pseudo shoes
Most of D’s socks are, you know, white and boring. But not these. They were an impulse purchase by Emily, Caleb’s mom, at what she calls a “used-baby store” — i.e., a consignment shop specializing in maternity/baby/kiddo stuff.
I dig ‘em because they look like something they’re not — in this case, Mary Jane shoes. I’m equally a sucker for those hats that make your kid’s head look like a strawberry or a dog with floppy ears. Stupid, sure, but cute. And way less annoying than those onesies covered in “adult” humor like “I ♥ BOOBS.”
That said, I think the Heelarious line of fake shoes designed to look like high heels is, well, creepy. Especially the leopard-print ones. (Thanks to Jen B for the link.)
Um, glad to have the dubious honor of introducing such horrors as the Heelarious shoes to a wider audience.
