padded bikini tops for kids && pre-teens..really?

Originally posted on my first blog on March 31 2011

So, I’m watching the news and I see that Abercrombie and Fitch have started their sale for their summer bathing suit line. I personally am a girl of curves, curves of which Abercrombie doesn’t exactly have the support in the clothing for me to wear, so I start to lose interest in the news report until the headline catches my eye.
Abercrombie has alot of angry parents for selling push up padded bikini tops for kids and pre teens, sparking major outrage for this fashion faux pas.
It’s obvious that girls growing up in today’s society are under a tremendous amount of pressure, and it hasn’t exactly improved since I was a kid either. The only difference now is that some curves like JLo’s are finally accepted..somewhat…
In the company’s defense, it actually started off as a padded push up bra for kids, but then changed the design for baithing suits. Nice Save.
There’s nothing wrong with trying to feel sexy, it’s just wrong when you’re still playing with Barbies.
