I haven't bought much for the girls yet- A has been in 2t since she was 10 months old and C is moving into it now.
From what I can remember, I've spent $60 on 2 pairs of Livie and Luca shoes, $250 during the tea sample sale, $75ish at baby gap, and probably another $50 in resale groups.
I justify my spending by telling myself that the girls will wear each size for 2 years.
Ok I counted and E has 45 shirts for the fall/winter. Let's say I spent about $5/each so that's $225, plus probably 15 pairs of pants and another 15 dresses. Plus shoes.
Considering she was only in 3T clothes for 8 months, I've spent more than I wanted to. I was not prepared to cloth my 2.5 year old in 4T clothes this soon :-(

I don't know but only because we haven't done much shopping yet. I also have no idea if she will size out of 2T during the fall or not - her growth spurts have been bizarre. I did buy some SKR shoes in the next size up for $16 each (two or three pairs) but still need boots. I bought a fall jacket for her on Prime Day for under $20 and my mom bought her a winter coat. I think she will be fine for September which is great because her birthday is 10/1 and her party is 10/3 so I hope people buy her lots of fall/winter clothes.

Um. I have no idea. It's hard to track because we generally have a ton of hand me downs (I have stuff up to size 7) and my mom volunteers at our church thrift store so we pick up stuff here and there for under $5 a piece of clothing.
And my mom spends all her Kohls cash and cpupons buying jackets and shoes for the kids. She hates shopping for herself.
So we are very spoiled and probably spend less than $200 a year on clothes for our kids.
I have no idea because I've been buying since spring when things were on sale. We have probably have too much but fall is crazy busy for us so we do laundry less frequently.
I'm going to guess around $400 for everything including coats, shoes, and boots. A lot of that was funded by selling outgrown clothes on the BST board.
