Cool Girl Clothes

Finding cool girl clothes may sound easier than it actually is. What may be cool to you runs a strong risk of being uncool to your daughter, so use the tips and recommendations below to find something you both can agree on.

The term "cool" often refers to something that is widely accepted by a peer group, and able to either stand out in an acceptable way or blend in easily with the "in" crowd. Girls begin worrying about appearance at an early age, as you may have already observed watching your daughter shop through her section of your local department store. As they become preteens, girls become even more aware of the way they look, and want to look cool for school, church youth group, birthday parties, and anywhere else they will encounter other girls their age. Finding a cool outfit simply involves finding what is currently trendy for girls in the age group of your daughter, and narrowing it down to those trends that are flattering on her individual body. Skinny jeans and peasant tops do not look the same on every body shape, so it’s important to side with styles that are not only popular, but are flattering as well. This can sometimes be a battle, as there are instances where a child would rather just purchase whatever their friends have, rather than worry about what looks good for them personally.

To find cool girl clothes, you have to start by going to the right stores. Ask your daughter, her friends, and even the moms of her close friends to find out where they like to shop. Chances are, they will mention one of the following stores, depending on their age group:

• Justice – this store is incessantly popular with the tween set, packed full of trendy duds and accessories to finish off a new outfit. You can also find great gift ideas here like cell phone extras, bedroom décor and trendy toys.
• Gap – be it the regular Gap for high schoolers, or Gap Kids for those slightly younger, Gap is always in style and often a trend setter.
• Old Navy – Old Navy is affiliated with Gap, and is slightly less expensive.
• Pumpkin Patch – totally trendy toddler girl clothes and items for grade schoolers, this store is full of fashion imports from down under that both kids and parents will love.
• P.S. – the kids’ version of Aeropostale. Younger siblings can emulate their teen sisters with this store just for them.
• Styles for Less – popular with tweens and teens because it is very inexpensive and stylish, meaning they can get a lot of cute clothes without spending a fortune.

Sometimes trends that tweens and teens love, can send parents through the roof. Shorts are getting shorter, tops are getting skinnier, and some kids will wear a tank and mini skirt in a snow storm before they will wear something practical and "uncool". Shopping with your daughter can help deal with this struggle. Help guide her toward what’s appropriate, both for her age and the current weather conditions, but be sure not to offer up your opinion too often. You can enable your daughter by providing her with some spending money for a clothing allowance – enough that she can get a few items for herself, and your opinion will be off limits. Then the rest of her wardrobe is up to both your discretion and bank account. Cool clothes can also be very pricey, so set a budget before you go shopping. It can be difficult to say no to your daughter when you see her in an outfit she loves, and this rings especially true for dads who have a soft spot for their little girl. Do not take your child into stores out of your price range. Another option is to encourage them to earn their own money to save up for that special item.
