Help! My Ten Year Old Daughter Wants Boots For women

Posted: Oct 27, 2009 |Comments: 0 |

My daughter is at that age where she’s started to make up her mind about everything: how her room is decorated, what she eats for breakfast, what music she likes and, above all, what she wears. She just turned ten and it’s starting to feel like I have a teenager living in the house. I have a few fashion magazines lying around and she picked one up the other day, pointed to an ad for fashion boots and announced that she wanted them. “But Gillian,” I said, you couldn’t fit into those even if your father or I ever agreed to let you out of the house with them -and trust me, we wouldn’t. Those are boots for women, not for little girls.” She wasn’t impressed. My husband works near the mall and goes in at least three or four time a week to walk around on his lunch hour. For years, he’s been picking up clothes for Gillian when they were on sale, and we’ve been squirreling them away in a closet, bringing them out for gifts or when she’s outgrown parts of her current wardrobe. That’s not going to work any longer I’m afraid; not with little miss strong will. I have a feeling that half those clothes are going to end up being donated to charity. And the cute little sneakers he found?  Well, they’re a little far removed from fashion boots, so I have a pretty good idea of how well those are going to go over.

Yesterday, I took the little fashionista shopping with me at the mall. Winter’s fast approaching and it’s time to get the kid equipped for the cold and snow. I thought I was going to have a total battle on my hands, but Gillian found a snowsuit that she deigned to wear; it was a little more than I had been planning to spend (it was a ski outfit she found at a sporting good shop instead of the snowsuit from Walmart I’d envisioned), but we hit a roadblock when it came to boots. She didn’t like any of the kids’ snow boots -they were “too ugly.” The thing is it’s tough to find a kids’ clothing store that sells fashion boots, especially ones suitable for winter use. We retreated home and I looked up shoeocean.com, a web site my girlfriend had mentioned. I was expecting they’d carry boots for women, which of course they did (and hundreds of styles), but they also had a selection of trendy winter and rain boots for little girls. Thank goodness! Gillian had her fashion boots and I had peace of mind.
