I am unusual among the women I know in that I'm not into shoes. I've never cared much about how they look, and in recent years all I pretty much wear are tevas, not the most attractive of shoes. Most of the shoes my kids wear come from Payless - and there you get whatever you can find that fits - or my mom gets them for them. So no, I'm not a shoe fiend.
Until now. Today (and today only), Amazon.com is offering brand-name children's shoes for $10. My kids are in total need of shoes, so, of course, I had to go look. I ended up buying 5 pairs - and I have to say, some of them were pretty cute. This is what I got:
The first two are for Camila and the other three for Mika.
These are sort of cute, but as I was looking at them, I came up upon Toms, which apparently is a company that donates part of its proceeds to poor children in Argentina. Of course, something I like. My god, their shoes are soooooooo cute, though, of course, way, way, way beyond my shoe budget. I mean, I feel bad about having spent $50 in 5 pairs of shoes - imagine on one? or on half a pair? Still, they are cute. Here are the ones I liked the most:
but they have other adorable ones. *Sigh*

The TOMS shoes that we bought (pictured above) turned out to be quite low quality. They are more slippers than shoes, the fabric top started to get holes pretty much as soon as we got them and the inside pad came out. Wouldn't buy them again even for $10.
