Finding the best kids clothes at every age is the only kind of online shopping I am enjoying right now. With a one year old son and a baby girl on the way, I find myself jumping at every kids sale email that hits my inbox -- and they are coming in fast and furious. The baby clothes I’ve ordered online are piling up, waiting for days when we can visit with friends again and celebrate all the milestones that come with early childhood.
Kids grow from one size to the next in a flash, so buying lots of clothes for them can, at times, seem nonsensical. I justify these purchases knowing that well made children’s clothes can also be passed down - my nephew is only 9 months younger than my son so these special pieces have another life ahead of them even after he grows out of them.
At nearly 8 months pregnant with a quickly-growing waistline (and like the rest of the world, with nowhere to go), I am not looking to shop for myself right now but get that shopping high from all the adorable clothes I am buying for my kids.
Marie Chantal had an online sample sale this week that made my heart race at the sight of their fanciful clothes. My virtual cart at The Gap is full of the best basics that I find myself ordering on repeat. Their Brannan bear classic cotton t-shirts and leggings are the foundation of my son s wardrobe and end up in the wash almost daily.
What is right for a newborn when it comes to clothing is not necessarily right for a toddler— all the beautiful clothes that they can wear before they start moving are quickly replaced by more practical basics that can weather the countless spills and stains that come with his discovery of anything and everything messy. What is important throughout though is that the best kids clothes are comfortable and soft to touch.
Here are 30 sweet and stylish options for kids of all ages to play in— and mothers, like me, to shop:
Newborn
Bodysuits and onesies are the way to go for newborns. You should be ready to change them frequently in those early days, so stock up.
Baby
Buying nice outfits for a baby can seem frivolous because they grow so quickly but it is fun to take advantage of this period while you can still dress them how you want.

Toddler
Stick to the basics and let your little one explore without the fear of ruining nice clothes.

Kids
Kids will likely take dressing into their own hands at this age - let them embrace it.
Pajamas for All Ages
No matter their age, children spend a lot of time in their pajamas. Comfort is key no matter the style you prefer.
