You know that moment when you see the kids of a celeb rocking stylish threads? It can be a bit tough, right? I recently spotted images of Zoe and Leo, the kids of a well-known musician, looking effortlessly trendy in cool jackets and funky shoes. Meanwhile, my own 5-year-old was strutting around in an inside-out shirt and some seriously outdated pants, and my 2-year-old? He was decked out in paint-splattered sweatpants and a superhero cape—with no shirt in sight!
I’ve read interviews where Zoe’s mom says she lets her kids choose their outfits, and honestly, I think that’s a fantastic approach. It promotes creativity and self-expression. It’s hard to watch other celebrity kids donning stiff, colorless outfits just because that’s what their mom’s brand is pushing this season. C’mon, let them wear that vibrant tutu if they want!
Now, I’m all for parents picking out clothes for their kids, but my boys are definitely not on board with that. They put up a fight over wearing anything remotely formal long before they could even string a sentence together! I’ve had my share of battles over what they should wear, and I’ve learned to pick my fights wisely. If they want to sport their superhero tees and comfy sweats, then that’s what it is—unless we’re off to a fancy occasion, of course. And yes, I’ve even let my toddler show up to preschool in PJs because, let’s face it, some days just aren’t worth the hassle. And surprise, surprise, he wasn’t the only one in pajamas!
So here’s my advice to all you moms of little ones: take advantage of this time and dress your tiny tots in those cute outfits while you can! Before they start developing their own fashion sense, or worse, become mini trendsetters like Zoe and Leo.
