    Honestly, I'd have my girl wearing this as a tween! I love all of these pieces... I seriously hope that our baby on the way is a girl so I can have a girly girl Embarrassed

    What about it seems out of touch?  DD is still very much a jeans and tshirt girl but the layering stuff, tanks, hoodies, and the scarves are definitely something she wears.

    I love some of those pieces but I think most tweens are into aeropostale, American Eagle, 77 those kinds of places...

    It just seems so grown up compared to the few tweens I know.  I do not mean grown up in a bad way, it is nice but like icanhardlywait said, most of the kids I know this age are more into Aero type clothes, jeans and t-shirts that have writing or designs on it.  But then again I don't know many kids this age and the few I know are very casual and this would seem "fancy" to them.

    Those are adorable! I am pretty sure my niece who is a tween would totally wear that.

    It's way better than the majority of peace symbol crap that is everywhere.

    That's true!  Some if it is too dressy for DD.  She's not a fan of button downs or too much lace.

    That link didn't lead anywhere for me, but is this what you're talking about?

    If so, I agree.

    As a parent, I'd love to have my daughter wearing some of the better pieces, but I just don't see too many girls dressing like this for their everyday wear.

    Stay at home mom to a house of boys: two amazing stepsons, 12 and 9, and our 4 year old.
