How to Shop When Shopping For Newborn Baby Clothes

Shopping is always fun and it is even more fun when you are shopping for baby clothes.  The sweet, adorable little booties, socks, hats, and clothes can take you into a whole new world and this passion is often transformed into an obsession when you are shopping for girls clothes.  Pink, purple, lilac, they are all so pretty.  To show how fun shopping for girls clothing is, when I was shopping for my son when I was pregnant, I found myself buying little pink onesis for a friend who was also pregnant.

Shopping for baby clothes is addicting but we must learn to control our impulses.  Going overboard means spending much more money than needed and by the way, half the clothes for kids you buy now if you are pregnant, they won’t wear.  When shopping for clothes for your precious little bundle, only buy the essentials because as they grow, you will be cleaning out their draws and closets, giving half the things away before they even wear them.

Yes, it is hard but when shopping for baby clothes, buy only the essentials and if you want to over indulge, spend extra money on diapers, not newborns though; bottles, wipes, and other little essentials that they could never get enough of; things that they will never outgrow.  If you currently have a bun in the oven and want to know what to shop for, you are not alone and that is why I created a brief idea of things you must have when shopping for baby clothes.

Things you must have for your newborn babe

Socks, tops, onseis, rompers, if you are having a winter baby, mittens (these are also important in the summer because babies tend to scratch themselves); hats are a must; jackets, no more than two 0-3 months because they will outgrow them like that.  Other necessities that you must get includes, diaper cream, diapers, lots of them; oils, powders, soaps, and lotions, although it is not recommended that you use it on them until they are at least one month. 

Now that you have an idea of the things needed for a newborn baby, when shopping for baby clothes, I strongly suggest that you do not go cheap.  A baby’s skin is very delicate and if you put certain fabrics on them, they will rash and chafe very easily. Stick with clothes for kids that are made from cotton and never buy clothes that have strong dyes in them.  This is because they wear easily and in one wash they will begin looking old and too worn.  The dyes in baby clothes will also irritate their delicate skin very easily as well.

If you are a savvy shopper and are shopping on a budget but would like for your baby to wear brand name clothing such as Oshkosh, Gold Rush, J Brand, and ella moss, buy their clothing one or two sizes larger.  Take this for example; my son is four months old now but he is big for his age so he is wear 6-9 months clothing, instead of buying 6-9months, I go out and get 9months or even 12 month old clothing. 

Yes, I know you may be saying that these clothes are too big but trust me they aren’t.  I have a 1T shirt for my son that cannot fit him because it is too small.  What you need to do however, is be careful of the sizes that you buy because some brands size their clothes smaller than others. 

Now that you have been briefed on shopping for your little ones, go out and spend some money but remember not to overdo it.

Kids Clothing: Dress Your Kids in Style without a Hefty Price Tag

It is a wonderful experience being able to shop and get your kids all dolled up in some of the most unique kids clothing available. After all, shopping is fun and shopping for your children is even more pleasurable. Your kids have to look good; after all, they are a reflection of their fashionable parents and with online shopping your kids can radiate and shine in some of the most exquisite, timeless, Designer Children’s Clothing there is.

However, toddler and kids clothing are not cheap and because they are constantly growing and playing, their clothes need to be changed regularly to maintain appearance. Therefore, knowing how to shop for your child is ideal to saving time and money. When shopping for your child, always remember these simple tips and you will be buying children’s clothing fewer times per year.


Always remember to buy your precious little ones clothes one size larger than their actual size because your child’s growth is rapid and buying a size up will save you one shopping expenditure per year. Purchase clothes based on climate and fabric. If you live in areas such as California or Florida, do not buy silky clothes or extremely thick materials because your children will be uncomfortable, irritated, and you will end up having to spend more money than budgeted for on clothing. Your children’s clothing should also be breathable and loose fitting for comfort.
 

However, as children get older parents would think that they would end up spending less money on clothing but this could not be further from the truth. The older your child gets, the more money you are forced to spend because they want a new outfit for every party or event they are attending and not surprising, they want Designer children’s clothes.

Your child has passed newborn, passed toddler clothing age but is now into tweens clothing and they want Designer outfits, no longer to maintain appearance for you but to build their self-esteem and feel good around their friends. What do you do, you can’t say no but can you really afford a new outfit every time they are going somewhere? No, unless you are rich, you can’t. So what do you do? You can’t buy at thrift stores and you can’t give them hand me downs because in their words, “It will ruin them.”
So you follow some of the things you did when they were a child. Don’t get me wrong, you can no longer buy adjustable waist pants but you can buy a number of tops and bottoms in different yet similar colors to provide variety. Give them the chance to mix and match a little, after all, this is where there individual styles will come out. Again blacks and whites are a most.

Give them a chance to accessorize. Purchase a number of belts, scarves, and hats and you will see how much different outfits they can get from what you can afford. Also remember that another must have essential for tweens clothing is shoes. They need shoes and they want lots of it; therefore, when buying shoes for your tweens, buy them one size up to last them for at least a year and you can get them as much as they want and your budget can afford.

Now that you are aware of some of the essentials when shopping for your child and is now able to provide them with some of the designer outfits they need, visit http://www.shopjuicebox.com/ for some of the most fashionable newborn, toddlers, and tween clothing available.

Newborn Clothing: Stay Focus When Shopping For Newborn Clothing

Everyone who has ever been pregnant before has been carried away by all the beautiful and cuddly baby things that is available to choose from and because of this you will at times end up not getting the most essential newborn clothing until it is too late.  When you go shopping and you see the newborn clothing, the toddler clothing, all the way up to the fabulous kids clothing, you realize that you end up buying one year old clothing and designer children’s clothing instead of new born clothing and while you might get some newborn clothing, you forget the essentials.  However, what are essential newborn clothing and when should you start shopping for them?

Ok, before we look at essential newborn clothing, let’s just cover the basic newborn items that you must ensure that you have before your little bundle of joy comes into the world.  We all know that diaper, wipes, diaper cream, bottles, a health kit, bottles and nipples (however, if you are breast feeding, you really do not need anything), diaper pail, changing pads and the list goes on and on.  However do not get distressed, the good thing about shopping for baby is that everyone loves babies and you can easily find these items everywhere you look.

Now that we have focused on some of the essential baby items, let us now look on the essential newborn clothing that you will need for your precious little one until they get to three months old.  You will not need to buy three month old clothes until your baby is actually three months old and with that said you also know that toddler clothing and kids clothing can wait until they are much older.  If you are a fashionable woman, you can start buying your designer children’s clothing as soon as you find out that you are pregnant.  However, if you have been through this before and are not as excited, you can wait a few months and not start your shopping spree until you know the sex of the baby. 

When shopping for your newborn clothing keep in mind that you should not buy too much because if you over do it, your baby will never wear half of them.  Therefore, think about getting, no more than the mentioned: five pair of pants, eight onesies and or undershirts, five stretchy sleepers (the ones with zippers come highly recommended), eight pairs of booties and socks, two pairs of mittens that will prevent your baby from scratching his face, two cardigans, four dressing up outfits, snowsuits or bunting bag for babies born during the winter season, eight receiving blankets, and three cotton ones.

While this list may seem quite long, you can easily get all your precious newborn clothing in one place simply by going online and one of the best places to look for designer children’s clothing is at your nearest shop.  There, you have the option to pick choose and refuse from all the beautiful clothing for newborn and children that they have to offer.

Of course, when you shop for kids clothing, it is like you are in heaven, I mean, your little bundle of joy has to have all the designer children’s clothing  and you find yourself buying  toddler clothing for an unborn babe that hasn’t even entered into the third trimester.  However, no matter how you shop, you know that your baby is not going to be stuck in newborn clothing for the rest of its life and the funny thing is, they grow so fast and toddler clothing will barely last them for a year, right?

When shopping for children’s clothing you need to keep the fabric of the clothes in mind and always remember that they have very sensitive skin, so the cloth that is used to make their clothes should be made from cotton.  You should also ensure that these newborn and toddler clothing does not have any dyes in them because again, their skin is very sensitive and dyes will only aggravate it.
