do you put shorts on under dresses?  I never have, but she is not very lady like when she sits and I think we need to start.  What do you do?

If she's going to be playing outside or if the dress is a little short, yes. ?If not, nope.

I found a pair of white bloomers at Macy's after searching the entire universe!

I have a couple pairs of bloomers that came with some other dresses and I use those for almost all her dresses.  I don't mind so much while she's playing but I think of stroller rides or cart rides don't work with a dress!

Most of her skirts have the shorts built in. For dresses, I don't put anything under them. I do remind her to sit like a lady every now and then.

I put her in white underwear or closely match it with the dress, I guess like a bloomer.  If I could find a nice pair of bloomers I would use that...maybe I should make some...hmmm.

She wears monogrammed bloomers from etsy.com

Absolutely.... I think it looks terrible for their panties to be hanging out when they're wearing dresses.   I bought her a plain white pair of bloomers from a local boutique, she has capri leggings from Children's Place, and there is an awesome product called Monkey Bar Buddies that she has as well.  They are little snug-fitting spandex shorts that work perfectly under garments that don't need any bulk underneath them... they come in all different colors (I just got plain white b/c they're $21 a pair.  But totally worth it, IMO.

The website is www.monkeybarbuddies.com

I always put little shorts or leggings under her dresses (which is what she wears 90% of the time).

I used to put bloomers from other dresses, but she's outgrown all of those. We've got tons of leggings, little cotton shorts (though I haven't found a good place to buy a bunch of them in all different colors) and the shorts that come with PJ sets.

I looked up that Monkeybar buddy site.  I just bought several pairs of shorts that are very similar to those, form fitting and not bulky just like those.  We found a lot of different colors at Target for $3.99.

Only if we're going to the playground where she'll be sliding, sitting in the dirt or sand, etc.
