Luckily for my bank account, there isn't much right now that is tempting me. I hope that it gets better for spring and summer.

I haven't loved anything in the boy's baby or toddler section in a while
or
? lol I did see a black and white striped dress that I would have had to buy if I had a girl though!

OMG I was just there on Monday and the girls' stuff was out of control adorable!
The boys stuff was eh--their boys' selection seems so limited, especially in store!

I think everything is disappointing right now. I had a GC to spend at a department store and couldn't find anything interesting! All the clothes are drab and no really cool/different prints. I think once we get closer to spring it will look better.
I also had a CG to use at Carter's and I was surprised at how cute some of their stuff is right now. I mean, their stuff is always cute but these items were downright spiffy!
I really liked these (they are a lot brighter in person), but my GC was for only 15 or so:
We ended up getting him this:

Yes, the boys stuff is definitely lacking. I did buy just some staples the other day like some plain sweats and plain t shirts but there wasn't anything I was loving.

Agree, I feel like a lot of the Gap stuff is loosing the "style" and getting more like carters crap (animals, cheap prints, etc). Not that all carters is bad, we have plenty of it, but most of its just NMS.

@Smurfette: they just updated their playtime favorites section, which is my favorite section now. I don't find any of it to be MUST HAVES but I'm happy to see some new options!

H&M is my go-to for D these days. Not only because their stuff is cute and cheap, but also their bottoms fit him really well with the cloth diaper. I feel like they put more room in the butt of their pants than most companies. In Carter's he's in 12-month stuff and butt-wise may need to move up relatively soon already, whereas his 9-12 month pants from H&M still have plenty of room!

@hilsy85: Well I did just look under the Toddler section and there was really cute stuff. Nothing in 6-12 is wowing me. Or maybe I just need to check it out in person.
@mediagirl: I just looked at that. Super cute stuff. Now R needs to gain some weight!

I haven't been tempted by BG since last summer!
@lilyann: my SIL bought it for LO for her bday!

@autumnlove: Ahh! It was sooo adorable & classy! They had a whole black, white and yellow section that was just to die for!
Hoping they step up their boy's section for this summer!

@Smurfette: ohhh I always forget she's still so small! I feel like you've been a mom as long as I have.

@Smurfette: The lamb dress is beyond adorable in person. I wanted to get it for M but I don't think it would look as cute since she's not standing/walking yet. I was tempted to get it for next Easter!
GOLD / wonderful coconut / 33402 posts
@mediagirl: I can't believe that she is almost 1. Time is flying by.
GOLD / wonderful coconut / 33402 posts
@lawbee11: She might be standing by April! Easter is late this year.

I haven't been tempted for a while. I'm loving some ON's Valentine's collection though.
Walked by Crewcuts yesterday and it took a lot of willpower not to go in.

I love some of the toddler girl stuff! The yellows with black and white look so cute!
The boy stuff is never as cute. Though I did get DS two valentine shirts when everything was 40% off last week.

I never find much I like at BG. The girls' stuff is adorable but the boys' selection is usually pretty meh.
GOLD / squash / 13576 posts
@Smurfette: Not in love with anything I have seen so far... I hope they step it up.
GOLD / wonderful coconut / 33402 posts
@chopsuey: I looked at ON's stuff last night online. There are some cute options. I already bought R a VDay dress from BG. She will be rocking red, pink, and hearts that whole week though.

There's some cute stuff for girls, but nothign I coudln't live without. I'm not in the mindset of spring clothes yet either, so hopefully I can hold off a couple months before doing her next season clothes!

I was just in there yesterday and spent 45 min convincing myself not to buy stuff. They had a couple really cute girls things and with clearance an additional 40% off plus GAP cash, I really wanted to do it. But, LO does not need any more clothes until at least next fall because we already have so much.
No shopping for me.

their stuff hasn't been great lately. i honestly buy way more from old navy. they did have some super cute toddler girl stuff recently, but it already sold out!
i prefer hm styles though i think gap tends to be high quality than hm.

@Smurfette: I went yesterday with my sis and felt like we had everything I'd want already. But I have noticed as I start shopping in the toddler section of the store, the clothes don't seem nearly as cute as the Baby section. Maybe because they are just more "play clothes"?
@Mrs. Bee: I love the stuff you pick for Olive! I did some damage the last 2 times I went to Old Navy! Their toddler stuff is cute!

I got a bunch of stuff on clearance from Gap after Christmas I thought it was pretty cute.

The baby boy section always stinks! I wish they had as much cute boy stuff as they do girls (as I cross my arms and pout... ) I love their girls stuff though!

I love their baby girl clothes but I couldn't find cute baby boy clothes for my nephews during Christmas. I get into so much spending trouble at Baby Gap for LO.

Really??? I am loving their girls stuff right now. The coutryside blue and green collection was really cute and the new black, white, and yellow collection is cute... as is the V-day collection.
I just got a few things on sale the other day for a total of $23! My sister gave me her Gap cash and I plan to get at least one thing from the black/yellow line.

@MrsH: The stuff from fall and early winter was cute. I got stuff on clearance after Christmas too. I meant mostly new stuff.

@Smurfette: So I got an email this morning about their new Paddington Bear collection and I am drooling over a ton of stuff. The rain coat and rain boots are so cute!!

@lawbee11: The boy stuff from the collection is just...okay. I felt like they could have done better!

Honestly the clothes everyone comments on is from old navy. They just have more fun prints and colors IMO
GOLD / wonderful coconut / 33402 posts
@lawbee11: oh really? We are going tomorrow so I will check it out.

Guess I'm in the minority but I like the b&w stuff...and the dress someone commented about earlier.
Part of why I like it is because we already have a lot of brighter/colorful stuff.
I don't look in the boys section, and just the toddler girls now. I also have a heart dress for v day that I think is cute.
Most f LOs clothes are still carters/ON... Still a better value for money.
