[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, how do YOU define well dressed and well put together?  Are you talking expensive looking clothes or just clean and matching?[/quote]

OP here. I tend towards classic/preppy so expensive does fit. But I don't think you need to spend a lot on kids clothing to get the desired look. My problem is I think my kids' stuff is a hodge podge of different color palates and styles and I'm not sure I'm doing myself any favors with the haphazard way I shop for them. Wanted to hear what others do who feel like their kids look pulled together every day.[/quote]

Here's a tip: the more patterns you buy, the harder it is to match things. Less is more. None of DD's leggings have patterns, except one. The ONE patterned pair of leggings is worn with a solid shirt. The shirts with images, sayings, patterns are worn with solid pants. I found a great line of shirts at Macy's called Belle de Jour. The t-shirts are thicker, higher quality than the ones at Old Navy, and they fit DD well, plus a slew were on the clearance racks.

[b]I am very, VERY careful with shirts that say anything. Nothing that a pedophile would see as an invitation (sassy, flirt, cutie), and nothing that would get her made fun of by other kids (my mommy loves me, I'm a princess), and nothing that would get her beat up by older tougher kids (eat my dust and cry).

How old is your kid and where do you live?[/quote]

Middle school, but it's automatic at this point. I've been doing this since she was two or so. [/quote]

Oh my poor dear confused PP. You should avoid these sayings because they are tasteless, not because they will *tempt* pedophiles. For God's sake. Pedophiles really don't care what the shirt says!!!
Your stupidity is mind-boggling.
