CLOTHING
- Gap Kids:
Gap.com
Gap quickly became our favorite brand of jeans. They are durable and have a soft waistband to provide comfort. In addition to jeans, they also have some great shorts and tops, plus their jackets with bear ears are some of the most adorable things I have ever seen.
The secret to buying Gap on a budget is two-fold. First, shop the sales. If you frequent the Gap website you will notice they almost always have a 30-40%. Second, because the clothing is durable I often find it at local consignment and thrift stores in almost new condition.

Zara is a great place to buy everything from casual to formal baby clothing. As a mama on a budget I haven't ventured into their formal options yet, but the casual baby boy shirts are amazing. Just like before, watch for the end of season sales and buy ahead to save the most money. Luke has several of their pocket shirts (pictured below) in different colors which were purchased for approx $7 each.

This brand is perfect for baby. Always affordable, it was my go-to choice for sweats and basics when Luke was a newborn. Not only are the pieces cute, they are nice and cozy for your tiny little one. Plus I didn't stress when he would inevitably stain his outfit because replacements didn't break the bank.

Comfortable Pajamas: Softsie
softsie.com
Physical comfort is pivotal to helping baby fall asleep quickly and stay asleep longer. When I put my son to bed at night I want to know that he is wrapped in pajamas that are soft and nourish his skin. Softsie's are deliciously soft! Infused into the Softsie Footie are aloe vera, jojoba oil, and vitamin E. These organic, all-natural ingredients are infused into the wonderfully soft fabric through a specially capsulation process. Softsies literally bathe your baby in nourishment. I wish these came in my size!
I would especially recommend these if your baby has sensitive skin or struggles with drying skin conditions such as eczema. While these pajamas alone are not enough to treat or cure any skin condition, I definitely notice a difference in the softness of Luke's skin when he has spent an night in his Softsie footie pajamas.
Available in sizes 3 months to 2T. Separates are also now available and those go all the way to 5T.

With a range of beautiful prints, these bibdanas are made of colorful cotton fabric and backed in an absorbent soft white flannel. These fit a range of sizes without being too bulky.
- We Are Minors Bibdanas:
http://www.wearemnrs.com
I LOVE the way this brand fits. Unlike so many other bibdanas on the market, We Are Minors curves the neckline so that it doesn't bunch creating a tailored appearance. Additionally, there are two sets of snaps allowing you to customize the fit and achieve the perfect size! On their site, they showcase a wide selection of adorable patterns that change from season to season.
-Hemming Birds Bibdanas:
http://hemming-birds.com
The bibdanas by Hemming Birds are a bit different then all the others I have purchased. Instead of sewing together several materials to create a triangle shape, these are made by folding over a square bandana. This styling makes them especially beautiful and stylish. In my opinion, this brand fits a larger baby best.
HATS
Living in sunny Southern California, hats are a necessary form of sun protection for eyes, face, and head protection. A common misconception is that only fair skinned children need sun protection, however this is not true. ALL children need to be shielded from direct sunlight.
- George Hats:
https://www.etsy.com/people/GeorgeHats
From sunhat to trucker hats, George Hats is taking Etsy by storm. With new styles and patterns being attend all the time, you are sure to find one (or five) that will be perfect for your baby. Hand-made from quality materials by a local mama with two beautiful boys, this is a brand that should be a part of every baby's wardrobe.
