Passing on a link to a story about America’s most stylish eight-year-old boy. If you go, make sure to look at the slideshow featuring nine of his looks.
I am really impressed with some of young Arlo’s ensembles and even more impressed with his confidence. But being impressed doesn’t stop there. I am impressed that his parents let him have so much autonomy in this department. Why not?
I’d be hard-pressed to let Sam, our resident eight-year-old boy, carry a cane and wear a top hat to school. Bullies. Someone would get whacked with the cane. Hats aren’t allowed. Velvet knickers aren’t sold at Target.
Today, he is wearing green sweatpants with a blue and brown hoodie and I congratulated myself for biting my tongue.
The clothes battle isn’t worth it, unless an outfit is completely unseasonal.
Wow. I’m lucky to get my kids into a collared shirt on Sunday mornings.

Oh what a cutie. But yeah, you’re right. And I actually have a post in draft titled My Son Wears The Same Thing Every Single Day And I Hope His Teachers Don’t Think I Haven’t Noticed
I just might finish it.

The main thing I’ve required is that the clothes be ironed. I just have a weird thing about wrinkled clothes, even if they’re jeans.

Wow. That’s some serious fashion right there. Go Arlo.
And go Sam! Rock those green sweatpants!

Wow, he really takes fashion seriously! I’m still trying to convince my 7-year-old not to wear white socks with brown shoes — especially dress shoes.

Wow that kid knows what he’s doing! We’ll all be wearing his styles in 15 yrs. I can’t believe he can explain his pairings so clearly!
One of the photos with the sunglasses he looks like Willie Wonka. Johnny depp style.
At least 2 of my kids are sporting the hole in the knee look at school today.
He’s a doll. And he reminds me of my little fella, who wore a bow-tie for several weeks at 5. ha!
