Treat Dad to Shades and Sunscreen for Father’s Day

by

This June, you’ll find Dad on a park bench, cheering at the baseball game in a stadium seat, or laying back in a poolside lounger. No matter where Dad chills this summer, be sure he is squint and burn-free with a pair of shades and SPF for Father’s Day. Pick a classic shape, like an aviator or wayfarer for extra cool, like these  TOMS Windward Polarized Sunglasses ($149), which also double the amount of good you do on this day, since for every pair of sunglasses purchased, TOMS will provide aid to someone with vision impairments. A little fashion detail is added to each pair with TOM’s signature blue and white stripes at the tips.

Protect him from sun damage with a powerful SPF; we like the VMV Hypoallergenics Armada Sport 70 ($40-$57 for the 3 oz or 6.25 oz), as it’s perfect as an all-terrain, all-activity carryall, goes on lightweight enough to even be rubbed into the hair to prevent scalp burn. Show Dad how pragmatic, and caring you are with these two gift categories that will keep on giving, all summer of 2013 long!

Looking for a way to give back with your holiday gifts this year? Many companies are focused on outreach campaigns, or have added in a component this year to help you give back to the community with your purchases.

TOMS, perhaps one of the most notable companies for its charitable ties, continues its One for One campaign with some new products. Their Classic Stone Watch Cap is a perfect gift for guys and a generous way to endure the cold winter. Also, the Travel Journal is another great gift with its worn leather encasing and leather strap closure. And like the deal with TOMS shoes, the purchase of either of these items will send a pair of shoes to children in need.

FEED, another popular charity brand, working to provide meals for children from around the world. The FEED 2 Kenya bag is a great tote for everyday and provides two children in Kenya with meals for one year. The FEED Wine bag is the perfect hostess gift and will provide a student with five meals at school. There is a variety of other products from accessories to stocking stuffers that can be found on the company’s website.

Tory Burch created the Tory Burch Foundation which helps encourage women entrepreneurs. By purchasing products from the Tory Burch Foundation collection, you can help improve economic opportunities for women and their families. Some of the items include the double wrap logo studded bracelets, available in a variety of colors, as well as the citrus-scented candles, which make for perfect holiday gifts.

Beauty Brands for Sandy is a group of beauty brands who have come together for the Sandy relief effort. Anthony has a variety of new men’s products including body wash, shampoo, and aftershave, making a perfect gift for your man and a way to give back to NYC (Anthony and Sweet Pea Products are donating their products to shelters). Sweet Pea Products are also involved in the movement. They have a variety of baby bath essentials, which make for great gifts to new mothers! Beauty Brands for Sandy provides quality products for people who have been relocated to shelters due to the hurricane to help make their life a little easier during these hard times.

TOMS New Fall 2012 Collection Has Launched!

by

TOMS has quickly become a household name, thanks in part to their signature unisex espadrille-style flat classics, but the new additions this fall are sure to gain acclaim. You’ll find yourself walking through the city streets, grocery store, or office with grace and peace of mind once you slip your feet into the new Desert Wedges, Tomboy Boots and (you guessed it) the spruced up classics in corduroy, alongside new colors and prints.

[Taupe Suede Women’s Desert Wedge, $89]

This fashionable closed toe wedge is ideal for the girl on the go. At $89, you may not have to choose between black, chestnut, and — my personal preference — the taupe, pictured above.

[Kilim Women’s Classic, $54]

The natural shades of foliage in this classic style are reminiscent of a Navajo print or kilim rug, and simply eye catching! Don’t you adore the wool blend inspired by South African textiles? I’m loving this online exclusive pair too! Effortless slipping them on-and-off and durable, these are sure to be a fall staple.

[Black Suede Women’s Tomboy Boot, $99]

Pining for boots? TOMS has you covered. Part tomboy, part military, these boots are tough enough to get you through the colder months.

Remember, with TOMS, it’s “one for one.” Every pair you purchase helps a child in need — a good incentive to get a new pair of shoes (or eyewear, or clothing, as the brand has now expanded its offerings).

TOMS Ballet Flats: Canvas Flats Get a Makeover!

by

Alessandra Burlap Flat, $79

TOMS shoes are synonymous with social consciousness. For every pair you purchase, TOMS gives a new pair of shoes to a child in need. As if such benevolence wasn’t motivation enough, they’ve recently added a line of dainty ballet flats to their collection. In a feminine array of color and prints, TOMS’ 13 new ballet flats are the next mission to compassionate fashion.

The exemplary canvas flats that we all know and love are refined with touches of class and elegance. For example, the Alessandra Burlap Ballet Flats, $79, boast duality in color scheme with heel patch and toe cap accents. Check out the other varieties here.

Shop now for Spring 2012, thank us later.
