[quote=Anonymous]Going from flip sequin shirts and native shoes to buying the basic teen uniform paired with a Stanley cup is going from one extreme to the other. I get why OP does not want her DD to continue wearing flip sequin shirts with kitty cats. Unless a flip sequin shirt is worn by a hyper-confident and unconventional leader type, this of clothing might attract too much negative attention from the mean girls, even if her friend group is fine with it. On the other hand, I doubt her real friends, if they are actually nice girls, care if she is wearing converse/nike/crocs vs some other sneaker. Nor will they exclude her for what type of band shirt she decides to wear. OP just let her pick within reason. It is okay to be cost aware. I would praise my kid for this, not discourage it. Target has the "art class" line that is more geared towards older girls. Old navy and gap also have plenty of tween/teen options in their kids line. Hello Franki is very good for that age as well and they have great sales. She can take a look at more expensive teen clothing catalogs for inspiration even if you don't shop at those stores due to size/cost. But definitely don't pressure her into being too fashion conscious if she doesn't care about that stuff. [/quote]
