Better steer clear of Kensington if you don't want to see the giant hair bow.
Moving on: Tell us how you feel about smocked dresses and seersucker, OP? What about madrass and Lilly Pulitzer? Or anything out of the Orient Expressed catalog (from NoLa)? |

I don't think it is limited to Catholic schools. They are ubiquitous in NW DC. I have a daughter and think bows are lame. DD has never asked for a bow. |

Agreed - hate the giant bows, the giant headbands with like a big sunflower glued to it. I think it's a weird kind of overcompensating to let others know their child is "definitely a girl," if they may be kind of ambiguous looking.
They just look tacky though. |

| I LOVE bows! My daughter has worn them since the day she was born ( I wore a lilly robe in the hospital, Im sure that makes you gag as well) along with monogramed outfits & smocked dresses. I'm sorry if you find this so offensive, it makes my daughter happy. He favorite part of back to school clothes shopping was picking out new bows. |

i let my 4 year old wear whatever she wants, so today she left with 2 clips with roses on them (pretty big roses) plus a headband, plus a lilac dress with pink leggings and silver shoes.
why do you care, op? |

In Russia, hair bow wears you. |

Okay....I put a two inch-ish bow on my kid to clip her hair out of her eyes. Is that too big by DC standards? She throws a fit if I try to put in pig tails and her hair isn't long enough to braid yet. I have no interest in fighting to hold her down to put in pigtails, so how else would you suggest I keep the hair out of her face short of shaving her head?

Well, just use a metal clip.
But a 2 inch bow is not that big. I think people are responding to the really big bows -- like 4 + inches. |

Between the thread on dog poop, this thread, and the "I hate tattoos" thread, I'm convinced there are way too many people who need something to occupy their time and mind space.
Because really, what normal adult f-ing cares if another person wants to put a giant bow on their baby's head? |
