Yes she's wearing a combination of PJs, sweatshirt, and fleece hat.I am aware that some people would not allow this. I mean it was a near 90 degree day. And she did look.... um.... special. But I have always gotten some kind of pleasure, pride even (not for myself but for my kids), out of allowing them to wear their clothes their way.
Plus, I find it results in a lot more laughs and a lot less fights.

I love that the tag is still on the hat.
Murphy has been known to go out with a shirt on backwards--purposefully. I remember I used to try to dissuade him, but then was like 'who cares?'
He went to the library last week wearing his big pajama t-shirt and shorts(which naturally no one could see so he just looked like a weirdo wearing a big t-shirt.) He wanted to make sure that he could quickly get back into his preferred outfit when we got home.
You know I would not have even noticed anything amiss with Baby's fashionable outfit!
I think kids SHOULD be allowed to express their personal style! It gives them self confidence and its fun! Anyone who doesnt think so...well...PIFF!!! LOL!
love it! i will go along w/ almost anything they pick out for hanging out/errand days. (dress up costumes are a favorite) i do insist on some type of normalcy for school and visiting relatives...
then again my baby's favorite outfit is buck naked..hey-it saves money on diapers (a little pee never hurt the grass..) AND saves me some laundry. I'm sure the neighbors think im a wackadoo though (yeah-there goes crazy with the naked 2yr old...)
I hear you and understand.
Lil O picks out her own stuff along with H and B. HA HA!!!
H gives me the most grief truth be known. HA HA!!
I agree, kids anything goes. Husbands however should never pick out their own outfits. I'd prefer a pink fleece hat to the 20 year old wolf t-shirt.
Oh Mom that made me spit out my water!
julie,
She does look kind of skater punk... so in some circles it works ;)
Penelope Anne,
" It gives them self confidence and its fun! "
I totally agree. Plus it's one less thing I have to manage.
Marie,
One nice thing about Kid's hippie school is that it is well within the norm to look a little disheveled. Kid is very into picking out her outfits for school... sometimes weird combos... but hey if she has clothes on it's a success.
Supermom,
Oh I know she does. I'll be very interested in what my girls dress like when they hit their teens.
Baby is such a BADASS! It's awesome.

She dances to the beat of a different drummer....and that can be very very good. My daughter used to dress in layers at baby's age. It was nothing for her to have 3 coats on over the top of a couple dresses with pj's still on underneath it all! I never made her change either until she got old enough for school. I figured by then I'd better make her dress "normally" before I received a visit from the authorities. LOLOLOLOL
