Toms

 

While at a girls' lunch over the holidays with some dear old friends one of them received a gift from the other two. The gift was a pair of Tom's shoes.  I told them all I thought they were so cute, but 5'2" and not your ideal weight, does not work well with flats.  

My heart pounds for a good pair of flats, but I know I can't wear them.  It's not a poor self image...it's fact....from the girls here and the experts here.  It's not to say I NEVER wear flats, I just don't put good money into them.   

If I were over 5'5",  I would definitely love a pair of ballet flats from Ferragamo or in about any color of patent from any line. 

Anyhow, I love that I found out Toms are available for kids when I found a pair on the floor at my daughter's dance class.  Perhaps I'll get that bone extension surgery in my legs : ) and peel off some weight just in time for Spring/Summer.  {the ladder is more likely...some days!} 

Until then, I will adore them from a far.  I think the distressed navy or white is really cute paired with a cuffed denim capri as shown here.
