Styling your newborn


Suggested ad (Little Poppy Co.)

The hospital will provide your newborn with an outfit to head home in, but after that, you’re responsible for your little one’s fashion success. Here are a few tips for dressing your darling newborn.

Neutrals can be a serious positive

Even though there’s a decent chance that your baby will look (at least a little bit) like you, it’s pretty hard to dress a person you’ve never met. Until you know which colors pop with their eyes, it’s a great bet to stick with neutral tones.

Newborns often have flushed, reddish cheeks, which shades of green can balance out. Swaddling your little one in off-whites and pastel pinks can complement any eye or hair color, and lets your baby’s brand new personality take center stage.

Gentle and original organics

There’s a reason why people say “soft as a baby’s bottom.” It’s because infants have super delicate (and of course, soft) skin. Newborns are more sensitive to the irritants in chemicals, fragrances, and dyes in clothing than older children are.

Organic fabrics take the guessing out of figuring out what’s safe for your baby to wear. Many mainstream brands offer organic baby clothing, so you can stay on-trend with peter pan collars, teensy harem pants, and certified organic baby blankets without having to search too far.

365 days of Halloween

One of the best things about dressing babies is that they can wear just about anything and no one bats an eye. Dress your baby in a teensy tuxedo, organic-farm overalls, or precious pink ballerina flats.

You’re going to want to take advantage of the first few months, when your baby is sleeping so much that they don’t notice they’re dressed as the world’s cutest carrot or penguin! After a year or two, they might have a few things to say about your choices…

Saved by the bow

There’s a reason why people say “soft as a baby’s bottom.” It’s because infants have super delicate (and of course, soft) skin. Newborns are more sensitive to the irritants in chemicals, fragrances, and dyes in clothing than older children are.
