After last week’s post about Gracen being featured on Baby Blackbird, I immediately heard from a few mamas asking me if I’d share some more of Grae’s outfits and where they were purchased.
While I love seeing other people’s fashion posts, I must admit that I had myself a little chuckle after reading the requests… Why? Well first off, because most days our 20 month old picks out her own outfit (or at least part of it), and secondly, although I adore shopping for baby girl clothes, it’s not something we do a lot of. In fact, if I’m being completely honest, I’d have to say that we only do it two or three times a year when the season’s about to change and stores have really good sales (meaning that we buy next year’s clothes a year in advance). Slightly crazy, yes, but it’s worked so far for us and has probably saved us a ton of money. Of course, we do buy her the odd pretty dress for special occasions or a pair of shoes when her feet have a sudden growth spurt and jump up three sizes (seriously, this just happened), but most of the time, we just pull out a bin of previously purchased items and we’re good to go for a new season or size.
That being said, outfit posts are so much fun and I take photos of the little miss every single day, so I thought, heck, why not? I don’t know if this will become a regular thing or not, but here are some of outfits Miss G wore this week…
Rain jacket: Baby Gap / Long-sleeved tee: H&M / Striped leggings: Baby Gap / Gumboots: Unknown (gifted)
Knitted hat: Haute Tots / Sunglasses: Joe / Long-sleeved tee: Baby Gap / Cropped jeans: H&M / Runners: New Balance, thrifted
*These jeans are actually size 2 to 4 months and are supposed to be full length. I think they’re cute at knee length, but after seeing this photo, Brad asked me never to let Grae wear them again. Haha! Maybe it’s finally time to retire them to the ‘too small bin’…

Gumboots are from Zellers! :)
Thanks, Kara! I was wondering about that!
Adorable! I think kids like to slip their toes to the wrong side of the prongs on purpose. :D I love the rain jacket!
The toes in the wrong spots must be the most uncomfortable thing ever. It gives me shudder just looking at it. :)
I love the rain jacket too. It was a Christmas gift from her Grandma… Aren’t grandmas the best? :)
