My favorites are Gap, Tea and Livie & Luca. I've recently found some resale sites for gently used nicer brands, that's how I found Livie and Luca shoes at a reasonable price!!!

Carter's and Gap. I like the quality of Boden also, but their a lil pricey for me when he was an infant since they grow so quickly. I'll look into buying from them again when DS gets more wear out of a shirt than a handful of times.

@Alivoo01: yes exactly! I was all Carter's when M was a baby. Now that I can get a year or two out of an outfit, I go for the more pricey things that I can resell when we're done with them for the same or slightly less than we paid used.

Old Navy still fits her the best generally. But, I think I need to branch out of the leggings and tshirt stuff. Time to buy some REAL clothes for her

Livie Luca shoes are the BEST! Love Matilda Jane, Boden, HM, Old Navy and a little Tarjey &Carters in there too.

Gap, ON and Carter's.
We have had two Tea Collection outfits which I loved but they're hard to find around here and pricey. I usually just buy her stuff online durin Gap/ON sales.

Old navy, gap, target, and tea. Not a fan of Carter's except for their sleepers and bibs.

Old navy, target, sometimes gap, Janie & Jack (though I rarely spend money there), H&M. I don't love to spend a ton on kids clothes.

Gymboree for leggings. They're the only ones that are slim enough and long enough for my tall and skinny girls! I also buy a lot of other clothes from there... I find that Gymboree clothes wash better (fade less) than Gap clothes.
SKR for shoes.
Stride Rite for first walkers.

@Rainbow Sprinkles: I love Gymboree PJs! The material is so much better and is softer than Old Navy. I bought a size up last summer and she is still wearing some of those PJs now (short sleeves with short sets). Love using their Gymbucks too.
I also like Tea, Boden, and different brands from Nordstrom Rack.
SKR and Stride Rite for shoes.

@Kimberlybee: We also love their PJs! I got the girls Christmas PJs from there, and they still wear them now and they look brand new!

Gap, Tea, Peek, random IG brands, and more Gymboree lately because DD loves twirly dresses. Old Navy and H&M have fun, trendy pieces I like for style, but I don't think they hold up as well. Love Gymboree, Gap, and Hanna Andersson for pjs. Saltwaters, Freshly Picked, Mini Melissa's, and Nikes are shoe faves.

Petit Bateau and Gap for clothes. Aigle rain boots. Keens sandals.

@shopaholic: How do you get her to keep her Mini Melissa's on?
I am pretty loyal to Gap. The rest of her wardrobe is usually from Cotton On and Target.

@AprilFool: she loves them! Only once when she was teething she chewed the strap a little (but I've read that happens for some reason they're attracted to biting the mini Melissa's?). She doesn't try to take them off, but she does try to put them on herself, and sonetimes plays with the strap Velcro on/off when she's bored in the car.

Oh and I'm now a huge fan of Lands End for kids swimsuits. They have long sleeve rash guards for a good price.

For boys, Ralph Lauren and Janie and Jack for nicer things, Gymboree and The Childrens Place for basics. I like Lands End for coats and snow pants, Merrell, Keens, Saucony for shoes/boots.

I like H&M. Affordable, hip enough for me, and almost fits my tall slim girl. For shoes I like Stride Rite SRT or Pediped.

I buy a lot of one off things from independent stores, but my go-to stores are Gap, Old Navy, Zara and H&M.

Gap and Carter's for basics; Mini Boden, Tucker & Tate and Pumpkin Patch for mid-level, and Janie & Jack for special occasion

My boys wear Carters mostly, with some Target and Old navy. I think they look cute and the price is right.

Old Navy (so easy, cute, and not too pricey), Carters (especially for babies, fits well), Tea Collection (cute!! love their patterns but expensive), Baby Gap (cuter for babies than older toddlers but I still find some cute dresses and other stuff in there!), H&M (similar reasons to ON), Gymboree, and Janie and Jack (for special occasion like Christmas dresses, but not too often because it's expensive!)

@Rainbow Sprinkles: Gymboree saves my life for pants for my tall stringbean. Their slim size girls jeans are a god-send.
It used to be Carter's, but their toddler selection and sales piss me off and I hardly shop there now. Most of her stuff is from Target, Old Navy, Gymboree and H&M. I likw Children's Place for cheapy basics I dont have to worry about her ruining at daycare.

I buy 80% used. I like Gymboree and Baby Gap. Tea collection can be amazing, but can also be pretty meh quality. I love the styles of Janie and Jack, but find they don't hold up terribly well - Except their jeans. Love their jeans when I can get them, which isn't often because of a limited budget, so I can only get them when I find them at thrift stores...
