Podoconiosis is a debilitating disease that plagues those who walk barefoot in silica-rich soil. We won’t try to start any fights with those supporting the barefoot movement – we all know where that got us last time – but we will mention that Podo is a disease running rampant in many third world countries, where poor families who can’t afford shoes must walk miles and miles each day barefoot. Podo, however, is 100% preventable just by wearing shoes! Want to help stop this senseless disease from affecting others? Join the TOMS Shoes “One For One Movement” when you Shop at TOMSshoes.com!

Georgina Goodman wedding

Originally uploaded by shoedish

The bridesmaid shoe hunt continues. It’s rather unfortunate, really, that we have four months until the wedding, because we’ll be pondering black dress shoes up until the very last minute. You never know what you may find if you just give it time, right? An added bonus to waiting is that something we really love may go on sale. These platform dress sandals from Georgina Goodman are the perfect example. We cannot afford them now and we probably couldn’t afford them at 50% off, 4 months from now, even after having spent only $32 on our dress, but they fit the color scheme and come from one of our favorite designers, so we’ll pretend they’re a possibility until the very last minute. Available at Shobbop.com for $692.
