It's a fairly simple question (I think) but I need some help! You could say I'm a pretty preppy girl... not like (omg I'm really flippin annoying and too perky and I'm stuck-up!) not that kind of preppy. But, I wear polos, jeans, cute shirts from like... american eagle, aeropostale, abercrombie and fitch etc., sweatpants all that stuff that's so called, "preppy". I also like chucks... converse, whatever you would like to call them! But... some people say that converse don't really go with the whole preppy look.
What do you think? Would it be okay if I got them?
Thanks always, Christine <33

Mackenzie answered Friday November 25 2005, 10:40 pm: Christine, I say if you want it.. go for it. Judging by the maturity in your question, I suppose I can safely assume that you are not a child. You're old enough to make your own decisions (for the most part, probably.. at least when it comes to this) and choose your own friends. If someone is really and truly your friend, they won't care what you wear. And to those who do care, you don't WANT to know them. "Preppy", "Punk", "Emo", "Goth" - who cares!? Really! Just wear whatever you feel suits you best. Fashion shouldn't be this much of a headache; don't even worrie about it! [ Mackenzie's advice column | Ask Mackenzie A Question ]

orphans answered Thursday November 24 2005, 2:23 am: i think converse are really cool and look good with almost anthing. if you think you and your 'preppy' outfit look good in them, i say go for it! go for one day of experimenting. ask the people at school what they think. if too many ppl say 'eww' - im not sayin they will - and you dont feel good that way, don't wear them anywhere. hope it helps
MELiixMARiiE answered Tuesday November 22 2005, 5:00 pm: It doesn't matter what I think ; it matters what you think. Who cares what people think. You like the shoes, you get the shoes. If people are going to complain about that they obviously have no life if they're too busy worrying and complaining about what other people are wearing. If they want to do that ; they should do it about their own clothes and just worry about themselves. So if you like them, you get them. I hope I helped =]
x0bbbeachx3 answered Monday November 21 2005, 6:11 pm: Well i have a preppy look to me also and i have converse. I think it would be perfecly fine to get them its always good to have a variety in your wardrobe!!
Kr4z3y_Ch3lly answered Monday November 21 2005, 5:56 pm: yea i dont think they go good with the preppy look either but why worry about what everyone thinks?? do whatever you want! if you think its cute..wear it! dont be botherd by what others think. just do what you like. :]
xxoBriannax answered Monday November 21 2005, 5:30 pm: Well, they are considered more "punk". But, thats only a label. If you really like them, why wouldn't you buy them just because people don't think they go together with the preppy look. Although, I have never seen a prep with converse on!

malibubarbiie111 answered Monday November 21 2005, 4:26 pm: prep isn`t something you just decide to label yourself as. you are just born that way. into wealth. aeropostale && american eagle are deff. ruining the good prep name. it`s all hidious clothing. the true polos are by ralph && some by lacoste! no offence but its sounds to me like you are the type who is struggling in between social groups. get the chucks they will love dashing with your fake louis vuitton clutch, your american eagle ripped jeans, the aeropostale polo, oh && can`t forget the walmart shaded glasses!! for sure. <33 you people kill me sometimes. much loveys. ♥x0xMALiBUBARBiiE111 [ malibubarbiie111's advice column | Ask malibubarbiie111 A Question ]
xXxpinky615xXx answered Monday November 21 2005, 4:06 pm: First of all, don't listen to those assholes.
Chucks are the best mother fucking kicks EVER. I wear polos and girlie "preppy" things and I wear my beat up black and white Chucks all the time!
And plus you'd be different from every other stuck up preppy bitch in your school that wears like those 9000 dollar sneakers from A|X (armani exchange) or wherever else they buy their shoes from. I think it's a cute look. I <3 my chucks. If they have a problem with it, tell them to fuck off! PEOPLE SUCK ANYWAY! =) [ xXxpinky615xXx's advice column | Ask xXxpinky615xXx A Question ]
naimee answered Monday November 21 2005, 4:05 pm: Converse looks sexy with just about anything. My friend's exactly like you, she'll like wear abercrombie mini skirts & like tanktops with converses. I think it'd be awesome if you wore converse with preppy clothes. Who cares what other people think? You're going to look hot. (; [ naimee's advice column | Ask naimee A Question ]
sexyabercrombiechick answered Monday November 21 2005, 3:53 pm: Converses are rocker shoes...well a lot of rocks and goths wear them and honestly I don't think it goes with the look, but you donjt have to have a look you can wear all different types of things.
x_mystery answered Monday November 21 2005, 3:47 pm: Excuse my language.
Fuck labels. Wear what you wanna wear. If some people say "Converse don't really go with the preppy look" the truth? They don't. But WHY the hell do you need to fit into some stereotypical cookie cutter label. Break the goddamned mold and do somethng different. Its nice to have a change.

KatLynn answered Monday November 21 2005, 3:44 pm: I wear preppy clothes with converse all the time. I like them and they look cute. Everyone wears them now.
Edit: Me saying that everyone wears them now didn't mean that you're like everyone else. It means that everyone that dresses in all black to dressing in colors as bright as the sun can wear them and do wear them. And you say you want to be yourself yet don't want people thinking you're a poser? How is that possible? If you care enough about someone calling you a "poser" that you won't wear a certain type of shoes without the approval of 50,000 people then that isn't being yourself. It's trying to get everyone to like you. Thanks for the rating, it was appreciated. The feedback however, was not. [ KatLynn's advice column | Ask KatLynn A Question ]
Karen answered Monday November 21 2005, 3:41 pm: It would be fine to wear them, whether they go with this look or not. There's nothing wrong wearing Converses with your outfits. I wear mine pretty much everyday and they go with my "preppy" clothing. It doesn't matter what people say because and if you like them, buy and wear them.
