Easter Outfits for Boys?

[LILRTL]

We all know there are gobs and gobs of cute little Easter dresses for little girls. What about the cute outfits for the boys? I personally don't like preppy-preppy outfits (think pastel blue, lightweight materials, etc.). So - moms of boys - where do you find your outfits?

[Jenyfer9]

subscribing because I'd be interested in hearing what anyone has to say...

[cartersmommy]

ohhhhhhhhhhhh found the cutest outfit at babygap!! let me go look for it.....
it's adorable (i think!)

with his name on it in blue. ($18 from PBK!)

[cartersmommy]

ok, just read that you don't like the pastel colors.... SORRY! :(

[LeslieR]

Before Luke was born, we bought an adorable sailor suit on clearance at Macy's. Aren't all baby boys required to wear a sailor suit for Easter?:p ;) It's a size 18mos, so a little big, but I can't wait to try it on him. I don't usually like baby-ish stuff for Luke, but this is just too cute.

[cartersmommy]

that blue bunny outfit i posted also comes in green if you don't like the light blue....

[LILRTL]

ok, just read that you don't like the pastel colors.... SORRY! :(

No, no - those were great! I will post a pic of what I meant...

Stuff like this - with the collared shirts - just not my style!

[cartersmommy]

gottcha ;)
i agree, not my style either. i love that second bunny outfit.... too cute! :) and they could wear the onesie with jeans too, or just little shorts, whatever. very fun! they also have bucket hats to match! ha!

[cartersmommy]

from old navy: (you have me on a mission!)

http://www.oldnavy.com/Asset_Archive/ONWeb/Assets/Product/360/360004/main/on360004-09p01v01.jpg
with these:
http://www.oldnavy.com/Asset_Archive/ONWeb/Assets/Product/323/323517/main/on323517-03p01v01.jpg

would be fun too!

[Phen]

Oh geez, LILRTL, if you don't like jon jons and rompers and you live in the South, what *is* there to wear?! I thought all Southern boys were required by law to wear them. ;)

Last year, Children's Place and Gap had cute seersucker pants and matching jackets. My guys wore the pants with matching polo shirts for Easter. This year I'm hunting down sailor suits for Easter.

Soooo, you probably don't like this:

or anything similar, right?

Seriously-is it just me? I really though all boys wore sailor suits for Easter!

It's not just you, babe! It's just not *me*! ;)

[LILRTL]

Phen I know, I know! To me, they just look...well...I don't think it is possible to say how I feel about them without offending anyone. So, I will just say they aren't my style! :)

I LOVED this...but don't want to spend $150 on one outfit! :o

[cartersmommy]

oh i know! but you could do a rendition of it. you could get pants somewhere else?

[LeslieR]

Oh no, I totally hear you. Like I said, I don't normally like stuff like that either (especially the jon jons, and bubble type rompers).

No problem. Can you tell Luke's taking a nap right now?:p

I think I might have to check out Target myself!

[LILRTL]

lol He and Zach must be on the same wavelength today!

[JillyB]

During lunch today, I ran to Kaufmann's (I was actually looking for St. Patty's Day clothes, but I didn't find anything), and they had just gotten in a bunch of new Polo stuff. It was all super cute...They had bunches of stuff you could mix/match...like sweater vests in different colors, "big boy" button-down shirts in a variety of colors, and cute khaki pants. I'm not big on "pastel" colors for our little man, so I'm probably going to go with something like I saw today...more along the lines of mini-Daddy clothes! :D

I went into our Baby Gap too, and I just didn't see anything that "struck my fancy".

[pontmarie]

Children's Place also has those vests.

[Jenyfer9]

Ok, maybe it's just my kids, but I HATE how sweater vests look on my little ones. They never fit just right, either too big or too small. We tried doing that last year on ds#1 and I LOVED the outfit on the hanger. Put it on my son and BLECK!

Are there any options that aren't sweater vests?

So, you don't like sweater vests, huh? :p ;) J/K

[Jenyfer9]

This is why I'm doomed to have all boys. :p :o

[lil_nance]

I like the yellow sweater vest and blue pants that LeslieR posted. And I LOVE the Gap bunny onesie. Think I might have to get that even if not for Easter.

[LeslieR]

Sailor suits!:p

Seriously, though. What about a polo shirt instead of the button down and sweater vest? Or just a button down? With some khakis, of course.

Sailor suits!:p




LMAO! :D

[Jenyfer9]

I don't live far enough south to have sailor suits available :D

[LyLMyssChaos]

I got something that looked very similar to that last year at Wal-mart for $15, it was my son's church outfit. I would check out what Wallyworld has.

Not a sailor suit, but still nautical!

From my old company...near and dear to my heart.
http://www.hartstrings.com/images/site1/products/processed/B4127Set.d.a.jpg

On a side note, our dear Aunt sent us a 24 month Easter outfit. God love her, she was very very kind to do so, but I really really am not diggin' it. DS can't wear it this year for Easter and I'm not so sure he would fit in it for next Easter. It's so Easter specific that I feel sorta bad if I don't put him in it for next Easter IF he is even a 24 month at that time. Good thing is, she lives in Florida...oh well.

[LeslieR]

I don't live far enough south to have sailor suits available :D

Hey, I live in New England!:p I bet you could find them at Marshall Fields easily. (I used to live in Chicagoland.)

You can find brand new ones on eBay (look for NWT [new with tags]).

[JillyB]

Y'all are cracking me up with your love/hate of sweater vests and sailor suits! :p And Leslie, you would get along famously with my Mom. She also believes that Easter for little boys = sailor suit.

[cartersmommy]

And Leslie, you would get along famously with my Mom. She also believes that Easter for little boys = sailor suit

MINE TOO!! too funny!

[L-O-V-E]

We went with that first GAP outfit that was posted. I have a thing for putting DS in hats, so as soon as I saw the matching hat, I was sold. :D

[LeslieR]

And Leslie, you would get along famously with my Mom. She also believes that Easter for little boys = sailor suit.


I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing. lol I distinctly remember my brothers wearing sailor suits for Easter and I've seen pics of my DH as a baby in a sailor suit, too. It must be a mom thing! Yesterdays moms, that is.:p

[Pookie]

I know the OP said no sailor suits and pastels, but if anyone else is interested there are really cute outfits in The Wooden Soldier catalog. They're kind of pricy $, but Grammy wants to buy DS's Easter outfit. I also heard Gymbo's Easter line was coming out today. Unfortunately Wal-Mart isn't working size-wise for us right now. DS is very much in 9-12 months and I've haven't been able to find that there.

Dotsie-I kinda like sailer suits too! :D

I'm disappointed in Gymboree's Easter line. I do like what the Gap has out right now.

My MIL hates it when we dress DS up like a "little man" so since we'll be with her for Easter, we'll have to find something else. Probably a sailor suit. ;)
