Photo Hunters: Shoes

This week's Photo Hunters theme is Shoes.



Every time she is invited to a party, The Pea asks me if she can wear these shoes. They were a hand-me-down from a young cousin of mine; I wouldn't have chosen them for her if I had seen them in a store -- they're just too costly and impractical. Call me old-fashioned, but I just think letting a six-year-old totter around in 1.5 inch heels is inappropriate and dangerous. But The Pea adores them - and what girl wouldn't? And I have to admit, they are cute. I'm sure Minnie Mouse would agree with me too.

They are adorable in a Disney sort of way. :) Great choice for the theme, and have a wonderful weekend!

my daughter has a pair similar to these and she calls them her princess shoes. She wants to wear them all the time!! Great photo.

Great shoes but I do have to agree with you. I also don't think that letting a young girl wear those or any high heel shoes (for that age) would be good.

But they sure are cute!!!

I love polka dots. Those are the cutest shoes that only a six-year old would appreciate. Minnie would be jealous. Cute photo. Happy Hunting!!

Yes, definitely not practical for a six-year old to wear high heels. But they sure want to be like Mom. Maybe that's why she wants to wear them.

am so sure they look adorable on The Pea! like you, though, i think kids wearing high-heeled shoes (i.5" is high enough for me, lol) is a no-no. But, i think it's ok for special occasions. :)
enjoy the weekend!

They remind me of something out of a Dr. Suess book. Was it "Put Me in the Zoo" where they were all sorts of spots on things??

Yeah, I wouldn't have chosen it if it were in a store... But kids nowadays have a very interesting fashion sense.

Yes, they are a bit minnie-mouseish, but I am sure she feels like a princess when she wears them!
Adorable.

Oh, I think those shoes are adorable for a young girl. I'm sure she stands out in a crowd when she is wearing those. Very nice!

I think they are very fetching but not that I would wear similar. I would get funny looks at work!

Karen said...

I can see why she loves them! Very girly-girl!

Meenie would love those shoes! As for impractical shoes, yup have those. My In-Laws love buying them impractical shoes. I wish they would by some nice sneakers once in while instead of glitter covered shoes :P

Daisy said...

I think those are the cutest girly shoes ever!

Those ARE too precious. What 6 year old wouldn't love them?

Lynn said...

I have to agree with you on all counts. Heels are not appropriate for young kids because it will affect their posture according to my pedia. And dangerous, yes. The shoes though are cute, dainty.

I was trying to figure out where I had seen these shoes... and then you mentioned Minnie and voila... there you have it. Yes, Mickey's lady mouse friend would definitely like these!
