But most of the ones you see in thrift stores were bought for a wedding, or for Easter, or worn to church/temple/mosque like 4 times and then grown out of. . . . they usually look brand new. At one point she had mary janes in red, black and white :) She's a well dressed little girl.

I have a steel tape which lives in my purse and I take every measurement that I can before I ever try anything on in the fitting room.<br/><br/>And I totally agree that thrift stores are the only place to buy growing girls dress shoes. Athletic shoes - never! I even do that with my own clothes. I have a steel tape which lives in my purse and I take every measurement that I can before I ever try anything on in the fitting room.

I love to go garage sales, but I have never thought of writing down all the sizes of everyone. I alway think I can "remember". ha ha ha...you can bet I'll be writing them down now. Thanks again!
