[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was very much into insisting that my kid had a variety of outfits to wear.

[b]But when she got into this phase, she insisted on rotating through the same two or three outfits every day. But that was on her to keep them clean and washed. in fact, she wore the leggings so much that the “price per wear” ended up being  low, so it actually made it worth it; instead of having to buy five or six pairs of jeans, shorts, or leggings for $35 a pair she wore the $100 Lululemons (for example).[/b]

We do like some previous PP‘s, and give our kid an allowance. It’s the same money that I would spend on clothes, but I bite my tongue and let her do what she wants with it. I still buy shoes - a pair at the beginning of the year, around Christmastime, and in the spring. But my kids’ foot sized isn’t growing any bigger, so I am OK spending a substantial amount of money on footweat. One, because your feet are everything, (2) she wears the same sneakers with every type of outfit, even to homecoming, And (3) she’ll have them forever.[/quote]

I'm glad you let her make this choice. I'm the pp who wore my Guess jeans minimum 3 times per week. I was so much happier wearing those jeans nonstop rather than rotating through 3 pairs of cheaper jeans that I didn't even want. Even my brother who tormented me admitted that it was a good choice because my cost per wear was so low. [/quote]
