I never put her in them because they aren't my style! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lelli-kelly-shoes#post-1636095 Thu, 15 May 2014 11:26:51 +0000 teamjse 1636095@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My niece wore these when she was 5 yrs old, she's currently 11 yrs old. She really loved sparkles so it worked for her, but I'm not sure if I would buy them now.</p> <p>The shoes did hold up really well and I don't think any of the beads/designs came off either. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lelli-kelly-shoes#post-1636056 Thu, 15 May 2014 11:16:02 +0000 Mrs.Panda 1636056@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blackbird: This is exactly how I feel about them. So loud and ridiculous that they are actually kind of cute. And you would be surprised how long they lasted, one girl had them until she grew out of them with minimal bead loss. They bead it with some heavy duty fishing line type stuff I think with the anticipation that children are wearing them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lelli-kelly-shoes#post-1636055 Thu, 15 May 2014 11:16:02 +0000 Mrs. Taco 1636055@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I live in FL and never heard of them! But yes, FL does have a bunch of weirdos! :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lelli-kelly-shoes#post-1636050 Thu, 15 May 2014 11:13:48 +0000 swurlygurl 1636050@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never heard of them either. They look kinda Lisa Frank-y to me, which means I kinda like them... haha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lelli-kelly-shoes#post-1636016 Thu, 15 May 2014 11:03:46 +0000 cmomma17 1636016@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Never heard of them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lelli-kelly-shoes#post-1636014 Thu, 15 May 2014 11:02:02 +0000 blackbird 1636014@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They're sort of....so tacky that I like them. They are an intense pair of shoes, but I doubt they have much longevity. Sand would totally ruin them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lelli-kelly-shoes#post-1635998 Thu, 15 May 2014 10:59:49 +0000 Mrs. Grizzly Bear 1635998@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Never heard of them either but they're kinda cool. Would I buy them? Probably not but I can see how they might get ruined quickly and start losing beads. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lelli-kelly-shoes#post-1635973 Thu, 15 May 2014 10:55:59 +0000 Mrs.Panda 1635973@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am genuinely shocked no one has heard of these shoes! Maybe it's a regional thing? Florida does have a bunch of weirdos. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lelli-kelly-shoes#post-1635962 Thu, 15 May 2014 10:53:57 +0000 avivoca 1635962@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never heard of them, but my kid would totally rock shoes like that if I saw them in a store. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lelli-kelly-shoes#post-1635955 Thu, 15 May 2014 10:52:19 +0000 Mamaof2 1635955@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>never heard of them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lelli-kelly-shoes#post-1635953 Thu, 15 May 2014 10:51:48 +0000 swedishfish 1635953@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Never heard of them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lelli-kelly-shoes#post-1635950 Thu, 15 May 2014 10:51:05 +0000 oliviaoblivia 1635950@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have never seen these before. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lelli-kelly-shoes#post-1635949 Thu, 15 May 2014 10:50:29 +0000 Mrs.Panda 1635949@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Are Lelli Kelly's still a thing? I remember a couple of years ago when I worked at the preschool, any kid who was anybody had a pair of these shoes and the designs just got more beaded and crazy as the parents competed with each other. Are these still cool now? I have a friend (actually a few) who is expecting a baby girl and her shower is in 2 weeks. I think they would be cute and different since she's been out of the baby game for a while (and this is her first girl) but I don't want to get her something that would be the equivalent of gifting her a pair of jelly shoes or a slap bracelet.</p> <p>ETA this would not be the only gift I would give her.</p> <p>Here they are for reference:</p> <p>[attach=4435/14/n5mhc5.560x372.useLELLI1.jpg]</p> <p>[attach=4435/14/n5mhc8.600x431.Lelli-Kelli-Sparkly-Shoes1.jpg] </p>
