This is probably a bit more colorful than I usually wear, but for some reason this dress is speaking to me.  I mean… not for Prom. I’m a little old for that.

I’ve about had it.

Let me make this pretty damn clear to you - little boys wear clothes too.  They sleep in rooms, and we (by we I mean their parents/family/siblings, etc.) buy them gifts as well.

So, how about taking your heads out of the 50’s and realizing that parents of little boys like getting outfit ideas for little boys too.  We want our little guys to have happy cheerful rooms - so share some ideas with us… Unless you are assuming that I want my 7 year old son to have a pretty, pretty princess room!  I want some gift ideas for my tween and teen BOYS… or is that too much to ask?

Do you know how many times I have looked at a magazine in August and seen all the back to school outfit suggestions for kids?  Know the ratio of girl outfits:boy outfits?  At LEAST 5:1.  Why is that?

I was looking at one of my favorite magazines a few months ago (yeah, Better Homes and Gardens I’m talking to you) and they did a spread on kids bedrooms - 5 girls rooms, ONE for boys… and it wasn’t even boyish. It was more neutral!  

I get more suggestions for my puppies than I do for my boys!

H&M - some cool clothes, certainly cheap clothes… but totally sexist!  Not only is the majority of the HUGE stores near us (I mean huge… like Walmart sized!) mostly women’s clothing, but the stuff they have for men is obviously made for men with bird chests and no penises!  (oh, well… maybe men that LIKE everyone to see their junk will like the pants.)

I really like Land’s End.  Great place for basics - but why does their ‘regular’ catalog have 120 pages of stuff for women, and like 15 for men?  They devote more space to their camping gear.  I know, I know… they have a separate catalog for men.. .but they don’t send it to ya unless you ask.  Even IF you order men’s clothing from them!

Which is why I love Target.  They devote equal space to men’s and women’s clothing - I know… I measured!  They also do the same for Boy’s and Girl’s clothing.  Go Target!  Way to NOT be sexist.  That’s why I love ya and spend so much money there.  Well, it’s one of the many reasons…

Ok, this so isn’t my family, but PAJAMAS!  Who doesn’t love a cozy, comfy pair?  I will be getting all the kids ‘loungewear’ for Christmas.  Not traditional pajamas, but comfy, soft pants and a warm henley to wear on lazy days.

“Like a shooting star, I will go the distance. I will search the world, I will face it’s harms. I don’t care how far, I can go the distance….til I find my heroes welcome.”

This is just a gorgeous dress!  What more can I say?
Where can I find this?  I love this entire outfit!
