Gap Kids Recommends Little Girls Eschew Pants This Winter

As the temperatures drop, clothing store racks fill with warm snuggly sweaters, cozy fuzzy boots, and child sized black sequined booty shorts. Wait, what?

A reader alerted us to a winter wardrobe suggestion assembled by Gap Kids, and I’m not sure what’s more WTF about it — the weird insistence on “sexiness” or its stunning lack of practicality. What’s a kid supposed to do with an outfit like this? Not go sledding, snow angeling, or ice skating, that’s for damn sure. The implied sweater-wearing also means that more high energy indoor activities, like discoing or, uh, present opening would render the wearer sweaty. This is just a recipe for un-fun times.

I suppose this is what happens when five-year-olds are allowed to dress themselves using only Bratz clothing.
