[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s not about money.

Try keeping a 2.5 year old in perfect expensive clothing when they are on the playground, in dirt, mud, painting, getting sweaty, eating.  I’d rather them just be a kid and play them worry about keeping a shirt starched.  And hair...everyday is a battle to brush or get it nice.

I buy target play clothes because it’s cheap, convenient, looks ok,  and if it gets destroyed, grown out of, lost in a bottomless cubby it doesn’t matter.

Just let the kids play.  When they are older want want to wear nicer stuff, we will get nicer stuff and they will need to be more careful.[/quote]

Yeah, I don’t buy it.  I have two very active kids who start out the day being clean, brushed and put together and encourage them to get as dirty and sweaty as they want.  But they start the morning looking like someone loves them.

BTW, more expensive clothing like Hanna Andersen lasts longer and releases stains better than cheap clothes which saves money in the long run.  And even filthy, they look better. [/quote]

I am really starting to dislike these HA, Boden and Tea Collection posters. Trust me, I've waited for sales and coupons and what not, its a lot of energy to spend on freaking *kids clothes* and they are expensive as hell if you buy them randomly. And I have 2 girls, and they do look worn out after so many washes. Only a few of them can be really handed down.[/quote]

OP here and really? My second son is wearing HA shorts and a t shirt today. I got both second hand (off FB) when my FIRST son was born. So the outfit is 5 years old and basically 3rd hand. The colors are bright, no stretching or pills. The PJs are all the same.[/quote]

Sorry not been my experience. Many of their HA t-shirts and leggings got a weird oil kinda stain on them. Many of their Tea Collection dresses faded after a couple of washes. [/quote]
