Daisy Roots Shoes

| March 22, 2013

I was contacted a few weeks ago by Daisy Roots and asked if I’d like to review a pair of their beautiful handmade leather shoes. I love supporting British companies so I was very excited when I discovered that Daisy Roots have been making shoes in Northamptonshire since 1995.

After visiting their lovely website my mind was full of delightful little leather shoes and the next step was to make a decision as to which pair I’d like to review. The following morning when Imogen asked for an apple I had my mind made up! I chose a pair of beautifully rich purple leather shoes with green apples and flowers on the front.

Imogen loves her new Daisy Roots leather shoes. They keep her feet cosy and warm on our wooden floors and stop her from slipping when she’s running around and playing. For an active toddler they’re the perfect indoor shoe!

What I love most about Daisy Roots shoes:

  • They have suede anti-slip soles
  • There’s room for growth
  • They’re made from soft, breathable leather
  • They fit perfectly around the ankle and are extremely soft
  • They’re made from eco-friendly leather and are chrome free
  • They’re vegetable dyed so are safe for babies who like to chew everything

They look gorgeous when worn with tights or trousers.

Daisy Roots make leather shoes for babies and toddlers in a variety of sizes from newborn to 4 years old. They’re recommended for indoor and pram use and can be cleaned easily with a damp cloth.

I think they’d make the perfect gift for a baby or child and there’s the option to have your shoes packaged in a gift box. Daisy Roots provide free delivery within the UK.

You can find out more about these beautiful leather shoes for babies and children at Daisy Roots and on Facebook.

Clarks Baby Shoes

Ida Chic in Raspberry Leather

I was brought up in Clarks children’s shoes so I have a special place in my heart for them.

I loved my Clarks Black Patent Leather Party Shoes. And Clarks still make them, all of these years later.

Oh what fun I can have buying shoes for my baby girl!

Imogen’s first pair of Clarks shoes were from their Pre-Walking Baby Shoe Range.

We bought her a pair of pre-walking shoes as soon as she started taking her first steps. We chose the Ida Chic in Raspberry which were a beautiful choice as the colour goes with everything and they look great worn with dresses or trousers.

We found these shoes were really helpful in helping her to cruise the furniture and for out and about when she’d done enough crawling and wanted to stand and take a few steps. Having more stability with these shoes helped to provide the confidence to take further steps. And within a few weeks she was walking by herself!

I found Clarks Pre-Walking Baby Shoes were perfect for at the park, to keep feet warm in cooler weather and to complete an outfit.

Clarks have a beautiful range of Baby Shoes for boys and girls. With everything from patent leather dress up shoes to good old wellies.

When buying baby gifts it can be a little overwhelming, whether you’re a parent or not! Presented with such a vast choice how do you decide which toy or item of clothing to choose?

A great way to make baby gifts stand out is to personalise them. At My 1st Years it’s free to personalise your gifts. Personalised baby gifts allow you to create unique gifts by tailoring the gift for the baby.

My 1st Years has a wonderful selection of baby gifts for baby boys and baby girls. Their range of personalised baby gifts includes baby shoes, clothes, blankets, dressing gowns, towels, foot muffs, toys and more.

Here are some of my favourite baby gifts from My 1st Years.
