Tom's Wedges

Earlier today, every fashionista's favorite humanitarian brand, Tom's Shoes, launched their take on the summertime classic: the wedge. If you're unfamiliar with Tom's, the business runs on the premise "one for one," meaning that for every pair of shoes purchased, a pair will be given to a child in need. Tom's, a for-profit company, partners with Friends of Tom's ,a non-profit organization, to combat podoconiosis through shoe drops in Haiti, South America, Africa and right here in the USA. Tom's first line of wedges comes in 6 colors, 3 stripes and 3 solids and boasts the tag-line "Heels with Heart." How clever is that?

Yellow Calypso Canvas Wedges ($69)
I don't normally wear yellow, but the model shot makes these shoes look so summery and fun-- I'll have to try them on to make sure they look alright.

Black Calypso Canvas Wedges ($69)
I'm more inclined to stick with basic black. For less than 70 bucks, I think these shoes are a great summertime investment!

If you're not sure about the wedges, pick up a pair of Tom's originals. Here's a pic of me rockin' my favorite pair of Tom's: the light blue Bridgeport linen classics ($48) They're super cute, unbelievably comfortable, and you'd be hardpressed to find an easier way to help those who are less fortunate!

Tomorrow morning I head out of town for a cousin's graduation, so this will be my last post of the week. Have a great weekend!
