Seriously, WTH??If you know about the clothing brand Juicy Couture, then you know it's generally targeted toward teenagers and young adults. That said, they do make some awfully cute clothes for little girls and babies too and I have been guilty of buying a few pieces for my daughter here and there. I've justified these purchases based on cuteness alone, plus the fact that I DON'T buy her any of the items with "JUICY" written across the ass of the pants, or any of the suggestive t-shirts, etc...
So as an occasional Juicy purchaser, how can this particular Valentine bug me SO MUCH?? My son is clueless of course, but I found it while I was rifling through his candy hunting for just one more mini Twix.
Color me paradox, I know, I know...
It's one thing to buy a few items of clothing for a little girl who has no idea what brand she's wearing but it's another thing entirely when a 4th grade little girl directly gives the very innuendo of the brand to MY son!
Wait. Isn't it even worse for the mom to buy these Valentines for her little girl to give to the little 4th grade boys...at a private Christian school no less?
I'll bet they cost a small fortune too. I will be avoiding this brand all together, at least in the near future, so that my eventual 4th grade daughter won't be asking me to buy her these Valentines some day. That would be the point at which I would really have to explain the paradox and I'm just not prepared to do that.
It's kinda like the whole Victoria's Secret "Pink" line, though Juicy was first with the whole, write-it-across-your-butt thing. Still, "pink" and "juicy" should be reserved for my burger, not my daughter's or my son's girlfriend's ass.
