I just discovered the most wonderful and precious shoe line, Livie and Luca. I found them at Baby Wright’s in Manhattan Beach, one of my favorite boutiques for tots, and both my daughters just fell in love. They look handmade with love and has a comfortable flexible rubber sole and a padded Achilles heel for blister protection. They are also made wide for those with lovely padded feet. The designs are whimsical and charming, like they were made by fairies! The designs are very fairy-eque with flowers, butterflies and mushrooms motifs. I was expecting to pay a kings ransom for such gems but they are only $45 at Livie and Luca’s website. I paid $50 at the store but with shipping, it comes out to be the same. The company is committed to using recycled leather, so not only are your tots reducing their environmental footprints with their footprints, you get the benefit of the savings!! Win Win Win for all. The Livie’s Pink Wings Mary Jane with six colorful butterflies for $45 and the Pio Pio Pink, which is the sound birds make in Spanish, has a pink bird with contrasting green base (also comes in other color ways) for $45.50.
