The Daily Shoe

In honor of my upcoming trip to Texas, here are some stylish cowgirl boots from my girl, Jessica Simpson. Nevermind that I would never be able to walk in them (do you see that heel?), I think they're adorable.

Yee-Haw!!

So I'm going to Dallas, Texas on Monday. I've been invited, along with the other ladies of MamaLaw, to participate in the American Heart Association's Go Red for a Better U makeover program set to launch in June! It's an exciting opportunity and I can't wait to get started for the simple fact that I could definitely use a kick in the rear to jumpstart my health and fitness routine. I have started going to spinning classes at the gym and have lost 3lbs since last week, so I am glad to be on the right track. Anyway, we're all headed to Dallas on Monday for a health assessment (including a treadmill test - yikes), a photo shoot, video interviews and media training. It sounds like so much fun and I'm totally looking forward to it. Dallas, here I come!

The Daily Shoe: Earth Week

J-41 Footwear is embracing the eco-friendly shoe movement with their vegan Aquarius mesh casual slip-on Mary Janes.

And they come in little people sizes too! (Sorry, couldn't resist).

The Daily Shoe: Earth Week

In honor of Earth Week, I'm going to (try and) bring you shoes that are eco-friendly. If you're a hardcore shoe lover (like me) you might be skeptical of any "green" shoe designer bragging about shoes made of bamboo and recycled burlap. The MINK Shoes Collection will not disappoint. Here is a description of the line:

MINK shoes are custom designed and hand crafted from only the finest quality non-animal products. Natural or scientifically engineered alternatives such as cork, denim, linen, faux fur, and other animal friendly substitutes are employed. Leather, suede, pelts, and skins are never used. MINK Shoes adheres to a strict policy of animal preservation, protection, and safeguarding in its designs. Each shoe is extremely unique and is offered in a very limited production.

And they look great too! So go forth and buy eco-friendly shoes. See...you can actually help the environment by shopping :-)
