I like it about 50% of the time.
The other 50% not so much--especially when the items of clothing aren't my style.

I think at first no, but I think everyone knows her style now so I got a lot of really nice things for her birthday!

Haha same here! I'm picky when it comes to what LO wears though. Sometimes extra clothes are helpful but then again, I'd rather wash my favorite clothes he has than dress him in something hideous...not to sound ungrateful!

I'm also 50/50...Sometimes I LOVE the outfits, sometimes I think they're not so nice. But I accept graciously.

i do because i don't like buying clothes until they're walking. they outgrow them too quickly before 1 for me to justify spending a lot, so i'm not super picky about what to put olive in now!

Hmm, I like it when they get things I like? I'm picky. And I take things I don't like to the consignment store (shhhh, don't tell!)

I appreciate it, but yeah often times I end up with something not so cute.
I got a couple really ugly 90's style outfits for my shower, and no gift receipt. I doubt he'll ever even wear them haha!

I haven't really had too much of an issue with getting ugly clothes but I've had so many people get DS clothes that are seasonally inappropriate and that makes me crazy!!

I love it when my mom buys him clothes. She has the exact same taste as me. When my MIL buys clothes, she buys the wrong season, the wrong size and stuff I never put him in. I think she's starting to catch on that I hate what she buys... Teehee...

I would prefer cash or giftcards. People usually do okay, but sometimes it's even a sizing issue. I just spent the better part of today doing birthday returns and exchanges and it was pretty frustrating.

I do! Mostly its the sil closest to my age. She is a huge fan of old navy and stuff so we always get cute stuff from her. Come ti think of it I have like everything but a couple outfits so far. I must be lucky. Lol.

Depends who it's from... Usually not. I'm super picky about the clothes they wear! Of course I'm grateful, but most clothes get returned , exchanged or donated we definitely have a ton of clothes for them anyway.

In general, no. It's usually not my style, wrong size, wrong season, etc. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate a gift, but the time I spend doing returns sometimes wastes a lot of effort, gas, time and money.

Funny, I was just thinking about this myself. I get so many outfits I don't get to shop myself! I wish I got to shop on my own more.

Love gifts! Some are not my style but it's all good!

I'm not picky. It's hard to find baby girl clothes that aren't cute, and really as long as I'm not paying for them I don't care.
