I fear that it will become the norm again. I will buck that trend as well.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I went fall shopping the other day and was very mindful about what I bought.

For instance, I just bought my baby an adorable onsie in pinks and oranges (from hanna andersson  - if you don't already shop there for your kids, especially Eleanor - check it out!)and bought myself a matching dress! I'm sure that's not en vogue. But it makes me happy! :-)</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3889645091925744602/6195421303900223748/comments/default/5916083252996422166'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3889645091925744602/6195421303900223748/comments/default/5916083252996422166'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.thebigpieceofcake.com/2008/10/style-stalled-in-1996-part-ii.html?showComment=1222965120000#c5916083252996422166' title=''/><author><name>Christy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05615149112130152767</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='09585786727642039539'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.thebigpieceofcake.com/2008/10/style-stalled-in-1996-part-ii.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3889645091925744602.post-6195421303900223748' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3889645091925744602/posts/default/6195421303900223748' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3889645091925744602.post-2897862227597085123</id><published>2008-10-02T11:51:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2008-10-02T11:51:00.000-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Connie - I have a love/hate relationship with plai...</title><content type='html'>Connie - I have a love/hate relationship with plaid since I wore it every day of school from third grade through senior year of highschool (well - that's not entirely true - the warm weather skirt for high school was a solid dark green - but winter days are longer right? Then I think I embraced the grunge flannel trend just a little too enthusiastically at the end of college...&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;These days - my winter scarves tend to be the only plaid in my wardrobe. But we'll see. We're a little poor at the moment - so I'm not sure that I'll be buying anything new - but when I do go shopping, I'm not ruling anything out.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3889645091925744602/6195421303900223748/comments/default/2897862227597085123'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3889645091925744602/6195421303900223748/comments/default/2897862227597085123'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.thebigpieceofcake.com/2008/10/style-stalled-in-1996-part-ii.html?showComment=1222962660000#c2897862227597085123' title=''/><author><name>Kate Coveny Hood</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18006589284938683965</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='14635394872309106435'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.thebigpieceofcake.com/2008/10/style-stalled-in-1996-part-ii.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3889645091925744602.post-6195421303900223748' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3889645091925744602/posts/default/6195421303900223748' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3889645091925744602.post-4120781968761202659</id><published>2008-10-02T10:58:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2008-10-02T10:58:00.000-04:00</updated><title type='text'>What a fun read!
