Fall Wardrobe

For some reason, I'm very excited about Raegan's Fall and Winter clothes. Maybe it's because I have learned from experience what she needs and what is too much. I set out to get her wardrobe and be satisfied with it, instead of picking up things here and there and ending up with too much. I'm skipping most of the holiday gear, such as shirts with Halloween and Christmas graphics. I'll probably get her some Christmas jammies and one shirt, but that's about it. Last year I went overboard with Christmas onesies, and she probably wore each of them once, twice max. Ouch!

So let's discuss these clothes. How cute is that blue dress with the striped cardigan?! it was a birthday gift from a mom in our play group. It reminds me of some outfits in the American Girl catalog. A couple of the striped shirts are from Old Navy and the sleeves can be worn short or long. I think they will be great transition pieces for the Fall. I bought the heart dress a year ago. It is a size 9 month and was intended for this past Valentine's Day, but it was way too big then. I actually forgot we had it and was pleasantly surprised to see it in the closet. I love the tweed shoes! They arrived Friday and look so cute on her. They are Rileyroos, a brand that is supposed to be very good for baby's feet. I would like to point out that I used the printable sizing chart, and she measured at a size 18-24 months. . . so, yeah, she has long, narrow feet like me. All we're waiting on is cooler weather to wear all of these cute things. It's still in the 80s here.

Raegan's Halloween outfit will also come from her Fall clothing. This year I decided to get her a coordinated outfit rather than a costume. I don't like spending money on one-time use items, so I bought pieces that she can wear all fall and winter. The adorable hat came from The Fuzzy Noggin on etsy. The shirt, leggings, and boots are from Target.
