I couldn't agree more ;-) Speaking as someone who is WAY past the age of 
knowing what the heck is 'in style' for kids that age...ahem, in other words, I'm 
old folks...I couldn't tell you the difference between something worn by 
pre-teens and teens now and the early nineties if my life depended on it.
To me, jeans and a hooded top or sweater (jumper) seem pretty universal and 
cross most time barriers for what is in style. It's news to me that 'rainbow 
belts' were not in style in the early nineties ;-)
Now if the kids were wearing something really distinctive for a time period 
like the 'real fifties' (which I didn't live thru by the way, I'm not 'that' 
old!)... like poodle skirts and sweaters and pony tails, I would notice.
But the clothes in the pics look to me like regular clothes - no time period 
seems to be attached to them.

Who feels even older when reading the posts about how the clothes look 'so 
obviously like today's styles and not the early nineties'!
