Living on less....fall clothing

In an effort to organize a list of clothing "needs" for this coming Spring, I am going to look back and see what the children really wore during the fall/winter of this year.

Wyatt - 1 yr-old boy
Footed Fleece rompers - he wore these to sleep in, play in, and even run errands in.

2 Favorite Mini Boden outfits - these 2 outfits outshown the rest and he wore these all the time

1 Gymboree monkey outfit

2 holiday sweaters - 1 for fall and 1 for Christmas (nutcracker sweater from Janie & Jack)

Gap jeans - 3 pairs

socks

chore boots for outside

leather boots for church/casual wear

William

fleece pj's with socks

Homemade fleece longies w/ long sleeve tees

sweater/coat/fleece zipup for outside play

chore boots

ankle boots for church/casual

2 holiday sweaters (same as above)

Gap jeans

Boden flannel pants w/matching tee (x2 sets)

2 pairs of rib waist cargos from Boden that I LOVED w/ random tee's

tennis shoes

socks from children's place

Hannah

Knit dresses with knit pants/tights underneath

Knit pants with matching tee's

Holiday dresses Thanksgiving & Christmas & New Years

2/3 church dresses

matching pj sets (warm)

chore boots

land's end mary janes/pedi peds for dressy & casual/boots

Hannah had a lot of mini boden but it ended up being too wide for her and she hardly wore any of it. I am hoping it will still fit for next year.

Abigail - (my biggest challenge to buy for)

knit dresses w/tights/knit pants

matching pjs

pencil skirts

sweaters - zip up

tee's for layering

boots

ballet flats

chore boots

lots of accessories, scarfs...ect

Now looking at what we DID wear will make buying for future seasons easier. My goal is to NOT BUY those things that only get worn once or do not get worn at all! So the first step is pinpointing what we DID wear.

I challenge each of you to do this so your clothes budget goes farther. Buy less, wear it more often!
