Especially since I have 2 girls and looking at the first set of Old Navy ones I bought they look really worn and grimey compared to the excellent in shape ones that my oldest is wearing from Primary for a second year now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shorts-for-under-dresses#post-2887238 Fri, 07 Jun 2019 15:20:34 +0000 peachykeen 2887238@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Second everyone else that primary is the best - we've tried several brands. J Crew factory are good too, but I think Primary are cheaper at regular price at least. They knock off $1/piece if you buy 3+ and your first order is 15% off FYI. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shorts-for-under-dresses#post-2887208 Fri, 07 Jun 2019 14:00:41 +0000 missyoori 2887208@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Same, my girls wear bike shorts underneath their dresses. I buy most of them at Children's Place, some at Target. They prefer them to their bermuda shorts, "much softer" they say :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shorts-for-under-dresses#post-2887105 Fri, 07 Jun 2019 08:00:29 +0000 lindseykaye 2887105@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Same as many of the above posters: Target, Old Navy, Carter's are typically what I pick up and all of these tend to last for a long time thanks to the stretch. I don't mind a little fading since they're not meant to be seen much. </p> <p>We require LO to wear "shorties" under skirts and dresses if we are leaving the house, but not if we're just hanging at home. We have a good stock of black, white, navy, gray, and pink. As well as a handful of prints that have come with multi-packs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shorts-for-under-dresses#post-2887104 Fri, 07 Jun 2019 07:29:32 +0000 Iced Tea 2887104@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@HappyBaker: Agreed. Our primary ones look so much better than our target and old navy ones after some wear. They've held their color much better and haven't piled at all, unlike the Target and Old Navy ones. My second daughter is wearing Primary hand-me-downs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shorts-for-under-dresses#post-2887096 Fri, 07 Jun 2019 05:56:48 +0000 Bluebonnet 2887096@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I second @HappyBaker: we love Primary’s under shorts! We can get at least 2 years of wear out of them before they grow out of them, but they’re still in great shape to hand down. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shorts-for-under-dresses#post-2887091 Fri, 07 Jun 2019 01:38:22 +0000 agold 2887091@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Target and carters. Black, white, navy, grey and pink. </p> <p>Always use the bike shorts. This is one of my pet peeves. Seeing diapers or underwear under dresses. I hate that bloomers stop coming with outfits after 12m size. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shorts-for-under-dresses#post-2887069 Thu, 06 Jun 2019 20:43:45 +0000 HappyBaker 2887069@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We like these from Primary because they are short enough to not show beneath the dress - <a href="https://www.primary.com/shop/kids/shorts/the-under-short?color=raspberry&#038;ref=plp_pdp_2&#038;size=2-3" rel="nofollow">https://www.primary.com/shop/kids/shorts/the-under-short?color=raspberry&#038;ref=plp_pdp_2&#038;size=2-3</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shorts-for-under-dresses#post-2887017 Thu, 06 Jun 2019 15:53:26 +0000 graceandjoy 2887017@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Basic bike shorts as well; I've gotten them from Target/ON. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shorts-for-under-dresses#post-2887016 Thu, 06 Jun 2019 15:50:44 +0000 skinnycow 2887016@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use these for DD: </p> <p><a href="https://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=391315002" rel="nofollow">https://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=391315002</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shorts-for-under-dresses#post-2887012 Thu, 06 Jun 2019 15:37:18 +0000 catgirl 2887012@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD wears basic bike shorts. We have some from target (cat and jack), old navy, and kohls (jumping beans). All seem pretty equal. We buy black, navy, and white - those seem to match everything we need them to. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shorts-for-under-dresses#post-2887008 Thu, 06 Jun 2019 15:31:31 +0000 Mrs. Toad 2887008@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 2.5 yr old daughter enjoys wearing dresses. What kind of shorts do you recommend? She's currently in diapers, but I hope to potty train in the fall. </p>
