I am in love!




I am totally in love with these boots.




I was looking at the line up for Meredith this year. It is fantastic. My going to this year was dependent on the line up. (I'm sick of average bands and shit weather.) So when I got the news this morning it was great. Jarvis, Animal Collective, Kitty Daisy and Lewis and Sia. So I checked out a few and got stuck on a youtube trail of Sia, stumbling accross a video of her and Fab Moretti spruicking her craft night for TOMSshoes.




I heard of this idea ages ago in some magazine I can't recall. A good natured tourist in Argentina found kids in deperate need of shoes- to prevent injury and increase the distances they were able to walk. So when he got home he started a company where every pair of shoes sold equals one pair of shoes for these kids.




This is the general style they started off with, but now they have a huge range, including my beloved boots.

Months, MONTHS without a post and now all I get is boots. If I hadn't just purchased THE most sensational pair of gold shoes from Noa Noa I'd say you were obsessed and a material girl. (Can you GET irony on line?)
