Livie & Luca children’s shoes have unveiled 12 vibrant new styles for their Spring/Summer ’10 collection. Inspired by the bright, colorful folk art of Latin America, the collection features playful accents including flowers, birds, apples, and more! Beginning walkers, toddlers, and preschoolers love the kid-friendly construction (specially designed for comfort and preventing stubbed/pinched toes) and modern designs.

I got to sample the Bloom sandals for my 15 month old and OMG they are adorable!  Lime green with a fuchsia leather flower, that are simply too cute for words!  If they were in my size, I’d get a pair for myself!

They seemed to be very well made and the leather is soft…perfect for soft babies skin!

New styles include Bloom, lime green sandals with bright pink flowers, and Haru, featuring a young girl character combined with fun purple piping and magenta leather. Mary Jane, loafer, and sandal styles retail for $45.50 and are now available in an expanded range of sizes, 4 to 13.

Livie & Luca shoes are made of soft leather and environmentally friendly materials and feature a new ultra-flexible sole design with the phrase “think sustainably, recycle your shoes” on the bottom. Livie & Luca is committed to “treading lightly” by using recycled leather that would otherwise be discarded and non-benzene glue.

These whimsical, child-inspired shoes are available at www.livieandluca.com and 150 stores nationwide. Livie & Luca also believes in giving back to children in need, and in partnership with Art for Humanity donates gently-worn shoes to children in Honduras.
