Not a fan at all. </p> <p>I'll get BG stuff at consignment shops, but in general can't bring myself to spend more than $10 on any piece of clothing. He only wears it a few times, it's not worth it to me. </p> <p>I have some Carters basics, but I don't particularly like clothing with graphics or slogans, so I pass by a lot of their stuff (except pajamas). I got the bulk of his fall/winter clothes from H&amp;M, with a few things from Old Navy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-baby-clothes-brands-are-to-hyped-up/page/2#post-1184458 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 10:54:10 +0000 plantains 1184458@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I despise Gymboree, the quality is offensive for the price. Crazy. </p> <p>I stick to Next, Zara, Gap, H&amp;M and ON. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-baby-clothes-brands-are-to-hyped-up/page/2#post-1184344 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 10:33:29 +0000 T-Mom 1184344@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlek: that's awesome that you won that Boden contest! I always wondered who was winning those. They actually just sent me a $10 coupon yesterday. Once in a while they send me stuff like that to keep me buying, I guess ;-)</p> <p>I think pretty much all baby clothing is overpriced, but that doesn't stop me from buying what I like and I only shop sales. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-baby-clothes-brands-are-to-hyped-up/page/2#post-1184130 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 09:42:34 +0000 photojane 1184130@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>All of them? Ha. For clothes that are worn two or three times, and are often covered in milk + veggies, anything over $10 is crazy. All of her pricier clothes are from the grandparents! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-baby-clothes-brands-are-to-hyped-up/page/2#post-1184121 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 09:39:36 +0000 mrsjyw 1184121@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't like Tea Collection (because I don't have a girl and don't like their boy stuff)</p> <p>I don't like Gymboree or HA (not a huge fan of patterns)</p> <p>I think all luxe brand (burberry, etc.) and CrewCuts, etc. are all overpriced for baby clothes, especially when they're growing out of sizes overnight!</p> <p>BabyGap, Janie&amp;Jack are affordable for us with sales/clearances/coupons. And Mini Boden too at Nordstrom/Rack/Sales </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-baby-clothes-brands-are-to-hyped-up/page/2#post-1184092 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 09:33:14 +0000 StbHisMrs 1184092@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlek: Really? That is so awesome, I didn't know about that!! They truly are my favorite brand, I just wish they weren't as expensive as they are. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-baby-clothes-brands-are-to-hyped-up/page/2#post-1184090 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 09:32:59 +0000 Lindsay05 1184090@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I knew a mom who would only dress their child in baby gap clothes and even if anyone bought her anything else, refused to dress her in it. I am not a huge fan of babygap style and seems very over priced. To each their own though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-baby-clothes-brands-are-to-hyped-up/page/2#post-1184055 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 09:26:11 +0000 littlek 1184055@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@StbHisMrs: I actually won a contest the other day with mini boden. I guess whenever you order off their site you are entered into a monthly drawing, and if they choose your name, your order is free! :) We also did the buy 3 get the 4th item free sale a month or so ago. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-baby-clothes-brands-are-to-hyped-up/page/2#post-1184051 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 09:24:50 +0000 StbHisMrs 1184051@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlek: I love love love boden, just not the price. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-baby-clothes-brands-are-to-hyped-up/page/2#post-1183643 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 07:40:37 +0000 Weagle 1183643@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlek: Girl, you know I love Mini Boden too. We're still wearing dresses from last year and they look brand new! Such great quality. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-baby-clothes-brands-are-to-hyped-up/page/2#post-1183641 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 07:38:38 +0000 littlek 1183641@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@StbHisMrs: Really, Mini Boden? I puffy heart LOVE mini boden. </p> <p>I don't like Carters because I feel everyone has it and I hate the slogons. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-baby-clothes-brands-are-to-hyped-up#post-1183617 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 07:28:39 +0000 Weagle 1183617@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@betsyboop: Yes on Hanna Andersson. Just for the style though. I don't like the style, but they wear really well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-baby-clothes-brands-are-to-hyped-up#post-1183537 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 06:09:49 +0000 SugarplumsMom 1183537@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Here in Sweden, it's definitely Polarn o. Pyret. They have excellent outerwear that's worth the money (on sale), but the regular clothes are way overpriced and most aren't even cute. I think Baby Gap clothes are just as durable and a ton cuter (with better selection) than Po.P. Aside from that, the sizes are ginormous! Overalls from there are bigger than a size up in H&amp;M overalls and H&amp;M run big. Have I mentioned that last season they essentially only had 2 colors in rain gear? Red and navy striped -_- </p> <p>DD has a few pieces that were gifted. But their outerwear is the only thing I'd personally buy and recommend. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-baby-clothes-brands-are-to-hyped-up#post-1183534 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 06:07:28 +0000 looch 1183534@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: how much is it for?</p> <p>I buy from everywhere as long as the stuff is on sale. Janie and Jack has these long sleeved reversible tees that are superb, because my son will only tolerate one shirt and he doesn't like button downs. They're super soft and when they're on sale, I stock up!</p> <p>I find Old Navy to be very disappointing. I buy fleece or jersey lined cargos for my son every year and the ones from Old Navy are just off in color and cheap looking (shiny) compared to the ones I get from Gymboree. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-baby-clothes-brands-are-to-hyped-up#post-1183527 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 05:57:25 +0000 BananaPancakes 1183527@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't buy anything that isn't heavily clearanced, anyways, but I personally don't like anything at Janie and Jack for both price and style. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-baby-clothes-brands-are-to-hyped-up#post-1183520 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 05:34:43 +0000 LittleFox 1183520@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Confetti: I agree on mini style being overrated. I try to dress LO in cute clothes that fit the style I prefer, but I won't sacrifice cost. </p> <p>In the 10 months since DS was born, I think I have paid full price for 2-3 things. We wait for everything to go on big clearance sales at Kohl's, Target, Carter's, Old Navy, BRU, or even Walmart, or buy consignment. I wait for things to cost $2-3 per item. It's what is in our budget right now, and anything more pricey is a gift or hand me down. We actually still end up with lots of cute, durable, clothes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-baby-clothes-brands-are-to-hyped-up#post-1183515 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 05:21:50 +0000 rachiecakes 1183515@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: I think Tea is sooo cute for girls! I'm really disappointed that the kimono style shirts and leaves/swirls/etc. prints don't cross over to the boys clothes. I'd totally buy it for DS.<br /> DS lives in BabyGap :)</p> <p>@Kimberlybee: I just bought three shirts, a pair of pants and a double pack of socks for $11! Great sales! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-baby-clothes-brands-are-to-hyped-up#post-1183489 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 01:56:18 +0000 loveisstrange 1183489@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not a Tea or Babygap fan. I think it's way overpriced.</p> <p>I, personally, love cutesy stuff and Gymboree. Lol. Their clothing is really good quality and I buy most of it used for really good prices. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-baby-clothes-brands-are-to-hyped-up#post-1183474 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 00:52:53 +0000 Kimberlybee 1183474@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>All the brands mentioned here have great sales! You don't have to buy it full price. It's cheaper to buy sales items at BabyGap or Gymboree than buying full priced items at Walmart or Target. I like to buy Juicy Couture and Tea Collection from Nordstrom Rack if the price is right for my budget. Love love BabyGap. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-baby-clothes-brands-are-to-hyped-up#post-1183472 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 00:42:30 +0000 shopaholic 1183472@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>To each their own. I love Baby Gap and Tea Collection! So soft, washes well, comfortable for baby, and doesn't shrink. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-baby-clothes-brands-are-to-hyped-up#post-1183467 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 00:32:43 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 1183467@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Bobo Choses.</p> <p>Omg. SO expensive, and kind of weird looking. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-baby-clothes-brands-are-to-hyped-up#post-1183465 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 00:30:22 +0000 dojo 1183465@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really don't like anything at Gymboree! I think we have one pair of jammies that are cute but only because they are pretty plain. We don't really have many things that are from any pricey places except for things I've bought used. </p> <p>I like Carters for the price but they just don't have the greatest selection for boys. Most of LO's clothes are Old Navy and Gap (always bought on sale or used). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-baby-clothes-brands-are-to-hyped-up#post-1183394 Tue, 29 Oct 2013 22:21:00 +0000 mrsjazz 1183394@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bao: I don't buy Gap. I bought a couple of things from there when LO was a newborn and didn't think the price was worth it. I just can't justify the cost for clothes that she's going to grow out of. I hadn't heard of Tea Collection before HB. </p> <p>I stick to Carter's, H&amp;M, Children's Place, Old Navy, and whatever I can get on deal from Amazon Prime. My mom has bought LO some Gymboree stuff. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-baby-clothes-brands-are-to-hyped-up#post-1183383 Tue, 29 Oct 2013 22:05:57 +0000 autumnlove 1183383@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hanna Andersson, Janie &amp; Jack and Gymboree.</p> <p>I think Tea is ok but I only have a few items that were gifts.</p> <p>I like Hanna Andersson sleepers!</p> <p>I shop at Target, Kohl's, Carter's, Baby Gap, H&amp;M, Oshkosh and Old Navy but I try to wait for sales, promo codes and coupons! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-baby-clothes-brands-are-to-hyped-up#post-1183363 Tue, 29 Oct 2013 21:50:19 +0000 StbHisMrs 1183363@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hanna Andersson<br /> Mini &amp; Baby Boden<br /> Juicy<br /> Janie and Jack<br /> Gap<br /> Crewcuts<br /> Tea</p> <p>It's basically ALL overpriced. I especially don't like Gymboree, IMO it does not hold up well on the wash, except for Gymmies I love those!</p> <p>I buy all the above brands second hand, except Gymboree.</p> <p>I found a woman on Ebay who says she takes her daughter into J&amp;J twice a year and buys 1 of everything for her daughter, which amounts to apx $3000!! Can you imagine? I don't think I could spend $6000 a year in one store for one kid even if I was a millionaire I just couldn't! I checked her current and ended listed and sure enough. Missed the auction by a day.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-baby-clothes-brands-are-to-hyped-up#post-1183362 Tue, 29 Oct 2013 21:48:54 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1183362@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Gymboree - for sure! I don't like their style at all.<br /> Janie and Jack is SUPER cute! But agree that they are way overpriced for kids clothes. There were a few times I entertained the thought of buying something when it was on clearance but never did.<br /> I also don't think Carters is cute for boys past the 9 month age. But they are cheap so I check them out every now and then. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-baby-clothes-brands-are-to-hyped-up#post-1183339 Tue, 29 Oct 2013 21:29:02 +0000 betsyboop 1183339@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I forgot to mention hanna andersson too. Not my style. And agree with comments about gymboree! I guess hating on all these brands makes shopping less complicated! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-baby-clothes-brands-are-to-hyped-up#post-1183312 Tue, 29 Oct 2013 21:08:32 +0000 Mrs. Yoyo 1183312@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rachiecakes: agree about tea collection for boys! Soooo boring.</p> <p>Not a fan of Gymboree and most Carters. Pretty much everything I buy is Old Navy or Baby Gap (on sale) or sometimes Target. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-baby-clothes-brands-are-to-hyped-up#post-1183307 Tue, 29 Oct 2013 21:03:27 +0000 Andrea 1183307@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have been trying to use a J&amp;J gift card for almost a year now. I am not into their style. Tea collection as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-baby-clothes-brands-are-to-hyped-up#post-1183258 Tue, 29 Oct 2013 20:37:11 +0000 Weagle 1183258@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Tea, Gymboree, J&amp;J, designer clothes in little people sizes... And if BabyGap wasn't good quality I would say that. I don't love many of their designs. </p>
