When I went to LA this past fall I noticed a lot of TOMS shoes walking around. Every time I saw someone in a pair, I’d have a flash of some I had seen the summer before in NYC. Toms aren’t the heartiest winter shoes, so I doubt I’ll see a pair again until the spring.
Anyway, as I was thinking about the wedding day and the many events, and my 4-inch heels, I found myself desiring a second pair of shoes to wear in-between events, or when the heels just became too much. I contemplated moccasins for a long time. I would search zappos and endless over and over again and nothing seemed to click.
Then I remembered all those TOMS shoes and how I considered them to be very “LA”, so I hopped on over to the site and found a black glitter pair! I bought them up and let the Actor’s Fund pay for them since I am currently “unemployed”…let’s face it, I’m unemployed most of the year.
I was totally validated in my choice of glitter TOMS when one of the bridesmaids had the same idea!
I’m not sure when I will ever wear my black glitter Toms again…maybe they will become my house shoes. At least, through purchasing them another person got a new pair of shoes too!
The Actors fund what??????
My first pair were the silver glitter simply cuz they were cute. I now have 9 pair because sadly they are all I wear. SO comfortable!
When you are unemployed the af will reimburse you 40 bucks on a purchase of shows no more than $80-
Once a year! I do it every year!

If you ever feel like tossing these…please toss them my way!
My sister and I were just talking about those shoes! They do look quite comfy, but I’m so much more a flip flop kind of person that I’m not sure I’ll ever indulge :)
