One for One

Last night we went to view the new Toms Shoe Collection exclusively at Bergdorf Goodman. I have to say this was a great party for such a good cause. It had all my favorites; shoes, Mexican hors d'oeuvres, tequila and socials. The shoes were displayed on top of a ping pong table. I thought it was genius but I would see why later that night. Blake the founder was mobbed by press and fans but we finally got to speak with him. At that moment Linda Fargo walked in and the two of them started to speak. We left them to have their photo op and walked over to view the shoes one more time. When we turned around there was Blake showing Linda the shoes. Linda turned and said hello to David, who instantly introduced me to her. I was star struck. It was like meeting Madonna to me. Then it happened the shoes were all being removed and Blake pick up a ping pong padddle and challenged someone to play him. As we watched him play I was introduced to Scott Harrison of charity:water, another great cause. It was great to see all the support that Blake got from Lauren Bush, David Lauren, Liya Kebede and a ton of others. As we left Bergdorf Goodman to view the SNL holiday windows at Barney's New York we noticed that the UNICEF Snowflake was illuminated just an hour before. New York is getting ready for the holidays and so am I for all the parties to come.

I saw the line-finally at Nimi's last week. I want to get a pair but have to think of the right look. Great cause though. xoxo
