Happy Feet - Valentina Shoes for Girls



My oldest daughter just had a growth spurt, and suddenly none of her shoes fit her anymore.  This meant it was time to go shopping for new shoes. Shoes that will hopefully carry us through the summer and into the fall. There are a lot of things I look for when I'm buying my children shoes. They need to be comfortable, durable, and of course, if they are "totally cute" its a big plus for my tween.  At Valentina, you can find  cute shoes in fashionable styles, colors, and designs that young girls can wear all year long. They are super cozy, and  they are available for a fraction of the price of department store brands. But most importantly, they are designed just for tweens. They aren't covered in cartoon characters and glitter like "baby" shoes, but they also don't come in nine inch heels. Valentina is the perfect way to make a fashion statement appropriate for this hard to shop for in between age group.


 My daughter is really into fashion and she loves a good pair of  shoes, so she was thrilled when a pair Valentina's Espadrilles showed up on our doorstep. The pair we received were the Molli Denim design, which are a dark blue with a tan heart at the center. All around the contours of the shoe, is a hemp design that our hippie family just loves.   Since flip flops aren't always the best option for summer activities, like bike riding or trips to the boardwalk, its nice to have a pair of slide on shoes that offer this kind of style and comfort. Because they are snug fitting, they won't fall off, even when their feet are dangling from the Ferris wheel. And since they are so well made, I know my daughter will be able to continue wearing them into the fall when she goes back to school. Only one word of warning. They do run a little on the small side. So to get the most of these shoes for your still growing tween, you might want to go a size higher than you normally do, as their website instructs.


In addition to the Espadrilles, Valentina also offers beautiful ballet flats and sandals in a wide range of styles and colors.  To learn more about Valentina and all they have to offer, you can visit their website.  To keep up with future promos,  be sure to follow them on face book or twitter. If you want to keep your tween in fashionable footwear designed just for her, be sure to visit Valentina Shoes for Girls today.

Specialty shoe stores didn't exist in our world when we were growing up! Girl power--enjoy!

I still lol at referring to them as tweens. I had the same problem growing up. My feet shot out and I required boats for shoes!
