Miss Oatmeal's Picture
Miss Oatmeal, Fresno, CA Age and Occupation: 25, Medical Device Sales Representative Fiance's Age and Occupation: 28, Police Officer/Captain in the US Army Engagement Date: February 16, 2010 Wedding Date: May 2011 Venue: Private Residence, Fresno About Me: I am a toast-loving, list-making, occasionally crazy California girl getting dangerously close to marrying her crime-fighting, patient, man's man fiancé. I’ve never left our hometown of Clovis, CA, I love Anthropologie so much it almost hurts, appreciate promptness, love that our 4lb. Chihuahua, Murphy, smells like Fritos, am irritated by windshield wipers that move too fast for the amount of rain, love me some cold weather, have an unhealthy obsession with boots, and wholeheartedly think that my family is everything. Mr. Oatmeal is, oddly enough, my brother's best friend. He's also the best thing that's ever happened to me, and together we are planning a vintage chic, backyard, spring wedding with a few nontraditional touches while trying to keep up with our crazy lives.
About Miss Oatmeal

One for One

January 21st, 2011 @ 11:04 am by Miss Oatmeal

Toms. Have you heard of them? I have five pairs of these darling shoes + one T-shirt.

You see, I just don’t feel bad about buying anything from this awesome company because of their how they operate. And bonus, Mr. Oatmeal, who is frugal beyond belief, doesn’t mind the money spent there either. So they MUST be a great company!

I love that. I love everything about that. I also wear Toms nearly every day, so I’m getting my money’s worth AND helping out some great kids in the process. I was just perusing their site, and now I’m wondering if I can add a couple things to my birthday wish list.

Oh, this is a wedding blog? That’s right. Well, if I hadn’t spent so much moola on my wedding shoes (you’ll hear about this later, as my shoes deserve their very own post), I’d probably change into these gems for the reception.

So, have you heard of Toms? And if so, are you as completely obsessed with this fantastic company as I am?

I love the company; I just wished they had a different shoe design! The style just isn’t quite my thing. But it makes me happy whenever I see anyone wearing them.

I would get them as reception-change shoes anyway! I spent way too much on my wedding shoes, but I still know they will hurt my feet after several hours of standing in them for ceremony and pictures.

Especially since Toms is a brand you already love, you know that you’ll wear these again. Might as well get them as a backup just in case so you won’t have dirty feet at the reception! (I just got prom flashbacks)

LOVE TOMS! I’m currently considering a pair of their wrap around boots, but it’s -1 degrees in Chicago today (legit), so my toes are in hiding and not letting me wear my canvas shoes :( Can’t wait to hear about your wedding shoes!!

I LOVE TOMS! I live in them. I have the T-shirts and a bunch of different style shoes. Everyone else wears flip flops all summer I wear Toms. Last year I even got a Toms tan. :) I LOVE LOVE LOVE them!

Any company that does good for others less fortunate interests me. I love that you can buy a pair of really cute shoes and know that a child in need will benefit from it. Who knew shopping could be so rewarding? A friend of mine did change into the glittery silver Toms for her reception and they looked great. Also all the Groomsmen were wearing them as well.

One of the photographers blogs I regularly check/stalk shot a wedding where the bride worked for Toms and wore Toms that were crocheted and almost look like lace or dolies. They are being released in Spring 2011, but you can see the picture off the blog here: http://www.mikelarson.com/blog/2010/12/highlights-rainy-day-wedding-dusin-chelsea/

I looove them and the would look so cute with a summer sundress after the wedding!!

Um yeah I LOVE TOMS! Love them so much I have 4 pair and they all stay in my car so I can change into what ever pair matches my outfit that day. My first pair was the sparkley silver ones, my fiance bought them for me on the day he proposed! I love them! I love them so much that I will probably be gifting them to my maids for the wedding.

I love Toms, but I don’t yet own any. My SO has a pair and he’s a fan.

I have those glittery ones! I love them so much. I never wear heels, and so I wore those for practically every holiday party!

I love how Tom’s are becoming a huge wedding shoe trend! They are the new colored shoe! There are so many options for Toms, so comfy, why not? :)
