I have a new favorite shopping site called Thred-Up. It's a company that offers "like-new" clothing from popular name brands we all love! I discovered this site when Noah was around 7 months and it has been heaven-sent! The reason I say this is because....every mom out there knows how pricey kids clothing can be. Especially when they grow out of it SO QUICKLY! & you have to buy again.
Thred-Up works for us because we can buy gently used clothing that no longer fit other children or were "never even worn" and buy them at a fraction of the cost! For example like the Toddler Polo by Ralph Lauren gray sweater highlighted below.... retails new for around $55, but at Thred-Up you'll be able to purchase a gently used version for only $13.99. Insanity no?
Anyway, I can say from firsthand experience that I am HAPPY with the quality of the items I ordered for my son. Everything looked pretty new, no complaints! For every item you are looking at, Thred-Up offers a description, measurements, material it's made from, along with the condition it is in. They also offer free returns for store credit + they're very generous and love offering their customers incentives to come back with discount codes! If you're a mom & you're wondering what to do with the clothing you already bought your little one that doesn't fit, Thred-up actually allows you to sell your (gently used) clothing on their site. Not just kids clothing, but adults too!
Here's pretty much how it works:
You order a free Clean Out Kit. pack it full of styles you love & return it to Thred-Up for free. Keep in mind the clothing you send should be in excellent condition. No stains, holes, piling, or signs of wear will be accepted. Styles you send should be on-Trend and in season. You'll find a variety of brands like J-Crew, DVF, Mini Boden , Theory, Ralph Lauren & more for women, men & children! For the entire list of brands they carry go here.
I love this company! Thred-up is ideal for moms who are looking for nice, affordable baby clothes! So moms, take notes. Watch the video above & see for yourself how cool this is.

I love love love Gymboree! I dont mind spending the extra bucks on cute clothes because I save and reuse them for future kids. They also have a high resale on e-Bay and Craigslist. I cant stand Walmart or Target brands that shrink and fade after one wash, or have buttons that fall off. One of my favorite hobbies is photography, mainly of my family. So I like having that extra touch for spur of the moment shots.
