So super recently a family member of mine had a baby (AKA babeh).
I've never been one to give a shit about other people's kids, lives, or well anything in that matter. Eh, your second cousin twice removed has had a new baby? Whoopdy friggen doo. However now that it's my sister in law's turn to have a 'babeh' I'm over the moon and ensuring that every possible person that is unfortunate enough of crossing my path, knows about it in a serious of high pitched shrieks and "eeeeeeeee!!!!"s.
Having a new baby in the fam' is a great thing. It's an excuse to buy miniature baby booties, eat that baby food gloop and a proper excuse to watch kids shows. However lately it's had me pondering on what will happen with my kids (it's at least 20 years away so girls, let's all put down our jazz hands and Calm Down!).
As much as I'm going to torture my sister-in-laws poor child into wearing ridiculous babeh outfits, it's such a fine-line between cute kiddy outfits and 'stylish' outfits. Something that can be taken TOO FAR people!!!
A perfect example of suri and the rest of the celebrity clan of children.
Since when has it been cool to dress up a 4 year old with a mega tote and heels?!!
And will this ever happen to my children (once again it's nowhere near the planning so don't go getting ga-ga on me) since I'm in the fashion industry and surounded by fashion 24/7 of my life.
I think it's cute if little girls are in little lace and floral dresses, but when you let your child wear heels and carry a handbag (what can they honestly have to put in it anyway?!) then that is pushing the boundaries.
As if teenagers aren't insufferable enough with their lust over fashion. How much worse will that get if we're putting out children in Sonia Rykiel at 6.
I once worked for a modeling agency helping out with the kids training courses and these 7 year old girls were turning up wearing Louis Vuitton Jeans and Coach handbags?!!!! They were SEVEN!!! I don't even own a Coach handbag!
Eh, not to worry though. I still have YEARS to worry about dressing offspring of my own, and until then I can prop my sister in law's babeh up and out ridiculous hats on him.
Z.xx
