subject: What Kind Of Clothes For Baby Modeling [print this page] When you're expecting a baby or know someone who is, you'll want to check out your local retail baby boutique to see the kinds of cute and cool clothes that are out there for baby. There's a lot to select from, and you can spend hours just looking for the perfect things.
The good thing about a retail baby store is that there are salespeople there who've been doing this for a while and they can help you decide on what's necessary and what's just plain fun and steer you toward the right purchases for you.
Of course, you'll need everyday clothes, things like onesies and t shirts and little overalls and such. Babies need a lot of these things because of all the changes they go through, so you'll be happy to have a wide assortment to pull out of the drawer when needed. Think about the kind of look that you want your baby to have when you dress him or her. Maybe you want that wow factor where people stop you on the street to say how adorable your little one is.
Your baby's clothes can just be cute, or they can mimic designer lines so that they seem very trendy and perhaps match what you are wearing. Sometimes it's fun to have mom and daughter or dad and son go out wearing matching clothes. Whatever you pick, go for the look but also go for the comfort.
Babies need to wear loose clothing that is made of soft fabrics. You wouldn't want anything harsh or abrasive to touch the little one's soft skin. So don't just choose something because it looks good, but rub it on your own skin to see how that feels to you. Your baby will need it to be at least that soft.
Depending on the time of year when your baby is born, you'll have to select winter or summer clothing first. Try to imagine what age the infant will be when the type of clothes you're considering will be used so you don't buy an inappropriate size. In the winter you'll need a jacket for baby, or maybe a snowsuit or snow-sac depending on whether he or she is walking yet in the winter.
Make sure everything is cozy warm and loose enough that it doesn't bind baby. Tightness does not make something warmer. When you're shopping for new baby clothes, enjoy yourself. Let go and have fun, for this is a wonderful time in your life. Take some advice from salespeople and from experienced moms and dads who've been there.
Shop within your budget, but don't skimp. Everyone around will be even nicer to you and baby when you have him or her clean and well dressed. Then baby will be more cheerful and so will you. In the summer, pick airy things that float around the baby instead of sticking to the skin. Colors can be lighter, and you don't want any thickness of material.
