Another kids clothing question!!?

My 1st grade daughter is fine wearing jeans, tees, and sneakers. My youngest will be starting kindergarten in the fall and she LOVES to stand out in a crowd in every possible way!! So I plan to do a lot of her shopping at The Children%26#039;s Place, Limited Too, GAP, etc.





My question for all you shoppers is this~~On average, what do you think is a reasonable amount to spend on one outfit? I would like estimates that include and exclude the cost of shoes.





Please and thank you!!

Another kids clothing question!!?
I have boys and even if they don%26#039;t care about how they look, I like for them to look nice, so I shop at the same stores you mention - not for all their clothes. I also like Talbots (they have a great outlet!). I can spend $35 easy (without shoes) on an outfit and $55 for a special occasion (Holiday). If you buy pieces that can be mixed and matched with others, you can build a nice wardrobe. I believe that quality has a price. You should always hit the sale and clearance rack first.
Reply:Oh Jesus! Lets just buy our kids brand names and teach them that paying double just because it has a ceratain logo is important because the more it apppears you pay for clothes the cooler you are. Why don%26#039;t you get her implants and a brazilian butt lift as well? I think fashion is a form of self-expression, so I%26#039;m not bashing it, but as someone else mentioned, kids are going to just outgrow and/or ruin their duds anyways, so why not buy the cute but cheap non-brand-name stuff and spend the money you save on books or extra-curricular activities so she knows her mind and interests are more important than her appearance. If you emphasise looks at such a young age, she%26#039;s gonna grow up basing her self worth on her physical appearance and not on what really matters, her character.
Reply:I am a bargain shopper. I LOVE looking at amazon.com, and many other sites to find the clearance. I try not to spend more than $20 per outfit for my daughter(1 year) and about 30 for my son(7 years). Now that is because I have to buy jeans with the adjustable tabs for my son. We do not have a wal-mart or anything like like here, so I am stuck to the PX. They go through clothes so fast that I would try to find things cheap.
Reply:They are so young why buy brand names? They will get paint and grass stains on them wait a bit until it matters when their apperance is everything to them, as at the moment it doesnt.
Reply:Top - 10 to 15


Pants - 20
Reply:You`ve got a little diva, like me, my daughter did`nt really start till 3rd grade, my advice,get some stuff from sale at the stores,let her pick em out.You go to 2handed stores %26amp; buy stuff, some basics, like underclothes for layering, at the dollar store,She needs lots of clothes, my daughter likes to create her own style. If you center on wearing only brand new ,or the name you are gonna wind up in the poor house.My daughter loves all kinds ofclothes, no matter where they come from. I`ve also hadher teacher comment on them! How cool she dressed
Reply:I don%26#039;t understand why people go so overboard on kids clothes. They outgrow them or destroy them too fast. Besides that you are being very materialistic and teaching that to your children. Why not go to target and get her some outfits. They have cute things there. Then take all the extra money you would have spent and think about a child that is not as lucky. Maybe donate some children%26#039;s clothes to a battered women%26#039;s shelter or homeless shelter. Think about the bigger issues in the world then what label is in your clothes.
Reply:Well she is only in first grade and 6-7 years old so you dont want to buy very expensive clothes.. Shes gonna play hard in them, eat in them ect.. So I suggest Target for clothes and my estimate with out shoes is 20 dollars including pants(not jeans) t-shirt-sweater. With shoes.. well shoes range from 10 to 20 dollars sooo 30 to 40 dollars
Reply:FROM MY POINT OF VIEW 50 AN OUT FIT I HAD MY LITTLE BOY START K IN NAME BRAND CLOHES WE SPENT 300 DOLLARS NOT INCLUDING SHOES AND HE NOW NEEDS NEW ONES THEY DO ALOT OF ACTIVITIES AND THEY GET MESSED UP!!!
Reply:I highly suggest the thrift stores! Here%26#039;s a tip - it%26#039;s worth going to an affluent area and hitting their thrift stores. You find great brands, durable cute clothes for a fraction of the cost.
