Or maybe the '60s and '70s when parents dressed kids like, um, kids and not billboards advertising how cool and edgy Mom and/or Dad were.
(Although, I must say I found my co-worker's baby in a "I Crawl The Line" t-shirt kinda cool. So...) -

I don't know about that -- my mom dressed me in plaid, bell-bottom pants in the '70s. :shock: I'm sure she thought she was advertising her hipness and fashion sense by doing this.

I dont regret wearing plaid bell-bottom pants in the 70's. I do regret, however, wrapping them around my calves and tucking them into my boots to turn them into knickers.

Here's me dressed for a normal day (circa 1969, Homecrest section of Brooklyn). Note the hard black shoe which was the norm at this age until you grew into a pair of your older siblings' sneakers.
Howdy, Stranger!
