    where do you buy baby clothes from?

    Where do you get your baby clothes from?

    I'm looking for sources of baby clothes that are:

    - made of cotton and wool, not synthetics
    - comfortable
    - not always in just pink and blue!!!!!!!!!!
    - cheap (heh, am I dreaming?)

    The only thing I know of that is any good for this is the Purebaby outlet. But surely there are more places to go to buy nice clothes for DD without spending a fortune on things she'll grow out of so quickly.

    Any suggestions?

    SO you have some relatives that can knit? We have had so many things hand knitted for us that are just devine! DD has enough pairs of booties that she could wear a different pair every day for over a month!! no exaggeration

    I know some of the big baby chain stores like babies galore have some clothes that are not made from synthetics but could be quite expensive.

    I mainly buy clothes for DD from Target, Best&Less & Cotton On kids however I think these would have synthetics in them.

    I'm also really conscious of only buying natural fibres for our bubs. I've found that most of the basics (jumpsuits etc) at Target are 100% cotton, but you do need to check the labels carefully cos they do have a few synthetic things as well.

    i do most of my shopping for my boys at cotton on. they are not afraid to do tees and tops in bright colours for boys which is a nice change...myer and david jones have some good options, especially at sale time.

    target, kmart.. best and less are good.. they have baby baby range which has body suits w fold over cuffs for size 1 onwards as well as smaller ones. for some reason bonds dont make those w cuffs for older babies.

    i also got some really nice stuff on ebay. you can select new with and new without tags and get good brand new stuff on ebay.

    purebaby is good, but i would also keep an eye online for sales at other places, some websites have sale alerts and you can get some great stuff really cheap. Gaia organic baby clothing is a good one to look out for. especially this time of year lots of places will be having sales. thats what i do. other than that i pick up a few pieces here and there, big w is good for bonds stuff.
    geez i love babies clothes! arn't they just the cutest!
