I love having a girl to dress in childrens clothes!

The best part of having a daughter is being able to dress her up in all of the great little girls clothing! I have a son as well, and I must admit that the selection of boys outfits is never as nice as what I can find for girls! Don't get me wrong, I can find nice childrens clothes for both of my kids, but the good boy stuff is few and far between. My biggest complaint with boys clothing is that everything is dark and dreary, camouflage or sports themed, or plastered with tacky illustrations and television and movie characters. Is it so wrong to want to dress your little boy is nice, sweet little boy apparel?

Now girls clothes on the other hand... a walk in the park! Last week alone I was able to find my daughter a pair of metallic silver jeans, dark blue denim jeans with silver sparkles all over them, and some great tights in the baby clothes section at Babies 'r Us.

Where do you shop for clothing for your children? I know that Gymboree and The Children's Place are often recommended, but there have to be some other nice stores as well! I love Carters clothing, but sadly their sizes don't go beyond babies!

I usually try to get my kid's clothes online. There are quite a few suppliers of kid's clothes online and it's quite easy to compare what they offer and the different prices they have.

Nice to have so much choice at your fingertips.

I've always been more into the boys' clothing myself, I never got to experience the girly phase with dresses and such. I think that little boys look adorable in that preppy look with button up shirts and collars personally. For variety I think it's best to check online at places like estella where you can get adorable designer kids' clothing without having the common cliche camo, sports, or character clothing.

I have two girls and, have always loved the quality & look of designer baby clothes. Sure they cost a little more but, you get quality over quantity and, my girls are worth it!

I totally agree with you.It is harder to find kid's clothes for boys without them having characters or being camoflauge.

hehehehe I know what you mean about boys clothes! But... you should really take advantage of the time you have when you can actually choose what your boy wears... I remember how bummed out my mom was when I was old enough to choose my own look! I loved the dark & dreary in high school!!! Oh well though, because I grew out of it... I buy most of my clothes here now :-)
