Simple or Swank: Jelly Shoes

Jelly shoes were "it" when I was in grammar school and they made a comeback when I was 17.

Jelly shoes were "it" when I was in grammar school and they made a comeback when I was 17. I proudly wore the see through, fashionable sandals during both fads, but now that they have hit stores for a third time, I'm passing the torch to my daughter. Though your feet may no longer be fit for lightweight, translucent shoe walking, there are some sassy versions for your kid that will add a bit of bling to her beachwear.

Simple: Circo Adelia Jelly Sandals ($8) are dusted with silver glitter and have a flower shaped buckle and heel strap.
Swank: Kenneth Cole Reaction Kids Woah Jelly ($25) boasts rhinestone and sparkle detailing and a heel strap.

Which do you prefer?

Stained Couture Shoutout: Jelly Fishing

Someday we feel like the driving force in fashion is nostalgia.
Someday we feel like the driving force in fashion is nostalgia. Something or someone is always "coming back" and apparently today's thing is Jellies. Yes we mean plastic shoes you used to rock as a small child. And while you can still get them for cheap, Stained Couture turned us on to designer jellies from Marc Jacobs, Marni, and Givenchy (yes the same Givenchy we pointed out in our Gladiator Shoutout today). And while they come in every hue we happen to be partial to ones in pink because it would go so perfectly with our Malibu Barbie pool set. Don't worry, we threw in a pair from Target too just in case you would prefer to go the proper childhood nostalgia route. Designer Jellies in Pink Marc Jacobs Givenchy Marni Clockwise From 9pm: Marc Jacobs Jelly Mouse Shoes $160, Givenchy Jelly Gladiator $160,Marni Pink Jellies $159 and Target Georgia Pink Jellies $8.99
