“If I had as many love affairs as you have given me credit for, I'd now be speaking to you from a jar at the Harvard Medical School.” - Frank Sinatra

When you think about it, discussions on 'age appropriate dressing' tend to be one-sided...focusing on mini-skirts, low-cut tops, and lycra...otherwise known as the key components of the bad girl school of dressing (you know, the popular one who cut class and smoked behind the bike sheds). You rarely hear anything about the pieces that scream actual school uniform...like this color-blocked cardigan from J Crew...a cardigan that I like...but which does kindle a few playground related memories.

What causes this lack of parity in the mutton dressed as lamb stakes? Or is "virtuous and scholarly"...oh, alright, and just a little nerdy...an acceptable dress code for any age group?
