My 18-year old daughter wouldn't be caught dead in most of that stuff: although she has thongs, her trousers, jeans, shorts, polo shirts, blouses, skirts and dresses are almost all quite modest. I think she has a few 'sexy' dresses, but nothing I would be embarrassed taking her to a conservative yacht or country club in. Her wardrobe is probably mostly J.Crew, Gap, Patagonia, Lacoste, Polo, and the like. Some Lands End and LL Bean, but their cuts often don't fit her well. She couldn't care less about the brands, but she wouldn't be caught dead looking cheap or sloppy.

Her 15 year old sister, who is hard to fit, has terrrible taste despite our efforts and actually likes some of the slutty stuff. We won't buy it, of course, but odd's and ends (like the t-shirt with 'tasty pastry' across the chest) slip in when we're not looking - oh, well, mom was looing for some t-shirts to convert to dust rags. She's getting better, however. Worst part is she's so label conscious. Used to be mad for Limited Too and Abercrombie. Gag. (I remember when Abercrombie & Fitch were real NYC outfitters) So, we suffer with every shopping trip.

Besides, the dress code at the yacht club has gone waaaay down in the last 10 years.

I'd like to introduce my sons ages 21 and 17 to your daughters!

My sons and I were in Las Vegas last weekend to see Blue Man Group. They were repulsed by the sluttiness of the young women and teens' attire. They commented on how disgusting they were. Thank God, that they have respect for young women and will avoid those that don't respect themselves.
