Let me preface this post by saying the people at TOMS shoes have no clue who I am, they didn’t send me a pair of shoes to take for a test drive and they probably don’t care much about Hello Dollface.

I knew about TOMS, having seen them on various people in the past, mostly the types to wear hemp clothes and Birkenstocks (I also bought a pair of these and love them). I didn’t think much about them. I didn’t dream of owning a pair or fantasize about outfits being capped off by the shoes. Sometimes I do this. I planned outfits around a pair of red clogs I’m still pining over.

It wasn’t until I saw a hip and funky friend of mine wearing a pair that I began to reconsider owning them. I had a gift card to Nordstrom that was beginning to burn a hole in my pocket and not knowing what else to buy, I purchased these. I love the red which punches up any outfit.

What intrigued me about TOMS was the fact that for every pair of shoes purchased, the company donates a pair to a child in need, called the One for One movement. You can read all about TOMS founder Blake Mycoskie’s mission here. I love it!  TOMS also offers vegan shoes, wedges, boots and other items. They offer them for children which is brilliant since kids need good, well made shoes for their growing feet.

I wore these all day long yesterday in Santa Monica and I am IN LOVE. I usually need a breaking in period with new shoes but not these. I slipped them on at 8 a.m. and didnt take them off until 6p.m. No blisters, no pain. Pure comfort. These will be my new favorite shoes, for sure. I want everyone I know to buy a pair- super comfort and a good cause.

Lately it has been raining a lot in Los Angeles which isn’t exactly the best look for hair! (not to mention your psyche) Depending on the type and style of your hair, there are a few options that I would recommend!  My favorite being a great hat! This way you can look really hip/stylish and not have to give a damn about your hair!  YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hats are all the rage right now so I would suggest going to your local Target, Marshalls, TJ Maxx, H&M, or favorite boutique to find one that fits your style.  Make a day of it!  Play hooky from work or take an extra long lunch to play dress up:)  There are some great hats out there with a wide spectrum of color and design.  A good hat can make your entire ensemble come together.  And the great part is that you DO NOT need to take them off…unless you want to!  Why you ask…because it is fashionable to wear one all day long!

Another option for rainy day hair is a stylish pony tail.  Get that hair up and out of your face!

You can also do braids…just remember to always feel good about how you look…so, take your time and play around with your hats and ponytails…Have fun:)
