9 Cartoon Character Shoes For Grown-Ups

There's something about a pair of My Little Pony themed shoes that speaks to my heart like no other pair of shoes could. The truth is, growing up is hard. If we can wear a pair of nostalgic, cartoon inspired shoes to make us feel all warm and fuzzy inside, then what's the harm in that? I for one couldn't care less if people think I look childish or immature. I'll be the one having fun in my Disney shoes and eating an ice cream.

Fashion has gone a bit bonkers this fall and I think we should all follow suit. There have been some crazy furry fashions seen on the runways, including Gucci's furry shoes that are insane. Cutesy babydoll dresses are set to be a fashion favorite as well, and when paired with some of the season's quirky shoes, you'll have a super youthful look on your hands. Plus, since the release of live action movie Cinderella earlier in the year, the fashion world has been smitten with Cinderella slippers. Shoes with cartoony prints on them will obviously look totally in line with this nostalgic aesthetic.

So while everyone's wearing Cinderella slippers, add some rad footwear to your shoe collection inspired by your other favorite childhood cartoons and movies.
