I have been a huge fan of TOMS Shoes since they first came out!
My first pair ever was a pair of black sparkly ones, and I think they were given to me by my beloved Sam!
Since then I have acquired many pairs. Between me and Paige, I am sure that we have had over a dozen pairs.
Paige recently received her monthly Stitch Fix box (another obsession of mine)! She opened the box and I immediately caught a glimpse of the beautiful blue and white bag that I know all too well. The anticipation was boiling in my stomach as she looked over each piece of clothing, concentrating way too hard on this blue sweater thing that would definitely not fit me. But I knew whatever was in the bag would fit me just fine!
She finally made it to the bag and pulled out a pair of plain red canvas Toms. Though she was not as enthusiastic about the shoes as she was about that tiny sweater, I was immediately drawn to them. So much so, that as I was putting her new things away, the Toms got put away in my closet! She found them later and informed me that they were “hers” and she carted them off to her room. No worries though…it was not long before I found something to wear them with and I quickly snag them back. I will never forget the first time I wore them (even though it was like 2 weeks ago). All day long, I would have this happiness run through my body every time I looked down at my feet.
Since then I have worn every item in my closet that would complement these beautiful shoes. Since I do not have a lot of red things, every neutral outfit has recently gotten a splash of color. Even my son wears and loves Toms.
When I have them on I feel like Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz,
and I just want to click my heels together and say “there’s no place like…vacation, there’s no place like vacation.” Then when I open my eyes I will be laying on a beautiful beach in the Caribbean where the water is actually blue and my responsibilities are nowhere in sight. Lathering tanning oil on my much thinner tanner and taller body…
Oh sorry, I got a little carried away.
These shoes have brought new meaning to my wardrobe. They can turn a plain ole gray and black tee into a masterpiece! My skinny jeans have never looked so good. Being in close proximity to these beautiful cherry bombs can bring life to any old garment!
Christmas is right around the corner!!! Do you know what would be perfect for the Christmas season??? Why, yes!!! “My” beautiful red Toms!!!

They are comfortable! I wear my Toms almost ever day. They are like my winter flip flops…I can kick them off under my desk and prop my feet up!!! LOL
So fun when something simple brings so much joy! I love red shoes, but don’t have any – maybe I should fix that!
This was my first pair of red and I am loving them way more than I ever would have thought!!!
Those red shoes look perfect with jeans! I bet they are the perfect splash with your neutral outfits!

They are! I never would’ve bought a pair of red shoes for fear they wouldn’t go with much but you would be surprised!!!
I haven’t bought toms shoes in years. But I love love pop of color shoes and finding a perfect fit! Glad you find that!
I love Toms, they are so comfy and the color of these is gorgeous! The perfect fall and winter accessory.
Loving your red toms 🙂
I have always wanted a pair of toms, they are just so expensive – but they look so comfortable!
Hey Debra, watch on Zulily…they go on sale on there a lot 🙂

I’ve never had blue ones! I might have to try those next!
You red toms look comfy, and sometimes I love wearing shoes like yours.
Those are very cute shoes! I love the comparison to Dorothy and the Wizard of Oz. Your photos are really good too!
Thanks! 🙂
These are so cute! I have serious foot issues and am always looking for comfy shoes. Are these ones that still feel comfortable after hours? I am a teacher and need shoes that are still comfortable 8 hours later.
I think they are very comfortable but my friend can’t wear them. They are very flat so if you have an arch they might not be comfortable.
I didn’t really understand the Tom trend until I put on a pair for myself. They are great flats and comfortable too.
I have a pair of Toms that I’ve own for a while. They’re rare and say “Raise IQ Scores Not Sea Levels.” I adore them.
I love red shoes! Toms are great to wear around all the time and they have so many styles now.
All about supporting companies like TOMS that make a serious effort to give back. And – they are stylish and comfortable and cool! And how perfect for fall with the red color!

I thought I had that one special item, but now I think I need these shoes just to be sure. 😉
My combat boots are my favorites. I can’t wait until Fall/Winter comes around for me to wear them. I wear them so much my friends laugh. Luckily enough, they’re still in AMAZING shape which is a shocker. You’d think they look like they went to war by the amount of times I wore them.
Those are really cute shoes. They look ultra comfy which is so important. Might have to grab me some too!
I just got my first pair of Toms in my Stitch Fix this month too! They’re super comfy and so affordable! Not sure why I waited so long to get on board with Toms!
I love Toms too. Obviously the way they run their business is super admirable and Toms are super versatile.
Oh my gosh I love Toms so much!! My second pair was red and I still love them so much!
Oh I have never tried these, but they look so comfortable! My feet seem to hurt all the time after running around after my kids all day long, maybe I need to try these!
