Beautiful, European-style shoes at Munchkin et Moi
Shoes -- we cannot live without them so we might as well embrace them! Here in continental Europe we have some very specific styles of shoes for children. I swear you can often recognise a European child by the kind of shoes he/she is wearing! We like brogues, buckled shoes and shoes that get passed ...

La Botte Gardiane
This post made me think of Esther, as we discovered the beautiful shoemaker "La Botte Gardiane" together. These shoes have been around for half a century, but only recently a shop opened up close to me, and we gravitate towards it whenever Esther is in town. The shoes are handmade in the Camargue, a region of ...

Avarcas by Castell
I discovered Castell Avarcas at the last Bubble trade show, and was so attracted to their modern colours -- hip neons, shiny metallics, and even sparkly ones! Castell recently sent a couple pairs for us to road test and I am now even more impressed by the sandals given the great quality.  The Avarcas by ...

These sweet butterfly sandals from Papouelli (formerly known as Papillon) are first on my list. Adorable! Made from perfect quality leather and decorated with a sweet leather butterfly ...

The company has been around in America since 2005 when a group of mum friends got together, compared notes and decided there were not any good-looking children's shoes with flexible soles and affordable prices...so they decided to create their own ...

Pom D'Api sandals
My baby (who turns one next week!!!) has started walking and is completely on the run, chasing after her brothers... It's funny how when they start walking they really go from baby to toddler in the blink of an eye (oh help!).  Anyway, now that she's finally steady on her feet I decided to buy ...

Saltwater sandals
Growing up in Seattle, we spent every summer on the salty, rocky beaches of the Puget Sound... running around in our Saltwater sandals! Every summer we got a new pair -- I can still remember choosing the color.  Saltwater sandals are made to stand up even in salt water (hence the name) -- you can ...

The best way to avoid pre-bought Halloween costumes that aren’t environmentally friendly… make your own! But finding the time is another thing. So why don’t you make superhero leaf masks this year. Go for a walk. Collect leaves. Press them this weekend, and then decorate them in a week or so. What a great way to embrace Autumn and have fun! Totally free too. Your superpower, a creative & cool solution! 🦸‍️ 🦸‍️ 🦸‍️🦸‍️🦸‍️ Link in bio from @soloskates lovely post a few years ago!
