Kids as a Fashion Accesorry

As a father of two 5-year-olds I'm fairly new to this parenting thing. However, one observation I have made is that it's really hard not to impose your own fears and in-securities on your kids.

Hence, I had to chuckle when I read David Brook's commentary:

I mean, don’t today’s much-discussed hipster parents notice that their claims to rebellious individuality are undercut by the fact that they are fascistically turning their children into miniature reproductions of their hipper-than-thou selves? Don’t they observe that with their inevitable hummus snacks, their pastel-free wardrobes, their unearned sense of superiority and their abusively pretentious children’s names like Anouschka and Elijah, they are displaying a degree of conformity that makes your average suburban cul-de-sac look like Renaissance Florence?

Like their parents who embarrassed them by yelling and screaming at their little league games a generation ago, many of today's parents are living through their kids as little fashionista.

As a dad, one thing I'm certain of is that 5 year old kids don't really care what label they have on their clothes or what they T-shirt says. As my son Harry keeps asking me, "What's my t-shirt say?" Heck, they can't even read yet!

I have a 5 year old and a 3 year old. Can totally relate. Only they are "hipper" than I. The older one though has learned more about labels and brands that I have over the last few years.

I really like your title on this one.

Yes, my kids are my fashion accessory! I dress them in matching outfits and they have more clothes then I do. But everywhere I go mommies scream "OMG, this is latest baby Lulu!!!". Others that less aware of boutique brands just say "Ohhhh, so cute!" I LOVE it!!!!!

I had never heard of Missoni until I saw some Twitter activity today, so I, too, went to check out. Our roietacn was the same: So 70 s and stripe-y (my turn to question whether a word I'm using is a real word). Don't worry about being out of it because you're a single mom. I'm just single and hadn't heard anything at all.Tammy recently posted..
