Umi Shoes from Fiesty, Frugal and Fabulous

Spring is here and summer is on it's way. Could your child use a new pair of sandals or tennis shoes for the hours they will spend playing outside?  Well, Feisty, Frugal and Fabulous is offering one winner a pair of the winner's choice from UMI shoes. I have to say that UMI has a great selection of very cute shoes. What I really like is that they carry shoes in larger sizes. I have a seven and nine year old and I can rarely find cute shoes for them when I am surfing the blog reviews. Most of the companies that are highlighted carry shoes only through the toddler sizes. Not UMI, they have several pair of shoes that go up to a size 4 and others that go up to a size 2.  

Want your chance to win? Head here and leave a comment with the pair of shoes that you would chose if you were the winner (leave the shoe name AND size as she will forward your choice to UMI if you are the winner!). Additional entries are available, for details she the directions on the post.
