Our Review of LittleMissMatched Zany Sneakers

I let my daughter pick out a pair of sneakers and she picked what I thought she would: LittleMissMatched Zany Sneakers, which retail for $39.00 and are on sale $23.99. They are pink with silver rhinestones. They are lace up so be aware in case you have a child who does not yet tie their own shoes.

She really likes her new sneakers. She loves the pink and shiny colors! She says they are comfortable. So far they are holding up pretty well, though she is using them for going out sneakers NOT for around the farm.

End of Summer Footwear Shopping

This is a featured post.

Sadly summer is coming to an end soon. I love summer and it’s bittersweet to say good-bye to my favorite season. However, shopping end of summer sales is always fun! That’s about the only good thing about the end of summer, if you ask me.

I love wearing sandles or crocs in the summer time. My feet like to breathe and not be cooped up in tight, enclosed shoes like running shoes or even rubber boots. Hot. Hot. Hot.

When end of summer footwear shopping I look for the best deals for my children. For myself, I have to go by comfort first, with the extra weight I am carrying I need good supportive shoes that will not only support my feet but also my legs and knees. More often than not that means sticking with the same brand that has been working.

It’s easier to shop for children’s footwear, unless it is my older girls. They have varying tastes and one or the other likes something that is bright, colorful and fashionable. Then there is the issue of heel or no heel. I prefer flats, while I have daughters that want to wear heels – my feet hurt just thinking about it. I also like basic looking sandles that will go with everything . I am practical.

My Sandles-edit

I will shop in-store or online for end of summer footwear. I will look at thrift stores but will only buy them if they seem almost new as every person’s feet are shaped differently and who knows how much the inside is worn if the shoes have been well cared for. As you can see from the photo above, my Velcro is no longer sticking well, the straps are getting stretched out and while they are functional, they are no longer very “pretty”.

Where do go for end of summer footwear shopping?

The warmer weather is coming, although it’s taking a little longer here in the Northeast than I’d like.  My toes need to see the sun and start wearing sandals. The first pair of sandals I put on this year was from Sandgrens. Sandgrens is located in Sweden and has been making shoes since 1846.

Sandgrens Sandal Review

sandgrens 4When you first look at them, you would think the wood would make the shoes heavy. Not even close. They are super light and the molded rubber soles gives them a great grip so, you won’t be slipping around.  The heal is a little over 2 1/2 inches high.  The vibrant pink is perfect for any occasion, they can be easily dressed up or dressed down.  These are they type of sandals you pick out first, then coordinate your outfit around them.

I’m amazed how comfortable these sandals are, I’m going to be wearing these all summer.

Being a Swedish shoe they are also in Swedish sizes, you’ll need to use Sandgrens size and fitting guide to find your size. For example, I order size 37 which is a US size 6 1/2 to 7.

I’d start dropping hints for Mother’s Day, if I were you! ;)  Great and comfortable shoes are not always easy to find. Sandgrens gives you both of these fantastic qualities.

New Balance Running Shoes

Faith and Family Reviews received the following product in exchange for writing a review. While we consider it a privilege to receive products to review, our reviews are our honest opinion and thoughts of the product.

Remember this photo?

Old Running Shoes

My husband needed new shoes so I got him some New Balance running shoes to review. New Balance has a proven track record for us. They wear well, they last, they are comfortable and we like the look of them. They are actually one of our favorite shoe brands.

These are the ones I got for him:

Nike Front2
New Balance 940 Optimum Control

Nike Side2

Nike Inside2

Nike Bottom2

Robert says these New Balance running shoes are very comfortable. More comfortable than other shoes he has tried. He’s kind of tough to buy for though. Not to be repetitive, if you remember a previous shoe review he did, but Robert has a high arch so finding a shoe that fits well and accommodates his arch is difficult. We usually cannot buy online, he has to physically be there to try them on. Unless it’s New Balance running shoes because he knows his arch supports will work in them.

He loves his New Balance 940 Optimum Control running shoes!
