What a dumb question. Of course it’s cool.
Then again, this is coming from the girl who wore coordinating GAP outfits with all her friends throughout high school. I wish I was joking. In my defense, it was often accidental.

Coordination. That is the name of the game. So coordinated it may go unnoticeable except to other supermoms who use the same trick.
Matching my daughter makes me realize a few things:
- People here in Australia are too cool for school and think everything is lame.
- Spending too much time/effort/money on mom & daught coordination is a sure sign you don’t spend enough time with other grown-ups.
- Occasional matching makes you feel that you’ve at least put in an effort for fashion which makes the yoga pants and t-shirts a bit more justifiable on a daily basis.
- Your husband, no matter how sentimental, isn’t going to get it. Particularly if the fabric store keeps repeatedly popping up on the ole bank statement.
It is rampant.
It is timeless.
And your daughter will probably never thank you.

Bahaha, I love the red sweater/perm photo on the bottom :D You should do that one next :)
I didn’t wear clothes that matched my Mum, but she did sew me a slip to wear under my dresses, just like her. I felt so fancy :)
That is really special about the slip. Big things like that make little girls feel so grown up, huh? EK has one of my old silky slips, but we use it as a nightgown. Ha!
Omg girl my HUSBAND is HARDCORE about our family coordinating! If you notice in our pics typically we’ll either all be coordinated or at least the kids will be or the mommy/daughter father/son looks will match haha we LOVE it!!!!
Haha. My husband thought it was cheesy until we had kid and he loves it too :)
