However, my moms best friend had a little boy who was only a couple months younger than me and she used to sew us matching smocked outfits. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-wear-matching-outfits-with-your-siblings#post-1102342 Sat, 21 Sep 2013 02:35:07 +0000 Sapphiresun 1102342@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep. My mom sewed a lot of our clothes so if she got a steal on a bolt of fabric in any given season she'd make us both everything out of it, Von trapp style. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-wear-matching-outfits-with-your-siblings#post-1102249 Fri, 20 Sep 2013 22:23:13 +0000 Glitter 1102249@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>All.

My mom sewed all of our clothes growing up so there were a lot of matching outfits for special occasions. The sad thing is my sister is 7 years older than me so it was less cute and more "Awkward Family Photos." </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-wear-matching-outfits-with-your-siblings#post-1102213 Fri, 20 Sep 2013 21:24:40 +0000 Ree723 1102213@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: Lol!!!

She was always yellow to match her brown hair and brown eyes, and I was always blue to match my light brown hair and blue eyes! I think it was kind of cute...</p> <p>If this next LO is a girl, she'll b 19 months younger than DD and I will totally be guilty of dressing them in matching outfits in different colours! I love it! Not all the time, but just for special occasions! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-wear-matching-outfits-with-your-siblings#post-1102140 Fri, 20 Sep 2013 20:35:49 +0000 lovehoneybee 1102140@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My stepmother liked to buy the same thing outfits for me and my stepsister (a year younger), but in different colors. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-wear-matching-outfits-with-your-siblings#post-1102137 Fri, 20 Sep 2013 20:34:05 +0000 Rubies 1102137@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bpcmarj: Those look like Gap sweaters! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-wear-matching-outfits-with-your-siblings#post-1102126 Fri, 20 Sep 2013 20:25:46 +0000 mrbee 1102126@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup we were identical twins in identical outfits! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-wear-matching-outfits-with-your-siblings#post-1102096 Fri, 20 Sep 2013 20:07:41 +0000 autumnlove 1102096@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: I'm mean! :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-wear-matching-outfits-with-your-siblings#post-1102029 Fri, 20 Sep 2013 19:24:08 +0000 Andrea 1102029@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have no desire to make my 2 daughters match! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-wear-matching-outfits-with-your-siblings#post-1101995 Fri, 20 Sep 2013 19:01:00 +0000 Smurfette 1101995@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep!!

Especially when there is a clear age difference! When I was younger and asked my mom why people did that she said it may be cheaper to buy two of the same if they're on sale and there is a budget, or easier to keep up with the children when out and about. Whether or not this is true, I'm glad she never did it to us hehe. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-wear-matching-outfits-with-your-siblings#post-1101771 Fri, 20 Sep 2013 16:28:58 +0000 chopsuey 1101771@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>HAha if I had 2 girls I'd totally make them wear the same outfit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-wear-matching-outfits-with-your-siblings#post-1101748 Fri, 20 Sep 2013 16:14:33 +0000 autumnlove 1101748@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@plantains: Too cute! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-wear-matching-outfits-with-your-siblings#post-1101693 Fri, 20 Sep 2013 15:43:19 +0000 plantains 1101693@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mum did this to my sister and I because we were less than two years apart. Seriously, we were dressed alike 80% of the time. It was really annoying because I felt like I wasn't allowed to have my own identity but I have to admit, the pictures are cute. </p> [attach=1440/13/mtfyw7.600x493.pic1016.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-wear-matching-outfits-with-your-siblings#post-1101689 Fri, 20 Sep 2013 15:40:36 +0000 MsMamaBear 1101689@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Unfortunately, yes. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-wear-matching-outfits-with-your-siblings#post-1101662 Fri, 20 Sep 2013 15:23:37 +0000 little_d 1101662@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My sister and I were always put in matching outfits (we are four years apart). Some of the outfits were cute, others....not so much. Our names rhyme as well (I know!), so the matching outfits were kind of over the top imho. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-wear-matching-outfits-with-your-siblings#post-1101654 Fri, 20 Sep 2013 15:20:35 +0000 lemondrop 1101654@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, we never did.</p> <p>@autumnlove: rats, I was hoping it would be a bonding thing this young. Oh well, I'm still getting matching jammies for when littlest one comes home! </p> <p>I guess E already knows it's a faux pas to show up at a party wearing the same dress as someone else? ;) At least she doesn't have to do the hand me downs, that may be too much for her, lol! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-wear-matching-outfits-with-your-siblings#post-1101653 Fri, 20 Sep 2013 15:20:20 +0000 avivoca 1101653@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They didn't match exactly, but they were similar. It was fun for awhile, but for my 6th grade school picture/her 4th grade school picture, we were wearing these hideous similar dresses my grandma sent and that was the last time we ever dressed almost alike. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-wear-matching-outfits-with-your-siblings#post-1101633 Fri, 20 Sep 2013 15:11:41 +0000 lilteacherbee 1101633@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, we are almost exactly 3 years apart and my mom did it all the time. I'm petite and always have been, so at some point (I think when I was about 7 and she was 4), we were the same size. I'm sure people thought we were twins. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-wear-matching-outfits-with-your-siblings#post-1101607 Fri, 20 Sep 2013 14:59:31 +0000 autumnlove 1101607@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@emg86: She is only 20 months old..haha! </p>
