I WAS standing at a checkout behind a young girl with a newborn baby.

I felt sorry for the little thing. Trendy it might have been, but the poor mite was wearing a stiff denim jacket, complete with studs. Why?

The tiny thing's movement was constrained by his mum's fashion statement. His head was disappearing inside the collar, which was rubbing on his face. A week old is a bit young to start with designer labels! Surely comfort is the prime concern.
