Can we talk Easter clothes?

[spk926]

It's not that far away guys!

I need something for DD in a 3T and something for DS in either Newborn or 0-3, depending on his size. I loved DD's dress last year from Janie and Jack (can't remember the year or line). I have no clue what to get her this year though. What are your girls wearing? How about baby boys? I need ideas! Ideally I'd like for them to coordinate some.

Here's DD's dress last year that I loved!

[numbers]

DD will probably wear this Well Dressed Wolf dress and I'm hunting for a matching coral cardigan for myself.

DD2 has a striped dress that was DD1's from the childrens place. She may be too new for it though. Why is Easter so early? Also it will be too cold.

I may buy one of those cute sweatshirt/tutu dresses. I would really love something gold that would match DD2 for when we take newborn pics.

Im no help. Just mainly complaining its too early this year.

Dd is probably wearing this bc we don't go to church and we won't be going out to eat this year since my sisters twins will only be 6 months. Excuse the silly face and gross carpet.


ETA: Plus, this is pretty much the absolute last year I can dress her like this so I'm doing it.

I'm pissed because the bunny dress from Boden I wanted is on back order for like 3 months.

But really we have no place to go/wear nice stuff. I'm thinking I might get the bunny tunic/leggings set from MB and then she could wear it beyond Easter as well.

ETA: OH OF COURSE, it's on back order for 15 weeks. 

Which bunny dress? Have you tried Nordstrom?

I think kate1482 and I have the entire Boden spring line between us.

redheadk I have that WDW, too.

I wish I could get a cute dress for Nods, but the last time she wore a nice dress was Easter last year and it was terrible. She hated it and as much as I want to make her look cute, I don't want to make her uncomfortable. So she will probably wear regular clothes.

Chase on the other hand is going to be adorable, I need to find him a cute bowtie outfit.

[Deleted]

DS will be 12 weeks old at Easter. I plan to dress him in a red plaid flannel collared onesie and gray corduroy overalls (both Oshkosh). Not fancy, but I think it will be cute, and it will still be freezing here so he needs a warm outfit.

Ha! I may have put in another order for a cord jacket and more tights/socks. Love love love the spring line.

Dd will be wearing this with a pink cardigan my dh's grandmother knit and gave to his mom to save for future great grandkids (she passed away 5 years ago)

swizz DD has both of those in 18-24. 

I ordered the lamb version of the set because she has so much bunny stuff (her nickname/spirit animal).

It would be adorable for Easter and it looks like it would arrive in time in C's size.

My sister bought L this dress for her birthday, so I'm hoping it fits for Easter

No idea about M.

[preppy]

I got DD these dungarees with a white Peter pan collar onesie with pink polka dots. It will still be pretty chilly in New England.

[miamigirl]

What do you guys do for Easter?

DD has a dress, but we really have no plans yet

[geek96]

I bought these last March on the day we found out we were having a girl.

miamigirl we have never celebrated Easter before but I think the idea of dressing up and having an Easter basket is fun so we are starting this year. I am going to get DD a small basket and we are going to have a brunch at our new house. I am trying to figure out my menu:)

Sounds fun! We've never celebrated Easter either, but I never turn down an opportunity to dress up

How's St Croix going?

numbers I was also looking at this one. But I hate anything that requires ironing after washing and I'm afraid the top would.

I love that set, too! You might get lucky by letting the top air dry while on a hanger?

preppy I am obsessed with those dungarees! I wish my DD was still in rompers. 

miamigirl We typically do church and brunch out with the ILs.

Bunny dress

@tambcat

Those dresses are adorable. I haven't gotten into Eleanor Rose. (Ordering process seemed annoying) Have you been happy with the quality/fit?

[redheadbaker]

We just got a causal button-down from Osh Kosh and khakis. (sorry if the pic is huge)

This is the first ER I've bought because most of it isn't really my style (too much going on). The quality seems okay.. there are things I expected to be nicer, like the sash on E's dress is just hemmed around the edge instead of folded over as a double layer, if that makes sense. And they aren't lined. BUT they are pretty cheap compared to Janie and Jack, which is my usual go-to. And I thought ordering was fun.  They did a pre-sale release yesterday with a new line where you had all day to order, so I wonder if they will be doing that more now instead of the limited releases.

Got it. Thanks for the review! Most of their stuff is over the top (borderline MJ) for me but some of the simpler dresses are very cute. Might have to give it a try. This Kelly's kids dress is on my list too but I haven't pulled the trigger.

We don't do Easter but my brother's wedding is coming up and the girls have these outfits:

[Deleted]

If you like patchwork, the Gymboree outlet has a matching girl and boy patchwork line. There's dresses, vests, shorts, overalls, and more stuff that all match. This is the toddler dress.

[SJ]

I have several options - oops!

I will post pics later- in between client meetings now.

[nabum]

DD is wearing this



maybe this for DS with matching mint shorts. 

[Yankees21]

Why is there so much cute girl stuff? :sobs:

Yeah boy stuff sucks for Easter. It's like the only option is a plaid button-down in mint, green, and/or yellow. YAWN. I've done that the last 3 years in a row. I wish there was something new!

YES.  This thread is killing me (and my son isn't even here yet).  I got excited by all the adorable Baby Boden stuff (seriously, drool) and I looked at the baby boy line and there is nothing comparable.  It's like t-shirts and corduroys?  WTF?  (Am I looking in the wrong place, MMM shopping mavens?)  Gymboree has cute boy stuff but it'll be way too cold here for shorts and the like. 

[numbers]

I clearly am in need of a Boden Addicts support group: DD also has that blue bunny cord dress (kate1482 pugz) and she wore that yellow bunny pinnie last spring (RexManningDay).

@starry That purple romper is my everything.

[krystee]

DS has a mint and white checkered shirt with a navy bow tie. It's adorable. I forget the color of the pants--it's a set at Target. His baptism is two weeks prior, so I am having him wear the same thing to that.
