One of the frustrations of being a parent is trying to outfit a growing being. Who knows what size the kidlet would be a month from now, never mind a season from now? But it happens every year. Stores force you to shop for summer clothes in March and winter clothes in August.
So what’s a parent to do when it’s still cold outside but the fruit of your loins have outgrown his fall and winter gear and there are no long-sleeved shirts and jeans to be found in the mall? Why, turn to the Internet of course. Find yourself a Canadian online retailer and click, click, click.
Top tips for getting through the season transition
Think layers: Most long-sleeved shirts and fleeces from the Fall/Winter 08 season are now on sale. These items are great for layering.
Buy one size up: Buy clothes a little larger so your little one gets more mileage out of the outfit. If you don’t mind rolling the sleeves a little, your son or daughter might get another season out of the shirt you just bought.
Think timeless: If you really want to get your money’s worth out of a piece of clothing, buy it because of the style AND quality.
Check second hand shops. You can find children’s clothes in excellent condition at your local second hand shops.
Shop online. If you can’t find it in the stores, surf online. Find yourself a Canadian online store and let your fingers do the shopping. New online shops are cropping up all the time, like TykeThreads, for example!
