    For $395 those bike shorts better have butt padding made of sunshine, dreams, and rainbows. #stellamccartneyforgapkids

    @pantsless economist...access RESTORED: See, I would rather have butt padding made of frowniness and allergens, so I don't feel guilty when I sit on them. I would feel awkward rubbing my butt on a rainbow!

    @lilbobbytables: Interesting. Perhaps memory foam and synthetic materials arose as a compromise between two warring segments of butt-pad developers. #stellamccartneyforgapkids

    Dear Alexander Wang,

    I get it. I just don't understand why Italian yarn and digital weaving makes your bike shorts any better or more functional than a pair of $10 bike shorts.

    Please enlighten me.

    @PilgrimSoul: Status, baybee. My mother shopped for my sister and I at Lord & Tayler and Bonwit Teller - even though we both topped off at 6', and outgrew our clothes every 6 months. We weren't rich, but my mother wanted everyone to think we were. #stellamccartneyforgapkids

    @PilgrimSoul: You buy a size bigger so that they can wear it for a year, and so that you can layer under it during winter. At least, that's what I do. (But I also buy most of my child's clothes at WalMart and Ross. Cute, rugged, and $4 for jeans.) #stellamccartneyforgapkids

    @PilgrimSoul: One child may only wear the clothing for 6 months, but often, baby clothes are hand-me-downs for that reason. My mother famously purchased exorbitantly expensive clothing for me as a child, but it was then passed down to my sister, and four of my cousins. When you consider it in that way, they can get a lot of wear. That said, I am sure Suri Cruise is not getting hand-me-downs, or giving them to others. It's all relative. #stellamccartneyforgapkids

    @raphaela: I buy most of my son's at Kohl's and Target, but when I wanted something really cute for his Christmas card pictures, I went to Janie and Jack (where I normally never go). I found a ridiculously cute outfit for all of $38. He wore it for his picture, he wore it a few times and his cousin is wearing it this Xmas. Not a bad deal. #stellamccartneyforgapkids

    @Maritsa: Well, in my case at least, better quality. So buying expensive clothing for kids who'll outgrow it in a few months doesn't make sense to me. An expensive dress I'll wear for the next 5-10 years though? Yes. #stellamccartneyforgapkids

    @InABook: Yeah, I don't have any issue with expensive stuff, I buy enough of it myself (mostly bags). I also don't think Gap Kids clothes are some outrageously expensive waste of money or conspicuous consumption. Maybe if you bought every single item in your kids' wardrobe there, but no one I know does that (though I'm sure someone does).

    As many people have pointed out, they are better quality, wear better, and are often handed down. And are not even that expensive! A sweater is probably $38. (Granted the Stella M line is prob more.)

    I've gotten Gap hand-me-downs from friends who got the clothes from other people. They're just better quality than, say, Target's house brand, so they can be re-used. If they're still in good shape, most people give their kids' clothes away when they're done with them, or sell them at a consignment shop.

    I wasn't suggesting people shouldn't buy expensive stuff. I don't give a crap what other people spend their money on. God knows my family thinks I spend too much money on clothes. But if I can afford it, who cares? #stellamccartneyforgapkids

    I was just going to say...I'm distracted by the possibility of a photographer shouting at that kid, "Yeah, yeah, hold him like THAT!"--"him" being a tame fox. Wipe that vapid look of yourself, kid and hold the creature correctly! #stellamccartneyforgapkids

    Wait, people are buying bike shorts? Well, people who do not need bike shorts for utilitarian bike related purposes are purchasing bike shorts? That is equally or more upsetting than people spending $400.00 on bike shorts.

    If you will excuse me, I feel the need to dig a hole and hide. Ta. #ragtrade
