Baby Christmas Outfit Guide: What to Wear this Holiday Season!
Posted by Feltman Brothers on 9th Jul 2023
Your baby’s first Christmas is a major event. Even if Christmas doesn’t hold a special place in your heart, the holidays are always a great time to celebrate with your little ones. And what better way to make the occasion even more special than a completely unique outfit for your baby?
While it’s often easy to pick the right colors for Christmas clothes (you can’t go wrong with red, green, or white), it’s not always easy to find truly beautiful baby clothes that match the importance of the holiday. This is why so many parents struggle to dress their little ones properly on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and throughout the holiday season. It can feel like there just aren’t that many good options on the market!
Fortunately, the Feltman Brothers can make it much easier for you. Our Christmas collection features beautiful designs that are perfect for a myriad of Christmas events, from casual family get-togethers to more formal parties with the larger community. But if you’ve never shopped for a Christmas newborn outfit or even a holiday garment for your toddler, you probably have a few questions.
For example, what kind of outfits work well for small children during the holidays? What are some good accessories that will help tie your child’s entire outfit together? Finally, where can you get the best quality Christmas clothes for your little ones?
In today’s guide, we will answer all of these questions and more, but first, let’s look at a few tips for choosing your baby’s first Christmas outfit:
Choosing Your Baby's First Christmas Outfit
When shopping for Christmas baby outfits, you’re probably going to feel overwhelmed by the pressures of the day. The holiday season can already be pretty stressful as it is. Between planning family events, doing Christmas shopping, and preparing special meals, you may feel completely drained and unable to plan your baby’s outfits.
But it’s important to remember that your baby will only experience their first Christmas once! While you can always make subsequent Christmases special, your baby’s very first Christmas should always be a wonderful memory to share with friends and family. So, here are a few tips to help make your holiday season just a little easier and, hopefully, a lot less stressful:
- Focus On Comfort - It may seem like aesthetics should be your primary concern during the holidays (especially when everyone is taking pictures), but the comfort of your baby is super important. Why? Because nobody (least of all you) wants to carry around a miserable baby during a holiday party! So, look for outfits that are breathable and made with soft, delicate fabrics.
- Make Things Festive - Nothing defines Christmas outfits more than festive colors and designs. As previously mentioned, you can’t go wrong with a touch of red, green, and white, but you should also consider designs that feature Christmas-themed images like holly, Christmas trees, nutcrackers, and more!
- Find the Right Size - Naturally, you want your baby’s first Christmas outfit to actually fit! This can be a little tough to do ahead of time when you’re baby is growing fast, which is why it is important to figure out the best size for your child about one month in advance and, if necessary, order a slightly larger size. One good thing to keep in mind is that many types of baby clothes are specifically designed to be loose-fitting so that your baby doesn’t outgrow them before the big day!
- Try Versatile Garments - Though you want to pick a special garment for your baby’s first Christmas, you also want to get your money’s worth! Consider purchasing an outfit that would look great during a Christmas party or for a casual day at the park. This way, you can get multiple uses out of it before your baby gets too big! As an added bonus, many of the items available at Feltman Brothers are vintage-style, heirloom outfits that can be passed down through the generations. So, even if your baby outgrows their clothes quickly, you should still keep them in the family for future children and grandchildren to enjoy!
- Remember Accessibility - Accessibility is key when you’re shopping for any kind of baby garments that will be worn on special occasions. The last thing you want on Christmas day is a screaming baby with a full diaper! If you buy clothes that are easy to unfasten or take off as needed, you’ll have a much easier time changing diapers and generally keeping your baby clean and happy!
- Consider Multiple Layers - Do you live somewhere cold? Are you planning to attend an outdoor event, like a Christmas tree lighting? If so, you may want to consider multiple layers so that your baby can be warm and cozy throughout the festivities. And even if you’re not in a particularly cold area or you plan on staying indoors this Christmas, you should still consider giving your baby multiple layers to work with. This way, they are far less likely to feel uncomfortable due to the temperature!
- Personalize the Outfit - When you’re shopping for a 3-month-old, you may be wondering how much personalization you can actually do. But the fact is that every child has their likes and dislikes, as well as personality traits that make them completely unique, regardless of their age! So, try to pick an outfit that really reflects your child’s inner and outer beauty!
