My Bug, My Bug. My Lovely Lady Bug

Remember this?


These adorable Little Ladies Mary Janes by Monkey-Toes were sent as a gift from our friend Katja from Skimbaco Lifestyle.


Not only are they sure to be known as the little lady bug shoes worn by baby Ivy, they have another really neat story behind them involving Tom Cruise and his daughter Suri and Oprah.

That Oprah episode is airing again today and in the spirit of all the giving away of things, Monkey Toes would like to give you a pair, too.
And they aren't just for babies- you can get them in sizes all the way up to 5 years!

Just comment here if you'd like to win a pair! I'll choose one winner at random tonight after midnight CST and announce tomorrow!


If you Tweet or blog about this contest, you will earn an extra entry! Be sure to leave an additional comment letting me know you did!

Contest has ended. Congrats to Noob Mommy!
