After some intense back and forth debate (in my head) I gave in and purchased two pairs. For the holidays. I think I'm probably crazy, because my feet are not nearly dainty enough to look adorable in these. I could have purchased a nice pair of flats for what it cost me to buy these two pairs and I would probably look much more pulled together.

But Moroccan geometric designs in silver and herringbone in glittery GOLD? I really didn't stand a chance. They have arrived. I love them.
I love my TOMS. I have the silver glitters and I have literally worn them to pieces!
ReplyDeleteAnd it's for a good cause :) How can you go wrong?
Those look great! And so comfortable, to boot.
ReplyDeleteLove these new designs - serious temptation!
ReplyDeleteAh, love Toms. No worries, you made a good choice :-)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the Silver Moroccan TOMS... and they are vegan :)
ReplyDeleteI love their look, but i've been concerned about how much protection they provide your feet--do the provide sufficient support, so you don't feel like you're grinding your heels into pavement?
ReplyDeletei lovvve my toms!!! yours are soo cute!!
ReplyDeleteI have the original Moroccan ones (white & navy), and they are sooo easy to throw on and go. Not to mention WAY more comfortable than most of the shoes I buy. I think I need sparkly TOMS now... gold or silver? Hmm. xoxo.
ReplyDeletep.s. @Emily - I find them to have sufficient support. They have a squishy insole.
You also bought 2 pairs of shoes for kids who need them, so really, you bought 4 pairs of shoes for what you paid. ;)
ReplyDeleteI love mine, and I really want the burlap ones, but now you've got me wanting a glittery pair, too!
i'm looking for some flats, too, was thinking of finding something a little more dressed up, but these might just fit the bill.
ReplyDeleteI went to high school with Blake, who invented TOMs, love what he's doing for the world.
ReplyDeleteBisous,

Love these! So awesome. I think the silver sparkly ones are going on my Christmas wishlist!
ReplyDeletethose are so cute!
ReplyDeleteso fun. the metallics are still neutral enough to wear daily, but add a dose of glamor to casual outfits.
ReplyDelete@ emily - I would agree with nicole and say that they have sufficient support. If I were a waitress or a nurse, on my feet absolutely all day, they probably wouldn't suffice. But they work for me, and I'm up and down all day long.
ReplyDeleteLove these. I'm thinking about getting my first pair....there are just too many options!!
ReplyDeleteTOMS are the most comfortable shoes ever. The gold ones are festive and glam.

I don't own any TOMS...yet. One of my bride clients got gold, glittery TOMS for all her bridesmaids as a their gift. They were a huge hit. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI love my TOMS. They're blue corduroy, faded and falling apart from almost daily use for over a year. I wear them to one of my jobs, where I'm on my feet for hours on end, and they are just cushiony enough to keep my feet from aching.
ReplyDeletethose are so cute and festive, but i can just tell they would be soooo unflattering on my short, large-calfed legs. haha!
ReplyDeleteThe gold ones are my fave. They had a navy glitter pair a few years back that I STILL regret never buying, so it's good you bought them while they're available!
ReplyDeleteI think this is a really interesting phenomenon - why the popularity for shoes/boots that do nothing for anyone when the "originals" are just as comfortable?!! Quite a mystery. Personally, I still think the classic (and cheap as chips) Mediterranean espadrilles in all colours are perfect summer wear, flat or with a slight heel, with or without ties. And I still prefer the classic Swedish-style clog to any croc anyone can offer, they give me the creeps. And what about Uggs - nobody can seem to walk straight in them and they look terrible on anybody, however beautiful, so give me a simply constructed classic boot that is waterproof and useful anyday (a Camargue boot, for instance).... I still think these are all really strange fashions!!!! ;O
ReplyDeleteI didn't need to know about these. Actually, I did. But my bank account did not.
