Shoes That Will Keep Up With Your Toddler

By

Ok, toddler shoes. Here’s the thing. Toddlers are crazy people that are always moving non-stop, testing the limits at every turn, and performing acrobatics that you didn’t think were possible. Soooo obviously we need shoes that will keep up with them. Shoes that will provide stability and flexibility and support. Yes I know that’s a tall order, but ya know what? Hush Puppies just launched their new line of shoes with crazy toddlers in mind. It’s called Paw-Flex™ and it’s all kinds of amazing.

Ok full disclosure. Annabelle and I were heading to the pumpkin patch, and I thought, I’ll put her in her new shoes and maybe I’ll be able to get some cute photos. Well, I had nooooo idea that Annabelle would be putting these shoes to the test. Suddenly the pumpkin patch and trees turned into her personal play gym. And normally in these situations, I would be at her side, catching her constantly as she slipped off whatever precarious object she thought she needed to climb on that given day. Buuuut she wasn’t slipping! This girl was literally swinging from pumpkin to pumpkin and had great traction with these new Hush Puppies Paw-Flex™ shoes.

The pair on Annabelle are called Bella Paw-Flex™ Mary Jane.

They have a Paw-GripTM bottom, Multi-directional Paw-FlexTM technology, contoured pup-cup heel, memory foam comfort footbed, and easy on, stay on hook & loop closure! All amazing things to find in a kids shoe.

Oh, and can we talk about how typically when it  comes to kids shoes we are forced to choose between form or function, aka, good traction and support usually come in a not so pretty package. Well they have sooo many cute styles in this new Paw-Flex™ line. For example, my jaw just dropped when I saw these silver rockstar booties. I mean how cute would Annabelle and a Josephine look in a pair of those, especially with winter coming!!!!

Anyway definitely go give Hush Puppies a look, because goodness gracious at the rate that these kids of ours grow, we are always needing new shoes!

Mom Suit!

Beach House Swimsuit

Mom Suit!!! And one that’s cute and actually stays in place when chasing babes! I could do cartwheels in this thing (please note I actually can’t do cartwheels, never have been able to, even despite my older sister’s attempt to teach me when we were little …. imagine a giraffe trying to do one and that’s me 🦒, frankly it’s kinda a sore subject and I don’t know why I brought it up 😢) moving on, I absolutely love this swimsuit by @beachhouseswim it’s sooo well made, comfortable, stylish, and dare I say a bit sexy while still having full coverage so things stay put when I’m contorting in all sorts of ways while playing poolside with Annabelle and Josephine.

Mommy & Me Swimsuits!!!

By

Well, I’m not sure if there is anything cuter than matching Mommy & Me swimsuits!

My absolute favorite line for Mommy & Me suits is Red Dolly Swimwear. They have adults, kids, and baby suits that all come in matching patterns. I also can’t help but loooove the style and aesthetic of the suits for 2 reasons: One, the retro style is just damn cute and playful, and Two: I adore high waisted bikinis. As a mama we all come in different shapes and sizes, and I think this high waisted style is just so flattering for all mama shapes. No matter if you are slender but soft in the middle or lucky enough to have some curves, it works and looks good on all body types. I also think having a bit more coverage when chasing toddles and carrying babies that tend to land you in compromising poses at times is a good thing! 😉

Yep, that’s my girl, in allllll her nose picking glory!

And here is another one of their swimsuits in all black, kinda a must have in your swimsuit wardrobe!

You can check them out on Instagram too…. You definitely won’t be disappointed with their style, fit, comfort, and quality! Red Dolly Swimwear

I’m not wearing leggings today, it’s a miracle! Buuuut these jeans might as well be leggings they are so stretchy and comfy. They are from @shopfreegirl  It’s a new online boutique owned by a mama of 4, that is more than willing to help suggest styles for you based on your body type and lifestyle! She steered me towards these high waisted, stretchy jeans, that I am in looooove with.

And even though they are already well priced, she still gave me a code to share with you all to get 25% off! Use Code: shopwithrosie 💕👖
