Cute picture, Right? Yeah, unless you happen to be one of the Phalon girls! We wore these on Thanksgiving, to parties, and at school assemblies. One year, they even had us wear them on a REGULAR SCHOOL DAY in November, and made us visit all the other elementary school classes. Not only were we the only red-headed kids in a predominantly Italian neighborhood, but now we were also on display as a set of 4.

I do wish, however, that I still had the outfits – what better revenge than to make my own kids wear them (particularly because I’ve got one girl and one boy)!
