A lot of that so called vast choice of girls clothes are ridiculously impractical, don't wash well, and don't get me started on the inappropriate slogans/pictures that many of them have. I often buy plain boys clothes and mix and match them in with 'girls' clothes, just because they wear better and last longer and often are cheaper.

The grass is always greener I guess.

Apparently there was some sort of population boom the year my DD was born because there are *never* any of the thing I want in her size - dozens of the size bigger and smaller but none in the right size.
