If you thought Heelarious- high heel shoes for babies were wrong then wait to I tell you about this next product for babies. ( I know my title gave it away.)
In my post ‘Provocative Fashion Trends and Teens‘ I commented that “If you have a teen daughter in high school, her back-to-school shopping list may contain a pair of skinny jeans.”
Well apparently teens are not he only one wearing skinny jeans. Get ready for the next trend: skinny jeans for babies. ( I guess these have been around for awhile now.)

After the discussion on “Provocative Fashion Trends and Teens” which continues I thought that it would be an appropriate time to share this post.
What kind of parent are you?
It’s said that children do not come with an instruction manual. Wouldn’t it be much easier if they did. Sure there are many resources out there and self help books, but what style of parenting is the right method to use.
Parenting speaker and author of best-selling books on parenting, Nancy Samalin, divides parenting styles into three categories: permissive, too strict(Authoritarian) and authoritative, Nancy who has been leading parenting workshops for the past 25 years, explains the relationship between parent and child as one of mutual respect. Her philosophy is one of the importance of teaching kids right from wrong.

A trend of revealing clothing for young girls
Most of today’s clothing styles for teen girls do nothing to promote modesty.
If you have a teen daughter in high school, her back-to-school shopping list may contain a pair of skinny jeans. They are apparently what is hot this school year.
Now a days it is nearly impossible to find pants that do not sit ridiculously low or extremely tight. Don’t get me started on skirts?
A skirt should cover your butt when you sit down and I don’t think it is ok for a 15 year old to be wearing a revealing top that shows off her cleavage.
Oh and tights are not pants, but tell that to a 16 year old. I’m not sure who started the trend, but seeing a young girl in white tights that leave nothing to the imagination is trashy.

I’m not a big drinker, but I do enjoy sitting by my electric fireplace on a crisp winter night, relaxing with a glass of wine.
It is hard to believe that Summer is coming to an end and Winter will soon be upon us. I’ve been redecorating my living room lately and thought that perhaps a wine cabinet would be a nice addition to my living room.
I came across the website Glassstemwareracks.com.
Glassstemwareracks.com has all sorts of wine glass racks and cabinets for sale from table stemware racks to ceiling hanging wine glass racks. (more)…
