Very Pinteresting

This post is mainly for Em, but everyone can laugh at the pictures.

Yes, Em, there are a LOT of headband tutorials on Pinterest. But the thing I've been noticing that's here to replace all the ridiculous poof skirts of the past few years is... tulle tutus. I went looking for an example of one, and come across this beauty....




Definitely the worst I've ever seen. It's actually supposed to be a wicked witch costume (hence the broom, smoke, and tiny witch hat that I thought was a butterfly until just now), but I bet this mom will find any excuse to parade this masterpiece out. 

But then I came across this one. 


And minus the wrist and hair things, wouldn't Elle look cute sitting in a mountain of Cookie tulle? (Trick question, Elle would look cute sitting in a mountain of garbage).

And now, for your viewing pleasure... Ridiculous Things Moms Do To Their Children!!! 





A 9 month old flapper?




Caption "Presh!!" That flower is the size of her FACE!!! 


Ooh, this mom is trying to be DIFFERENT by not using tulle!!! 

The caption on this was "First Birthday Outfit!!!" 

 
This girl is so darling, but that bow distracts from her whole face!! 


Just thought I'd share. As with all things on the internet, Pinterest has it's wonderful sides, and it's gag me with a spoon sides. I've personally really enjoyed it, and my budget has loved all of the recipes and household tips I've come across. Just thought I'd put that out there.

Totally agree with you on the good and bad of pinterest. I really like some things on there but most of it makes me so annoyed. Man I hate those tulle skirts SO much!! The cookie monster one is pretty cute though. The flapper outfits are so popular right now, barf.

NEVER BEEN TO TULLE... HA.... HA..... HA.....

(inside joke with Em. If you want to hear it, we can explain)

Cat said...

Yes, please.

Emily said...

Gag. Barf. Blech.

Always love a Toole reference. (ha........ha..........ha..........ha........ha). Best thing ever even though tulle is pronounced "tool". Unless of course you are playing on pronouncing the word as mom was in our joke. Smart.

I think a little kid flapper could be cute on Halloween (only). Cute there was a cookie monster skirt, but a little much for me even after the crazy furry bands have been removed.

Cat said...

I think I remember why that's funny now.

I am breaking down today and joining pinterest to try and get some ideas for Scout's birthday party on Monday.




Someone please play "taps".

Cat said...

Oh, Em. 'Taps'is definitely playing in my heart. But I understand. Her birthday is coming up very soon! But still.

I am actually the mother of the little girl in the Christmas outfit, and do not see anything RIDICULOUS about her wearing a skirt (she is a girl) and a Santa shirt (it was Christmas). I would appreciate you removing MY photo, as there is such thing as a Copyright law. And I do own full rights to that photo. I am sorry that things like this makes you gag, but I believe they are just KIDS and should not be bashed. Most of them are modeling items not wearing them every day, and if they did wear them every day, that is up to their mothers to decide.
Ps. the last girl is Adorable, God bless her!
