Your Personal Shoe Stylist

So my new fabulous find (thanks to a couple newbies to the area) is ShoeDazzle.com.  It's $39.95 a month (not too shabby) and here's How It Works: You take a short survey so they get a feel for your style, personality and tastes; and EACH month they select 5 shoes for you accordingly.  Then you pick the shoes you want and they ship them to you (free of charge of course).  If you don't like the pair then you can simply return them for another. 

I've always dreamt of a shoe fairy but really??!!  FYI they also have a cute Stylist Corner Blog...

Seriously, Kim Kardashian = Genius Money Maker

You Win Some You Lose Some

If you missed the Men's Hockey Game yesterday between the USA and Canada you missed the BEST GAME EVER.  Canada won and also got their 14th Gold Medal in sudden death over time AFTER the USA scored with 24 seconds left in regulation game.  It was the most historic hockey game in the history of the sport and an AMAZINGLY well played game on both sides.  A HUGE Congrats to both teams!!!!!!  I might even start watching hockey now :)

One For One

Shoes For Tomorrow better known as Tom's Shoes was founded in 2006 by Blake Mycoskie (you may recognize him from The Amazing Race).  The concept is one for one - for each pair of shoes that are purchased one will be donated to a child in need.
Tom's Shoes has given over 400,000 pairs of shoes since 2006 to children in need.  To learn more about the story behind this amazing movement click here and check out this video clip below. 

There are still millions of children without shoes.  Feeling Tomsitis yet?  Yep, me too.
