Help! DD1 wants "princess" shoes

[BabyBearsMom]

DD1 tells me that she wants princess shoes, which appears to be silver or gold gladiator style sandals. She wears a 9.5 and her shoes must be closed toe or she can't wear them to school (and I don't buy anything that can't be worn to school). I ordered her these http://www.landsend.com/products/girls-delta-play-sandals/id_248840 and she loved them but they only come in whole sizes and the 9 is too small and the 10 is too big. Anyone seen anything like those sandals in a 9.5?

Would something like these stride rite's work? http://www.striderite.com/store/SiteController/striderite/productdetails?catId=cat1530401SR&subCatId=cat1530707SR&&viewall=&subCatId=cat1530707SR&productId=8-137485&stockNumber=CG45693&catId=cat1530401SR&productdisplayName=Stride+Rite+SRT+Preschool+Maybe lle&skuId=***8********CG45693*M095&pageIdentifier=productdetail&catdisplayName=Toddler+Girl&showDefaultOption=true

Sadly no as they "aren't sparkly and princesses need sparkles" which means gold or silver are a necessity

How big is too big? Could the bigger size work well enough? Add a sock maybe?

Payless has the cutest sparkly MJ's - we are on our 4th set of both silver and gold!

[BabyBearsMom]

Those Umis would be perfect but they don't have 9.5. The MJs are cute but I'm looking for something cooler for her toes like a sandal. The too big ones I ordered are way too big. She was tripping in them. The smaller ones were just slightly too tight. This may be impossible.

No, they are awesome! Both my girls wore them with their princess costumes around disney and I bought them each a few more pairs onces we got home.
