Twittermoms challenged bloggers to tell how we give back this holiday season for a chance to win a Stride Rite gift card and a free pair of Robeez Soft Soles!
Robeez is “giving back” by donating a pair of Robeez Soft Soles to K.I.D.S. (Kids in Distressed Situations) with every Robeez Soft Soles purchased through December 23rd. Details.
My favorite Robeez holiday style is these Pastel Pink Fashion Heart Booties…
So how I am personally giving back? Since my extended family is not exchanging present this year due to the economic recession, I am supplying presents for everyone, so we can still enjoy opening presents together.
I am also donating several toys to Toys For Tots that I have gathered through sales throughout the year. How are you giving back?

Some of my favorite shoes I wore in highschool were some red patterned espadrilles. I’ve saved them and even wore them to an 80’s party earlier this year. Now twenty years later, my daughter has hoarded them, and they are practically falling apart.
So I was ecstatic (as was my daughter) when Diego Arnedo, owner of Espadrillestore.ca sent me a pair of these Espadrilles with red stripes to review! Thank you!
All Espadrilles (Alpargatas in Spanish) are entirely hand crafted in the small Spanish town of la Rioja, Spain. These shoes are 100% eco-friendly with Spanish materials and have been produced in the same village for centuries.
Diego also sent me a picture he took this past summer in his village of his aunt actually sewing by hand a pair of red striped espadrilles…
Get your own Classic Espadrilles with red stripes, $29.95.
