It has never occurred to me to put outfits together. What if you want to put a pair of pants with a different shirt? Maybe my kids haven't had enough clothes.
I'm not putting anything together.
THEY CAME THAT WAY! IN A SET!
People. Understand me. LOL.
Right. They come that way - and then you keep them that way. It never occurred to me to keep them as a set once they were washed. I'm apparently a bad baby clother.

Well.
I doubt you would concoct the combinations that my nanny does.

My girls closet and dresser is the only thing in the house I keep organized. All of their outfits are together in sets, and I usually put them in the same outfit but different colors so it all has to stay together. I have to keep it super clear what goes together because if h dresses them he'll grab whatever he touches first and it pisses me off when he puts them in random parts of 3 different outfits becasee then all those options are out of circulation until I do laundry.
My clothes however are in 3 hampers: clean, dirty and could be worn again in a pinch.
if it comes in sets, or i buy it as an outfit, it gets hung up or folded together as such.
as she gets older, more of her sets are hung, and she has more mix/match. her drawers are organized with shirts in one drawer (sleeveless, short, long - all separated) and pants in another (shorts, jeans, yoga/sweats, leggings - all separated).
when i do laundry and put her clothes away on sunday, i also lay out clothes for each day, based on weather and activity. makes my morning go more smoothly, and helps H if he gets her dressed.
I get you. Most of DD's clothes are hung in sets (we are well out of onsie set stage but if I always buy her clothes in sets, so if I buy her a pair of pants, I buy a top to go with it). She has a few layering pieces and random tops/pants to mix & match in drawers.
DH gets to dress her in sets only because otherwise he somehow sends her out into the world wearing a peplum top and a random diaper cover when left to his own devices. "OH, those aren't pants?" NO.
lol I used to be so good at keeping C's closet and dresser in order and now it is terrible. This summer I found 9 month stuff in K's dresser and she is 2 1/2. LOL
Bonnie still has some 9 month stuff that actually FITS HER. #tinynuggetproblems

Aw. K is into three t as of the summer. Part of it is her tummy, she started out bigger due to the gestational diabetes and will most likely not lose it till she is five or so. This makes it tricky when buying pants because what works in the length does not always work in the waist.
I used to feel like this. But my H does daycare drop off and I'm out of the house before the rest of them are even up. I used to pick out and lay out her clothes every night, but quickly stopped giving a shit because I had plenty of other things to do, plus even when I laid things out, he couldn't figure it out. Like the time he put her in a cardigan under her dress, and the dress was on backwards. WTF. It became an adventure to see what she was in when I picked her up from daycare.
I've come to accept the fact that she's just going to look like an insane person, despite the fact that I put away her laundry so things that go together are together.
Even if she was in a perfect matching outfit, he can't do her hair, and she has a wild, wild head of ringlets and gets insane bedhead, which is how he sends her to daycare, so a nicely coordinated outfit would be offset by that anyway. Oh, and she wears glasses too.
He's a teacher, so off for the summer, and this summer he texted me a photo of them on an outing. She is two, and had her giant wild hair, glasses slipping down her face, was wearing a spaghetti strap tank top and a pair of shorts, sitting on the trunk of his car eating a hard boiled egg from 7-11. #klassy
Now that we have a boy, he finds him a lot easier to dress.

Cambria was like that, too. She didn't lose the tummy until around 4-5. Bonnie mostly wears 2t, but some of it swims on her, depending on the brand. She usually needs smaller pants, like 18/24. It's funny, because she was my biggest baby at birth (8lbs10oz) but she has consistently grown along the 5th percentile since then. She's just a little petite gal.
