Charlie Retrospective x
This photo was taken almost exactly a year ago in Scotland, when Charlie warmed the cockles of my ageing heart by choosing a girls fluffy cardigan to buy and wear (post here). I wondered when society and conventions would catch up with him and overshadow his individuality with the urge to fit in. So has a year made a difference?
He’s certainly grown taller…and likes to flaunt rules..
And he still wants to wear his red chinese silk pajamas to do the shopping!
Go Charlie!

A kid with a style all his own!
I mean…who can resist that cardigan and those PJ’s? The call to style is HUGE! and Charlie has answered that call. 😀
You got to love this boy! 😍
He is beautiful. I always regret that we force them to be “male” or “female” so early. I detest the clothes created for “boys” and for “girls” equally and wish that designers would do more genuinely unisex designs and colourways. Go Charlie.
Love his attitude! What I don’t understand is how society regresses…. I was watching Top of the Pops on BBC4 from the 70s and saw a performance by Rod Stewart wearing makeup, frilly feminine top. As were most of the male performers. Didn’t look like they were “in drag” just wearing flamboyant clothing so I wonder what happened and how conformity became the norm?
I love this. Charlie often makes me think of a mini-Mr O. You should see some of the get-ups from his childhood photos.
