Because the oldest cousin is 14, I think this is the last Christmas I can do matching dresses for all three cousins. Would like to keep it under $50 per dress. Where would you look? I have tried:
Hanna Andersson Gymboree Children's Place J Crew Target Garnet Hill Lands End Gap Old Navy Zara American Apparel Justice Mini Boden Janie and Jack Found some options at Macy's and Lord & Taylor but nothing I love. I have the 8-year-old and we have hand-me-downs from the older ones, so I don't do a lot of shopping. Is there anything obvious that I missing? Thanks! |

| The Wooden Soldier but the 14 y.o. will have a different cut. So they'll match, but not the way you are currently thinking. But I think this way is better given her age |

Do matching PJ vs dress
14 year old would likely not be caught dead matching little ones outside, but inside at night in PJs is fine. And CDW kids has those. |

My mom used to buy me and my 4 younger sisters matching holiday dresses. We're still not over it. 
Seriously, though, I tell you this as someone who's been there: no 14 year old wants to dress like an 8 year old. |

| Ugh, no. You should have stopped at 12, and even that was pushing it. |

Not even brides maids are forced to do it anymore. I like the pj's idea or maybe longish t shirts with a common design. |

The fact that this is a horrible idea that no one in their right mind would dream of doing. |
