Are they theirs or yours? Children's footwear has taken a very noticeable, giant leap in the fashion footwear department, a step in the right direction if you ask us! Just because they have teeny tiny feet doesn't mean they don't deserve chic footwear, and a lot of brands with lines originally for adults have been creating smaller versions of their popular styles.  Gone are the days of bubble gum pink, patent-leather, sequins and overwrought bows as the reigning styles and details of children's shoes.  Options now include everything from combat boots to sleek metallic rain boots, cork wedges, hardware-adorned, and gladiator styles. Even those on a budget or can't rationalize spending a lot on growing feet can find affordable styles that still maintain a trendy fashion quotient. Below are some of the cutest finds around for kid-os, that mimic the ones that Mommy owns and loves:

Rainboots are a must for kids, especially when splashing in puddles could be considered a hobby! Hunter Boots, $60 at Bloomingdale's  in toddler and child sizes

The gladiator sandal trend doesn't seem to be going anywhere — this simple version in a metallic shade of gold is just right for the playground or a day at the museum. Juicy Couture Charly Grecian Sandal,$75 Bloomingdale's, in child sizes

Childhood can't pass by without a pair of Mary Janes; these go the extra stylish mile with angular trim and crystal accents. Kenneth Cole Reaction Toddlers 'Day Gleam' Mary Janes, $39 at Dillard's
