Can you put yourself in the place of a thirteen year old girl and dress her fashionably but not inappropriately? I've been fashion challenged my entire life; I don't feel at all adequate at advising my daughter. She doesn't like to stand out and has a daily wardrobe of layered t-shirts/camis and jeans. She's happy with that look and seems to do well with it. However, she has a few school events and trips coming up and the growing trend seems to be to demand no jeans, etc. Many of the fashionable girls opt for super short skirts. I don't think that will be happening as much since the school is trying to clamp down on it. I'm not sure that would work on my daughter anyway.
So - what type of outfit would you suggest to a 13 year old that is curvy and tall for her age? She doesn't look 13 but she is 13. She is not a girly girl but she does like makeup/nail stuff. I've tried the miniskirt with leggings look and it doesn't seem to work well on her. She's not a straight or lanky body type and it makes her bottom half look squat and blocky. Long skirts seem too old for her. Dress pants also feel matron-ish - even to me. HELP!
Someone around here must have been a cool kid.
