How much did you/do spend on Fall clothes for DC?

DD is 17 months and so far I've spent $94 in Gap, $65 in Kohls and $75 in Children's Place and I have another $95 in my shopping cart at Old Navy that I'm just waiting to buy!

Items include:
4 pairs of jeans
3 outfit sets (pants/tops)
6 long sleeve tops
2 sweaters
3 cargo/twill pants
1 winter jacket
1 fleece hooded jacket
4 pairs of sweat pants

I haven't even gotten to shoes yet! Is this the sign of a problem?

So far I spent about $100 but Kaydyn got stuff from her birthday in January that she is just growing into. I'm hoping the stuff I got will last until Christmas.

Eta: I have to buy her new shoes so I'll prob be going to Stride Rite and buying her a couple of pairs.

I have never kept track, I am not a HUGE shopper, I buy them what they need.

Re: How much did you/do spend on Fall clothes for DC?

I spent about $200 at the outlets and then another $100 at Old Navy last week. But he's pretty much done. I may grab a few little things here and there, plus his bday is in October and then the holidays in december.

Re: How much did you/do spend on Fall clothes for DC?

Probably $0, I love having nieces who are older than DD! I will have to buy some shoes/socks, but I am set on clothes.

Re: How much did you/do spend on Fall clothes for DC?

Yikes- I've been out of hand.

Nordstroms for shoes- $110, 2 pair

Gap- I've made about 3 trips so far totaling about $400 but there's a LOT of clothing in there- her winter coat, PJs, etc.

This isn't just fall either- it's fall & winter together.

I'm probably going to stop now and just fill in where needed.

Re: How much did you/do spend on Fall clothes for DC?

So far nothing. Things are tight right now and I swear its like I have a clothing angel! This summer he still fit in last summers stuff, plus the stuff I bought for St. Maarten. So far he still fits in all of his sweats, and some of his jeans, and his long sleeve shirts. At this point I may be good until I get my birthday money in November from my parents and Christmas money to buy his winter clothes. I go to consignment shops too, they have all the name brands and usually are brand new!

Re: How much did you/do spend on Fall clothes for DC?

Waaaayyyy too much!

For Marron I've spent about $300 at Hannah Anderson, $200 at TCP $100 at Old Navy and probably about $300 at Gymboree. There are also a few things I want from Mini Boden. This doesn't include what I got at the end of the season last year. I am pretty much done, except for holiday outfits, coats, boots & gloves as long as I can stay out of the stores and off the internet!

As long as I can find Marron's old clothes, I'm set for Erin!

p/s - this is for all of fall and winter.

I never keep track. Last year, I bought 4 bags of fall/winterl clothes for my DS from Denny's 90% crazy sale, which are for this year.

For DD I have been picking up items here and there too from Denny's, Century or Nordstram Rack and got great deals.

People think I spend waaaay more than I do for the amount and style of clothes my children have.

Re: How much did you/do spend on Fall clothes for DC?

I don't keep track. I am constantly picking up and adding to it so I don't feel it as much Girls are so fun to shop for.....we need to go crazy!

Re: How much did you/do spend on Fall clothes for DC?

I dont keep track. I am also bad at looking at what they have from the previous season that still fits.

For boys I make sure he has new shoes and the basics (pants in every color and style) and shirts to match

Holiday and special occasion clothes are a separate shopping adventure

Re: How much did you/do spend on Fall clothes for DC?

So far only about $40 at Carter's outlet (and that includes his halloween costume). I got a ton of hand me downs so I think I may just go to Carter's outlet a couple of more times. I'm sure I;ll only spend about $100 for fall/winter clothes. But DS is only 8 months so he doesn't really need a ton of stuff and I have no problem doing laundry a couple of times per week.

Re: How much did you/do spend on Fall clothes for DC?

I try not to go crazy because his b-day is the day after Christmas so right around that time he gets an INSANE amount of new stuff.

I did buy some new things since he was going back to school.

He is 3 1/2 and he can fit in 3T or 4T at this point so he can still use alot of his things from last year. (winter boots still fit.. so do his fall/winter jackets)

With that said..

I spent maybe $30 at Old Navy (some long sleeve tees and army cargo pants)

$50 at Marshalls. (thick hoodie/jacket type thing, 1 pair of new jeans, some new tees)

I also bought a bunch of things on some serious sale from last season. (2 new pairs of shoes.. new sweatshirts.. ect.) I also have things I saved b/c people bought them too big last year.


So alltogether I'd say about $100-$150

Re: How much did you/do spend on Fall clothes for DC?

wow... i haven't bought a darn thing yet... she has been so spoiled and has clothes for the next year. money is tight so i am grateful and don't plan on buying anything unless she needs it. it's fun to look, but i have been able to restrain myself!

Re: How much did you/do spend on Fall clothes for DC?

First time I had to buy clothes for DS. Spent $50 at Carters Outlet and $25 GC at BRU. Spent a $10 GC at Kohls. $30 at Target. That's about it. So so far out of pocket $80. Things are pretty tight, but I am good with sells and was able to score some free brand new outfits. I think we should be set for the fall and most of the winter.
