I've never done on trend, which I guess is what saved me form going "full grunge" in the '90s.

Things I won't do: chokers, baggy plaid shirts, lucite (or was that the early naughts?), army boots. Not saying other people shouldn't, but I truly burned out on them. Things I will totally do: flowy sweaters, flowy everything, baggy elastic waist pants, lots of black tights, midi skirts. Things I'm on the fence about: bodysuits, mom jeans, rompers. Still considering those. Shorts over tights is in that "on the fence" category as well for me, but you are doing a lot to help me here, since these shorts are so culotte like, they almost qualify as a skirt, thus toning down the more youthful look I remember with winter tights ... But finch shorts or bloomers with tights is ABSOLUTELY the cutest thing on a little kid, no question! Baby Bea convinced me of that!
