Cute Little Girl Clothes Are Easy To Find

By Christi Larsen


It seems to be an eternal truth that cute little girl clothes are always available. Tiny tykes look adorable in the fashions of every age. Traditional styles never go out of fashion, while designers are always coming up with new ideas to keep today's kids on the cutting edge. Clothing is also a great gift idea, whether for family members or the children of friends.

In the old days, both little boys and little girls wore dresses. Today, it is more usual to see the boys in mini-man clothes with additional juvenile decorative touches. But dresses are still very much in fashion for the girls. Pants, of course, have become acceptable for females to wear to almost any occasion.

If your taste is traditional, check out upscale boutiques that may carry hand-smocked dresses made in pastel fabrics with subdued checks and tiny prints. The quality of workmanship makes such clothing worth the high price tag. The internet and designer catalogs are also sources for hand-made frocks. It is true, as well, that many thrift stores get brand name clothes that shoppers might not be able to find in local retail outlets.

Pinafores, puffed sleeves, long bouffant skirts, and sun-suits are other styles that children wore in earlier times. These designs have kept their appeal and can still be found if you search. You may remember the all-cotton, seersucker one-piece suit you wore in the sandbox and want one for your daughter or grand-daughter. Believe it or not, you can still get it today.

Fashions have changed, and modern trends have brought forth many new fabrics as well. Tiny checks and prints have made way for polka-dots and paisley prints, and calicoes have been replaced by over-all patterns of favorite movie or cartoon characters. Man-made materials enable clothes to be permanent-press, completely machine washable and dry-able, and shrink-resistant. Colors are brighter and patterns mix and match almost without restriction.

Busy families have little time for hand-washing and ironing, so easy-care and wrinkle-resistant garments make everyone's life easier. The fact that old rules of color matching and 'no checks with stripes' have almost disappeared means that busy moms don't have to supervise their kids daily selections as closely as before. Anyway, the new rules are more fun!

Another nice thing about modern fabrics is that they can be less bulky, which is great for little ones who dislike being bundled so that they cannot move freely. Fleece is warm without the scratchiness of some wools, and warmth does not have to be sacrificed. Stretch fabrics have made clothes more comfortable than ever.

Cute little girl clothes can be found in local stores, in catalogs for every price range, in up-scale and budget department stores, in thrift and consignment shops, and online. No one should have to miss the fun of dressing a tiny tot in her favorite colors or a style sure to please a doting grandma or her little friends. Fancy dress or sporty togs are easy to find, fun to buy or make, and fun to wear.
