i dont dress my girls so they look pretty but I dress them so they are comfortable.

When DD1 was a baby, I remember having a conversation with one of dh's friends who had 2 girls. He said that he loved that he had 2 'high maintance' girls because it meant that when they got to the dating age, the boy or man who falls for them wil be in love for real....
That comment has stayed with me. But not only do I want them to be comfortable in their own bodies I want them to use their brains and demand the best for themselves. And now that Ive lost my train of thought Ill have to come back later.
Yes I do feel pressure to dress them pretty, to make them fit in...

btw,, I can assure that Im similar to you in the interest in looks and makeup thing,
