I absolutely missed the mark in choosing what I’d dress our baby in, so today I’m sharing with you what I’d change about this section of our registry. (Don’t worry – I’m making fun of myself, too. I must have the kindest readers for not virtually rolling their eyes at some of these choices a year ago…)

Sure, we pass a lot of things down to our kids – our personality traits, quirky preferences and even bad habits (I’m halfway convinced Bee will suck her thumb until she’s in sixth grade, just like her mother!). Yet here’s a refreshing thought: why not pass along our clothing, as well? After all, siblings share hand-me-downs – why shouldn’t the parents join the party, too?

Ever wonder what a seamstress from the 1700s and a modern tailor would dream up were they to collaborate on a little girl’s clothing collection today? The answer is London-based Hucklebones. Named after the designer’s childhood Shetland pony, Hucklebones marries timeless quality fabrics from European mills with exclusive in-house specialty prints to produce heirloom pieces every little girl dreams of twirling about in…

I just discovered Joule Baby yesterday and my mind is already dreaming of the day Bee can romp around in a teal horse-patterned snowsuit. How fantastic is this printed collection? Cute overload.

If I could choose one collection to dress Bee in all winter long, it would be this one. (OK, and maybe Bobo Choses. Always and forever.) Perfectly mixed with patterns galore, I’m swooning big time. Favorite piece? Fox tee for President!

Melton has the cutest selection of accessories this season, yes? I mean, gosh. Those polka dot socks are just begging to be lost in the dryer forever.

Oh man; I love love love when readers send in links to awesome places I haven’t yet seen. Hat tip to Megan for introducing me to Petit Pan, which is basically a shop for everything your littles need after 6pm: bedding, bath time robes, kimonos, booties and sleep sacks. How great are these patterns? (I’m eyeing those turquoise booties for Bee!)

p.s. Speaking of sleep sacks, I just discovered them! We swaddled Bee in the Miracle Blanket (which I couldn’t love more), but she started breaking free like a bat on a mission once she turned 3 months old. We picked up this sleep sack a few nights ago and she’s back to sleeping 11 hours straight! I’m going to buy her a pony.

It’s far from summer in these parts, but I’m already daydreaming of warm weather frocks for next spring/summer. How adorable is Seed Heritage’s latest collection?  Although let’s be honest, until Bee is potty-trained, I’m keeping her in fuss-free onesies. Lazy moms unite!
