Fashion?

What pop star has made these all the rage?

At least my girls aren't wearing them with the Playboy Logo.

As long as their undies and body parts aren't on display, I have no problems with those.

I remember them from about 5 years ago.
They're kinda silly, but not offensive.

Looks like something I would have worn in Jr High & High School.

I haven't seen those here - the high school crowd's a little different, though. They're huge on the regular and regular high top Converse.

Speaking of fashion, Em informed me that her former third grade teacher is one of the few remaining on some show "Fashion Star" - basically a reality TV for budding fashion designers. Very cool. She's sold a lot of stuff to Saks, etc., through this show.

I don't have a problem with them - just wondering why suddenly 4 of my girls are sporting them.

Makes me think of the Doc Martins the punks and goths wear.

My almost-14-yr-old daughter's been wearing a pair exactly like that for about the last year. She's grown out of them now and wants new ones. Will someone tell these kids to please stop growing?

My 16 year old has finally been in the same size shoes for almost 2 years. It stops soon.

You can tell her, "get a job (babysitting/yardwork) and pay for them yourself". It doesn't stop them growing but it teaches them a lot of things and helps your wallet too.
