| In addition to Target and Old Navy, we've had luck with J Crew Factory. |

Not at all. If she's buying in advance to make the kid feel welcome (which is a great idea!), then I suggest that the OP get her niece's input before making too much of an effort on clothing. |

What’s wrong with athletic clothes? Soon they will be wearing half shifts and short shorts, althetic shorts and t shirst or jerseys with hoodies are fine! |

| I have a 9yo rising 4th grader and and older daughter. They wear a lot of Old Navy, Target (more Art class or athletic than Cat & Jack but my 9yo still likes their leggings just fine), Zara, H&M and some Gap and Crew cuts. My 9yo is pretty into clothes and likes to put outfits together, but she’s happy enough with a bunch of relatively simple basics - plain colored shirts in various styles, sweaters/cardigans, leggings and jeans (she still likes dresses but a lot less than a couple of years ago). She’s moved away from graphic tees with cutesy sayings (a shirt with The Beatles on it is still “cool” though, a she’s a big fan), and likes more muted colors now overall. She’ll add “flair” with scarves, jewelry or hair things, and loves to use color. She’s deciding what her “best” colors are with the “help” of her older sister - they both have rather striking coloring and seem to have strong opinions about fashion without being obnoxious or difficult about it. |

I emphasize taking pride in how we present ourselves, and we talk about wearing appropriate clothes for the occasion. That doesn't equate expensive clothes. I don't think athletic clothes are appropriate for school or church or lots of other things. Fine for sports or hanging around the house. But that's me and how I was raised, and how I'm raising my child. I'm not spending my time judging yours. |

I am pp. I also wanted to say that Tie dye is very "in" right now. Old Navy and Target have some simple tie dye tshirts that aren't too loud- one color of tie dye in blue or pink with some shorts is pretty universal right now. |

| For our 8 yo we mostly buy from Target, Old Navy and Gap. Avoid Old Navy leggings though (they will look 1 year old after 3 washes). DD likes t-shirts, leggings and athletic wear. For more durable needs like jackets we do Lands End or Eddie Bauer. For something different I mix in H&M and Zara. |

What does she like to wear and what is wrong with it that it won't work this year? You could have her attend school and see what she likes by what other kids are wearing. |

| If you're willing to spend money and she is slim, I would recommend Primary.com - their clothes are very durable and solid and stripes, so they're pretty classic for staples. |

Primary has amazing sales and is less expensive than many of the places already listed in this post. |

Even on sale, it's more expensive than Target, but it is great quality and long lasting (I have been able to sell everything after my 2nd kid goes through it). |
