I scored major Mom points when I finally broke down and bought Katherine the "gauchos" that she has been begging for since December. Apparently she was the last pre-teen girl on the planet not to own a pair of these pants. For those of you not up on the lastest trends in "fashion," I have included a photo below.

Technically these are "culottes," gauchos being South American cowboys. I won't bother pointing that out to Katherine.

Though I'm sure these pants are very comfortable, for some reason I find them unappealing. Maybe it's repressed memories of the fifth grade and my own pair of purple velour "gaucho pants." I even had a vest that matched.
