Tyler is wondering why Kit is wearing his ears.
The cap with extreme flaps! You can tie them, wrap them around your neck, but don't try to hear with them.
Kit is wearing a sweater set and hat with the Argyle pattern, originally from the tartans of Argyll County, Scotland. Of course, Kit is not of Scottish origin. In fact, she is, duh, American.
Uh oh. Kit has to stand in the corner because she was "talking back."
Kit is all dolled up (!!) for a night on the town in her sleeveless shell decorated with sparkly beads,long satin skirt and beaded purse. Wait a second! She's too young for a night on the town. She'lljust have to stay home and pretend she's dancing in the Marble Halls of the Ritz. Oh, okay, it's really my fireplace.
Kit enjoys wearing her Northwestern Outdoorsman Toque (pronounced "tuke") and her Fisherman's Cable Vest. She especially appreciates her long boots as she jumps into the water to pull her canoe ashore.
Kit's eyes sparkle when she wears this bead trimmed sweater, hat and boots
Kit wears her stars and stripes motif cardigan sweater with zipper front while watching the Fourth of July parade. She doesn't have a flag, so she waves her matching scarf! Huzzah!
Kit helps Walmart Girl with her pull over long sleeved sweater. They both enjoy the Hug boots in this cold weather!
BAGS A MILLION!! Kit loves the large bag for weekends in the Hamptons. Walmart Girl uses the small bag for her shopping trips to, well, Duh, Walmart. Mr. Bag Head wishes to remain anonymous.
