I’m a 20-something stay-at-home mother and wife. I have an amazing husband, a beautiful daughter, two loving dogs, and a lazy cat. I wouldn’t change my life for anything! I love to read, listen to music, cook and blog!
This is super interesting. I think it only applies to very little kids though. I don’t want to be judged by what my toddler who has taken to dressing herself chooses to wear, even if I purchased all of the individual pieces.
