Rainbow Bright Would be Nauseated.

Yesterday I took my 4 almost 5 year old daughter shopping for her summer wardrobe.

WOW.

That was a pretty interesting time.  I usually don’t let her pick out ANY of her own clothes, but I thought I would let her help this time.  With a few rules…

1. Charaters are for P.J.’s only. (and tennis shoes if I am in a good mood.)

2. No Mini Hooker clothes.  (It makes me crazy to see little girls dressed in things that I wouldn’t let a teenager leave the house in.  It’s just not cute…or appropriate.)

3. Mom has the final say…on everything.

These are a few things I learned.

1. My daugter would wear Hannah Montanna from head to toe if allowed.  I’m lucky we got away with one t-shirt…it could’ve been much worse. (and that does break the character rule..I know, it’s a “play shirt”.)

2.  Jellies are back.. and Why are back?  Those were the worst most uncomfrotable things to come from the 80’s and apparently my daughter needs them.

3. You can never have too many pairs flip flops…and if they have glitter straps you need even more.

4. Red is for boys.

5.  You can never have too many colors in one outfit… (and if it’s rainbow it’s perfect.)

6. Pink Camo is on most of the clothes found at J.C. Penny’s. (thank goodness for mom veto power)

7.  You can never have too many sequins.

8. Don’t even bother asking, the answer is…the pink one.

9. No matter what the outfit, if it comes with accessories you have a fight on your hands. (and I have also decided that girls are born with the ability to accessorise)

10. Girls are expensive!

It’s going to be a very bright and sparkly summer.
