Have you been to a playground lately? Have you seen what the kids are wearing?
They’re so much cooler than us.
Drop-crotch skinny jeans. Ironic hipster T-shirts. Harem pants. Tutus with Doc Martens. Neutrals with fluoro. Pom-poms. Metallic sandals. Directional haircuts.
In the average capital city playground, the little people look exactly like big people. Big people who work as digital trend strategists in a warehouse office in Sydney’s Surry Hills.
Excellent example of how the cool kids dress: the lovely Jules Sebastian, with Hudson and Archer.
It isn’t like that over in London’s swanky Kensington, people. You have never seen Prince George in a skinny jean. Or a Converse hi-top. Or, come to think of it, a T-shirt that says ‘I’m a boob man’.
You have never seen Princess Charlotte in pink-rimmed sunnies. Or silver and gold polka dots. Or leopard print. Or (shudder) a bikini.
No, the royal offspring, whose pictures we fawn over with way too infrequent delight, look like they are dressing for another time.

My youngest is 14; my oldest is 24. This is how I dressed them when they were growing up. Their childhood pictures don't look "dated" because I never dressed them in trendy fads. Now, my daughters prefer classic French styles and they all, girls and boys alike, thank me for teaching them the beauty and value of classic styles that never go out of fashion.
My mum is an extremely talented knitter so my boys (3 and 1) are always wearing knitted jumpers, cardigans and vests. Wherever we go people always comment on them. I'm so lucky my boys are always cute and snuggy-warm in their winter woolies ☺
