This article via CNN.com just scared the bejesus out of me:
Teens Seek Luxury Items for Back-to-School Wardrobes
So basically, we're all doomed. Now more than ever, teens and tweens covet the same luxurious handbags, sunglasses and jeans as their older fashionista counterparts. This is really not suprising, what with "Laguna," "The Hills" and "My Super Sweet Sixteen" taking teen excess to outlandish levels. But it's only going to get worse, good people!
I am so scared for my kids. I mean they are truly going to learn from the worst. By the time I
1) convince myself to have kids
2) get around to saving up for the required post-push lift and tuck, and
3) cry for a couple of months to mourn the end of my life as I know it
things are going to be out of control! I can totally picture my son's first words being, "Burberry bitch!"
