However, we still keep one dress for dress-up occasions (I will insist the child doesn't wear shorts to a funeral!). DD got to pick it herself, reluctantly, but oh, well. So far she's only worn it twice in two years, it's gotten a big short, so we'll be looking for a replacement soon.
Just my 2 cents.
This!
Maybe not on a daily basis, but at my DD’s 5th grade graduation, I can assure you 95/100 were wearing a dress or skirt.
