Need baby boy fashion advice :)

Alison422 · April 2011

So, I'm still getting used to dressing a boy and I need advice on what Taylor should wear for upcoming pictures/Easter. The dress I have picked out for Caroline is super girly and there is nothing boyish about it, so I am having a hard time figuring out what to have Taylor wear to compliment it. He has a pair of navy and white seersucker shorts that I would like for him to wear, but I don't know what to do for the top. I was thinkig either a shirt in another complimentary spring color or do a muted color sweater vest. I don't know.... Help!

Here is a pic of Caroline's dress...

hmmmm. cooper is wearing khaki shorts and a peach polo. jax is wearing khaki's and a light green checked shirt.

my first thought with that dress is khaki's and a baby blue shirt. could you do a light blue with those seersuckers? or if it's mostly navy, what about white polo?

That is so funny you said that about the green check shirt b/c I thought about scrapping the seersucker shorts and getting a green checked shirt I saw at Crazy 8 and putting it with khakis. He does have a white Polo he could wear, but I didn't know if I should do white bc I didn't want him to be washed out. Thank you for the ideas!

Bailey is wearing green/blue plaid shorts with green polo and white sweater vest. Bryce has the same green/blue plain but in overalls and a green polo. You could do the seersucker shorts with a white polo then maybe get a blue sweater vest to go over it.

How about an outfit like this?

I actually think I might get this for Colin.

Cute dress!

There are a lot of colors that would compliment that. I definitely think khaki would go with it well, though. You could do khaki shorts and a peach colored polo or if you want to do a more traditional boy color do any shade of blue shirt. I think the navy/white seersucker shorts would work, too, though. I'd probably go with a blue shirt with or without a white vest. If you want to pull in the pink you could go with something like this:

At that age I did a John John with his monogram for Reid. For Grant his first Easter he had seersucker shorts with a matching seersucker coat and a white ss polo and sweater vest.

He actually has this exact outfit! But I wasn't sure if it would look good with her dress in a picture. You think this would look good together?

Yes I think it would b/c the navy and green will complement the pink. I think you will have nice color pop for photos. They will be very springy. If you wanted to you could get the sweater vest from C8 that is mainly navy with green and white in the diamonds to neutralize it a little bit but still have good color pop.
