I have an obsession. I have random obsessions about 35 times a year which I like to call "kicks". I go on kicks where I obsess over something until I either get it or forget about it. Almost always, I forget about it and it leaves my mind and I'm over it. But TOMS. Toms have been my obsession or kick for the past couple years.
I got my first pair of Toms for Christmas in 2010 from Jamie's family. They are gray. Then I got some red ones from Jamie for Valentine's Day. Then I got the classic burlap Tom's and the black Toms with silver pok-a-dots from my parents this past Christmas.
THAT'S NOT ENOUGH!!!
My Toms obsession is growing and growing and GROWING! I lust after them weekly (like I get on the website just to look at them...pathetic), but I know they're way too expensive to buy any right now...just for fun. Dang it.
So, until I win the lottery, make the big bucks in retail (yeah right), find a few thousand buckaroos lying around or sell my arm to science, my new pair of Toms will have to wait for me on the shelves.
But until then, I can still have fun shopping online, gazing at each pair adoringly :) Here are some of my current favorites:
These would go with absolutely anything:
Black Calypso Canvas Women's Wedges

These wouldn't go with everything, but they're too cute to boot and I think I'd wear them to vacuum if given the chance:
Snow Leopard Women's Wedges
I have NO idea what I'd wear these with, but I just think they're precious:
Pink Ceara Women's Cordones

If I tell Jamie that I would think of him every time I wore these because of the hearts, do you think he'd let me get them?:
These are just classic and beautiful:
Floral Burlap Women's Classic

Yet again, not sure what I'd wear with these, but they're unbelievably cute and I LOVE the lilac color and they're just elfy and sweet:
Lilac Wisset Desert Boots

Isabel Burlap Ballet Flats

(Source)The ballet flats are their newest line and I've been eyeing them for months. Anyone own any? Are they just as comfy as the classic Toms? I just love this simple and classic style:

So there's a look into my *not so* new obsession. I love Toms and I really do love what their philosophy is. One for one movement. I love that I have four pair of Toms and that means that 4 children, men or women have shoes on their feet as well that may not have had a pair of shoes in the first place. Read more about the "One for One Movement" here and be inspired to go shopping! I'm pretty sure my dad has given shoes to every child in China, because he is such a Toms fanatic :) Way to go, Dooda!
Alright, Im off to finish The Bachelor. It's quite riveting, no? Good golly...my brain is shrinking by the minute...
Love you guys. Hope you had a marvelous Monday.
