Brown is In

I have been trying to remember back to my impression of the color brown when I was in grade school, high school, and even my young adult years. I don't remember it ever being considered an appealing apparel color choice at any one of those stages. OK so maybe my early grade school days were still tainted with the remains of the 70's. It seems I vaguely remember seeing brown plaid polyester pants or suits, more for the male population.

I've come to appreciate brown as a color choice in the girls toddler sections more and more. I spend a great deal of time, money (another stock market tip - invest in Proctor & Gamble and Dial Corp.) and effort attempting to remove signs of Chloe's daily living from her non-brown clothing.

I had to laugh as I folded and put away her laundry as I discovered that nearly half of her shirts are brown. For the time being, I don't feel inclined to implement in variation either. I've discovered that brown shirts prove themselves exceptionally on the days when dad is home.

You know, Madi actually looks good in brown, and now that she's coming out of "I'll only wear pink or purple" phase, maybe we'll try some!
