Where Preppy meets Crunchy
Biff? Yes, Buffy? Look at these darling shoes, wouldn't they be super for Skip?

Okay, that's probably not a conversation that will go on in your house, but it's hard to suppress your inner prep when you see the madras uppers of the new Morgan and Milo Plaid sneakers spotted at Moxie Kids. They're relatively easy to slide on (the eyelets are for show) and a super-cute way to dip a toe (heh) into the plaid trend that's still here this spring.

(And, if you like your preppy with a healthy helping of irony like I do, pair it with the Yong Dragon Graphic t-shirt.)

On the other side of the fashion fence, the Morgan and Milo Woodstock Mary Jane is perfect for your little beatnik. The styling feels spring dress-ready, and they're made of organic fabric and ECOvulc rubber--I'm not exactly sure what it is, but I know it's lightweight, slip resistant and, if I had to guess, better for the environment. -Betsy
