Everybody knows that hitting up the thrift stores, rummaging through clearance racks, getting hand-me-downs, and using coupons are great ways to save dough. But what about recycling? Princess grows so fast, sometimes I can’t keep up with her wardrobe. What I can do is find ways to have her wear her clothes for as long as possible. I also like buying clothes from this cute baby girl clothes boutique. This dress was gifted to her by daddy’s co-worker. It’s size 6-9 months and she’s 18 months old. I managed to turn it into baby doll top. When paired with jeans, a long sleeve onesie and cute kicks, you have a bangin’ outfit!
Forget about seasons! I’ve been known to dress her in summer clothes during the winter too. It’s all about pairing garments the right way. The longer she rocks her baby gear, the more mula we save! How do you save on clothes for your little one?

Oh, I have no shame about going around and looking for hand me downs from friends and family. Usually people are grateful to get all of the stuff out of their house without having to lift a finger. Most people have clothes that baby outgrew before he had a chance to wear them with tags still on them!
I’m with you Tara! I have no shame in hand-me-downs. Though it may be tacky to some, I’ve re-gifted some of Princess clothes that were either never worn or duplicates. These kids grow so fast, you might as well get good use out of stuff.
Princess is just the cutest baby ever! You seem to always make sure she is fabulously dressed… kudos mom! I must remember to refer to your blog for some ideas when I become a mom 🙂
Awww. That’s very sweet of you! Thanks Goldenangel!
I do the exact same thing! I am determined to have the cheapest kuds ever!

Girl I do the same thing! hahah I have used too small dresses as tops for my 3 year old for years! I thought I was the only one (and felt like such a bad mom). Thanks for making me feel better! 😉 LOL
