#WantItWednesday (02/04/2014)

Hello April!!

Spring is finally here and I for one am incredibly excited! The weather makes me want to frolic outside for extended periods and have picnics in every park in London at every given opportunity.

This unnatural need to frolic, requires comfortable footwear and you should look no further than these incredible versatile kicks from Superga.

The Italian footwear company is a staple in their native Turin and have been one of Italy's best kept secrets ever since (The don't call it 'The People's Shoe of Italy' without warrant!)

Worn with Skinny jeans and a loose shirt, or a fabulous floaty sun dress these are the perfect kicks to kickback in.

These are the grown up, chic alternative to the ubiquitous converse, which you of course already own and love and are the fashinonista's plimsolls of choice; worn by the likes of Alexa Chung, Suki Waterhouse (who has collaborated with the brand on a fabulous collection) & The Olsen Twins; these amazing plimsolls are perfect for everything.

I normally pair mine with a pair of skinny jeans and a loose shirt and this forms part of my weekly work uniform (Have a look on my thoughts on uniforms here).They are INCREDIBLY comfortable and are available in a plethora of amazing colours, fabrics, skins and heights.

Quirk them up with a pair of fun, colourful socks with jeans or go bare legged with a jersey midi dress or skirt with a casual jumper. I personally cannot get enough of these plimsolls and will wear and love them just as much as I did when I first slipped on my favourite pair of light pink Converse aged 14. Get ready, you've just found a new trainer love.

Have a look at how I would style looks based around these beauties below:
