....and if so, from what age? And how do you handle it if they want perfectly suitable clothes you don't like much?
I went shopping for dd (age 6) last week, and got 7 new summer dresses. I brought them home, and she tried them on for fit. I told her she could choose 3 to keep.
Two of the three dresses she chose are my least favourites. I'm ashamed to say that I'm tempted to just keep the ones I like best. I know I need to/should give her some choice, some self expression, some freedom, but she just looks sooo sweet in a few of the dresses she didn't choose......
