Baby clothes you just can't live without

Categories: Newborns, Babies, Toddlers, Baby essentials, Kid decor & style

When it comes to my toddler's clothes, I'll try anything once. You could say I'm easily influenced by hip baby boutiques and trendy items. However, many times those particular items don't work out in the long run. So when I do find an item that fits the bill, I buy in bulk. I guess it's not any different than the way I shop for myself- if I love something, count me in for several colors of the same style.

That being said, I'm pretty sure we have at least six colors of the American Apparel Infant Rib Karate Pants. These pants grace the legs of my child year-round. Lounging around the house? Karate pants. Running errands on the weekend? Karate Pants. Neighbor's birthday party? You guessed it, Karate Pants.

The pants are made from 100% Baby Rib cotton, which are combed for softness (they are SO cozy!), and have a wider-cut leg that seems a little more fashionable than other cuts. Most importantly, these pants are durable. I can't tell you how many times they have been washed and dried over the past few months, not to mention the CRAWLING they have endured.

I'm fairly certain these pants and the Old Navy three-pack bodysuits have been the top contenders at our home. What about you? What are your clothes essentials?
