One for One

For my birthday I decided I wanted to get my first pair of Toms Shoes and my wonderful hubby obliged.  He originally bought me a Vera Bradley laptop case, but it ended up being too small for my computer, so this was a great alternative.  It was a hard choice, but I decided to go with the red Classics.  Having a size 11 foot that happens to be very narrow does not make for easy shoe shopping.  I went to one store and tried them on.  The 11 was too loose, but the 10 felt small.  Feeling discouraged, we left without my Toms.  I decided that I wanted to try them on again just to make certain.  I tried on size 10 and it is snug, but the clerk said they would stretch a good half size, so I decided to go with them.  I am still trying to figure out what to wear them with, red is a dicey color but I love them (any suggestions would be appreciated).  They are so comfy and feel like I am wearing socks.  I am so excited to have them and to know that I was able to send a pair of shoes to a child.

  2. Several bloggers have recently bought TOMS shoes, and I'm starting to really want a pair myself. Plus, I love their cause and mission. You've got a great blog here, I'm glad I stumbled across it!
