One Style Fits All

Erin is in need of some new church clothes. So while at Target, I thought I would pick her up a cute skirt and matching top. No luck. All they had were these type of skirts:

So, I left Target and tried Dillards, Macy's, the Children's Place, Old Navy, Sears, JcPenney, Ross, and a couple other stores that I couldn't name right now. More of the same but in many different colors and textures. What if my daughter doesn't like this style? Aren't there any other choices? Erin doesn't like the style and if you ask me, they are too short anyway (even with leggings.) I think girls think that they can wear tiny shorts and skirts as long as they have leggings underneath. I better not get started on that one. Anyway....

I tried going to second hand stores thinking that maybe they would have some variety in their skirts. No luck there either. Most of the skirts I found at the two places I stopped were short jean skirts.

So, I typed in modest girls clothing in Google hoping to find some good LDS websites selling girls skirts. First thing that came up in my search was Amish and Mennonite, plain and simple clothing. I had to laugh. Do Amish even shop online? Then I thought, maybe an Amish dress would be kinda cute on Erin. Probably keep all those middle school boys away!!!
