Day 5: A favorite pair of shoes
This topic is difficult for me. I have several pairs of shoes that I adore. Shoes and t-shirts are probably my favorite wardrobe accessory in the world, meaning that I have a lot of them... and I don't really have a favorite pair of shoes.
Chuck Taylors
Out of all of my shoes, I think I have the most pairs of Converse. Many of them were gifts. I love Chucks because they express my personality better than any shoes. I love the different colors and styles. I even have a pair of "baby" Chucks hanging from the mirror of my car. My favorite pair would have to be a pair of lo-top black Converse. They're very comfortable and have practically molded to my foot. I wear a lot of black with my clothes, so they go with nearly every outfit I own.
TOMS
I love TOMS because they are one-for-one. With each pair of TOMS you buy, they'll donate a pair to a child without shoes. These are also comfortable and lightweight. I have two pair. I would definitely recommend that you buy a pair of TOMS and help provide shoes for poverty-stricken kids. I wrote a review of these shoes on an earlier blog entry. I also celebrate TOMS Day Without Shoes.
Old Navy flip flops
I wear these all the time in the summer. I probably have a million pairs. Not really, but I have all of the basic colors. I'm not a big fan of the crazy designs. What I do sometimes though is mix and match. If I'm wearing a shirt that is red, white, and blue, I'll wear one red flip flop and one blue flip flop. They're about as comfortable as flip flops get, and $2.50 a piece. I've gotta say, if you're going to buy flip flops, you need to buy them from Old Navy. My favorite pair of flip flops is this latest year's style. They are shiny and a dark gray. They go with nearly everything I own, and they're very comfortable. I wear them all the time.
Rocket Dogs
I got my first pair of these with this new school year. They're black and white and very comfortable. They actually look good on me, while most "flat-like" shoes don't. I'm satisfied with them so far. I think they're cute. They match several of my outfits, and they can pull off both the casual and the cute look. I can wear them with shorts, jeans, or a skirt!
Potato Shoes
I got my Birkinstock potato shoes a couple of years ago. They're the perfect shoes for if you simply feel like relaxing and looking casual. I love to wear them in the winter with fuzzy socks. They keep me warm. Potato shoes have a lot of knock off brands as well, but I've heard they aren't as comfortable. I love my potato shoes, even though they're not very attractive. I wear them a lot during the cold months. I've never had any complaints with them.

Day 4: A favorite quote
burden of people screaming and falling at my feet. I don't want to walk down the street and have everyone recognize me and cry out my name. I want to leave a different kind of legacy. I want to do something that people remember... for the good, not for the bad. Maybe I'll write a book that will soften the hearts of millions. Perhaps I'll help end world hunger. Perhaps I'll help to change lives for Jesus Christ. Perhaps I'll be a part of all three of these things.
