Fashion Education

I often take on the job of escorting young neighbor girls Helen and Emmy to school. I really shouldn't call it a job because the two of them never fail to amuse and dazzle me with their oh-so-fashionable school outfits and backpacks. The other day I spotted Helen sporting a foulard featuring a peace sign pattern laced with metallic threads. Such is life in the fast lane at Maria Baldwin elementary school. And judging from this little passerby's up-to-the-minute GAP ensemble, apparently Columbia University too. Those pre-teen girls play to win.
