toms + grass cutting = bad combination

Last night I cut my grass. I have a tiny, tiny yard so it usually only takes about fifteen minutes. I decided to do it right when I got home from work, so I was still in my "work clothes", which are super casual. I usually wears jeans, comfortable shoes and sweaters. Alas, yesterday was no different. I was wearing my navy TOMS, which probably look awful on me, but they are so comfortable and no one is complimenting my fashion sense on the streets of StL anyway. I kept them on to cut my grass. They are now navy blue with bright green streaks. The same thing happened to my topsiders a few months ago, though they were super beaten up already.

When, oh when, will I learn?
