Sasha and Malia - Tween Fashion Icons

Wednesday July 8, 2009

CNN is reporting that the Obama daughters, Sasha and Malia, have been noticed on their recent overseas trip for their fashion sense. It's true that tweens today are fairly fashion savvy, and many tweens base their clothing choices on what they see their famous contemporaries wear. Weather it's Sasha and Malia classic J. Crew clothing or Miley Cyrus's borderline bohemian look, your tween is probably influenced heavily by the clothes she sees other tweens wear on television and in tween magazines.

If you're worried your tween won't be able to satisfy her fashion identity within your family budget, fear not. There are ways to help tweens choose stylish and appropriate clothing without breaking the bank. The key is communicating before going shopping.
