This dress... goes in... at the waist. Has Children's Place ever seen an actual baby? Does anybody know of a baby that goes in at the waist?
Well, if baby gets cold, she can always put on a shrug. Near as I can tell, the purpose of a shrug in adult women is to emphasize certain parts of the anatomy. I can't tell what the purpose of a shrug is in baby girls. Apparently there are situations where baby shoulders need warming but midriffs don't.
I am going to have to face it some day... I don't make a very good mother of a girl. The asian woman who cut my hair yesterday told me I was "so very lucky - very good luck" to have a boy first, but then also have a girl who I can dress up. For the record, I am an equal-opportunity-dresser-upper. My boy is the preppiest little thing this side of Lake Washington.
A shrug? Is that what it is called? I have yet to see anyone that it looks good on.
I dislike most of the little girl clothing that I see these days. It all seems so stereotypical. When my daughter was little, I most often put her is OskKosh overalls. They were so practical.

yes, my daughter is at that age where you go and try to find her clothing and it borders on the skanky. Yes, I want to buy that that t-shirt that says 'Boys Stink,' SOOOO NOT! I have to buy all her clothes off eBay!

Yes, you are going to have to get over it. You are also going to have to stop looking at little girls clothes in the spring. They're all filled with flowers and ruffles and trim and ribbons and whatever. Either embrace it, in all it's pink fuffery or find OTHER ways to express yourself through your child's wardrobe (or rebel and dress her like a boy.) I also recommend that you do her spring/summer shopping in the late summer/early fall the year prior. It's a color palette thing. Probably some grand conspiracy with all the clothing manufacturers.

Kare - she's now in the babystyle stuff I got in january, and it's got these lovely muted colors, they are great.
And yes, the flowers and frill and lace have been making me sick on a regular basis.
I have been choosing to rebel and dress her "like a boy" for the most part. :-)

It's my son. I put that together a year ago so it doesn't have my daughter in it, I need to redo it.

All people deserve wealthy life and loan or just auto loan would make it better. Because people's freedom depends on money.
