DIY fashionAs a teenager I went to the Venice Carnival. I made a mask out of a paper plate, got a metal coathanger and bent it into horns around my head and draped a black tshirt over that. At the time I thought I looked really cool, but thinking it over...
Tell us about your own oh-so-cool fashion innovations.

Lenient parents*This isn't really a disaster, since she was only 2 and thought she looked great...
I trod up the stairs at my daughter's crap daycare center (the manager got caught doing identity theft and embezelling a few years later) and came upon a vision of lovliness: Emily had on a clown suit, plastic Sponge-Bob sunglasses, bunny slippers forced into a pair of baby-Birkenstock sandals and a big shit-eating grin.
I said, "Hey, honey, did you dress yourself this morning?"
She nodded, proud of her accomplishment.
* it sounds like I disapprove-I don't. Fighting with children over what they'll wear is a stupid waste of time. I've let my kid walk to school in a foot of snow without a coat when he insists he's not cold. He freezes his ass off and doesn't argue with me the next time. Simple.
