too cool for school

i just recently read an interesting article about school kids and fashion.
interestingly enough, kids are becoming more descerning consumers with a taste for designer labels. not just billabong or quicksilver or roxy, like back in the jurassic age (80/90's) - but serious higher end stuff - chanel sunnies for a kid in yr 5-6-7 !!!
OMFG!!!! jesus mary and joseph ! i dont even own a pair of chanel sunnies my self. they are $400+ a pair and i seriously cbf paying that much for a pair of fashion sunnies. yes they are nice - and yes owning an authentic pair does hold bragging rights. but oh my lord... im so over it. mind you these designer labelled youths are americans from the O.C area - so i am not surprised.

a seriously fugly pair of coach sneakers.
i know i know.... who am i to comment? when i have numerous designer bags in my closet- but primary school age kids with designer gear? is way over the top. thank god my yr 5 kids live in bogan-ville, are down to earth and shop in Harbour Town - like me!
