Today is Day 2 of the TOMS Shoes Vagabond Tour. Started out yesterday in Santa Monica and 7 hours later we were parked out in front of a friend’s house in Tucson. Since we have to get to the southeast part of the US, our first few days will be all about driving. We leave [...]

What did we do Day 1? Well besides crying and saying goodbye to our wonderful TOMS Vagabond family… we drove through the desert. A very hot, dry, HOT, barren desert. Welcome to Arizona.

One of my favorite things thus far, is being a part of “all staff” meetings where we find out exciting company news/events/meet new people. I love watching the team come together, from the Big Shoes to Sole(searching) Interns, [...]

I know a lot of people think their job is mundane, often checking the time to see when the 8 hour work day is over but at TOMS… never! With the vagabond US tour kicking off and the mass amounts of events and plannings in the marketing department, work is busy busy busy. and i [...]
