid shirt that I can't wear to school because it's blazing red and says "America Home of the Brave" on the front. Not that I don't like America, but you know.

I don't think 60$ is expensive for shoes. But then again, maybe that's because I live in Australia.
