Suri Cruise Helps Local Mom Make Some Serious Cash

Suri Cruise's favorite ladybug shoes

Can any of us forget Oprah’s love-fest in Telluride last month when she interviewed Tom Cruise on the 25th anniversary of his break-out role in Risky Business?
 
Well, one Aurora mom, Jenny Ford, isn’t soon to forget. This is because Tom’s appearance on Oprah just very well may have been Ford’s break-out role as well.
 
When Oprah walked into Tom’s Telluride digs, she commented on Suri’s ladybug shoes, which Tom quipped by saying they were, “Suri’s favorite ladybug shoes.”
 
The shoes in discussion are made by a local company owned by Ford called, Monkey-Toes.
 
Ford says she wasn’t even watching the show that day but was suddenly floored when her step-mom called her to tell her that the shoes were on – gasp! – Oprah.
 
Ford told CE that she gifted Suri the Little Ladies Mary Janes (pictured) back in December when she found out the TomKat clan would be spending the holidays in Telluride. 
“We had no knowledge of them receiving them let alone that they became Suri’s favorite ladybug shoes,” says Ford.
Since the show, life has been sweet for this local mom of two, who is now a pseudo-celebrity herself. Ford says media are actually calling her and Monkey-Toes have even been featured in Life and Style Weekly magazine as part of Suri’s $350,000 wardrobe.
