Tips for Purchasing Baby Clothes

Purchasing baby clothes online is a great way to save money and time. You have the convenience of shopping from home and a variety of clothing options right at your finger tips.


To help make the process even easier, I have rounded up some tips on purchasing baby clothes


Tip #1:
Are they sharing the sex? If the clothes are a gift for a baby shower, be sure you consider the sex of the baby. You do not want to show up with an all pink outfit when the mother has learned she's expecting a boy. If you are unsure of the sex, go with a neutral color like green or yellow.

Tip #2:
Watch the weather. Be conscious of the season you are buying for and the size the baby will be at that time. You do not want to buy a winter jacket that they will grow out of before the cold temperatures set in. To help with sizes, ask the parents or seek the help of a Size Chart. If in question, always go one size up.

Tip #3:
Don't cut yourself short on time. If the clothes are a gift, be sure they can be shipped in time. Plan to shop at least 2 weeks before the party to choose the correct delivery method.

Tip #4:
Place function before fashion. I have to admit I am a victim of buying sneakers for my niece just because they were the "cutest thing I have ever seen". But, little did I know that my sister had to basically participate in a wrestling match every time she tried to tie the shoe laces. That is why she only buys Velcro shoes. I have learned my lesson. Be sure that the clothes you purchase have easy snaps or buttons so mommy and daddy appreciate the outfit instead of fighting with it.

Tip #5:
Basics go a long way! Moms can never get enough of baby undershirts, socks, bibs, and other basics. They are used multiple times a day, so even if the gift seems a little "blah" it will be loved just as much as the fancy outfit they only wear once.

Have fun shopping!

Lend New Mommies a helping hand with Springtime Hand-Me-Downs

After a long and brutal winter, the sun is shining once again. Time to get baby out in the sunshine, hit the swings and roll in the grass. Springtime also means another year of growth. If your infant has grown into a toddler so fast that his shorts are looking a little too short, it might be time to invest in some cute toddler clothes from KeepingInTheLoop.com. But before you invest in new baby clothes for spring from our wide selection, consider donating any items your child has outgrown to other mothers in need.

Even though it has largely disappeared from the nightly news, needs are still dire in Haiti. Mothers who lost everything are struggling to feed and clothe their young children. That’s why organizations like the Rockabye Foundation and Fashion Delivers make sure unused clothing gets where it needs to be.

If you would prefer to donate to the thousands of homeless folks and veterans who may need help clothing their children for the spring and summer, the Military Order of the Purple Heart will pick up any donations from your home. Just put them outside in a trash bag and they will get the items where they are needed most.

Once you have cleaned out your baby’s closet of all the outgrown items, check out Keeping In The Loop’s discount baby clothes and toddler clothes, bedding and baby gifts to get your rapidly growing toddler hitting the local park in style.

Spring 2010 Baby Gifts

The spring allows the ability to go outside and get some sunshine. Of course, you'll need your provisions with you to address any baby situation which may arise. Try out this Blossoms baby bag featuring a lovely floral print and a spacious inside.

Pamper Your Pet

Pets have become part of the family. Since the moment they are brought home, pets find their spot in the day to day routine of their owners. They bring happiness to a home and appreciate the care that they receive. A simple walk around the park, a game of fetch, or a good meal will get their tail wagging and a smile across their face.

Appreciation can be taken a step further by pampering pets with some of the latest and greatest pet supplies on the market, including…

Pet Beds- choose from orthopedic beds, couches and chaise lounges, pillows, and much more

Pet Houses- made from wood or plastic in the design of cabins, barns, mini mansions, and duplicates of their owners home

Pet Carriers- come in duffle bags, backpacks, strollers, bike carriers, car seats, kennels, crates, and even airline approved models

Pet Clothes- dress your pouch in anything from a custom tracksuit to a Santa Claus costume equipt with doggie boats or shoes

Pet Food Bowls/Dispensers- simple metal dog bowls are a thing of the past when you can buy decorative painted pieces, slate designs, auto dispensers, and bowls to sit at just about any height appropriate for your dog’s size
