When you’re restocking your kids’ wardrobe, start by going through their closets and dresser. Please remove clothes that no longer fit and donate them to a charity or hand them to a younger sibling or a friend. Then, add some new basics to their wardrobe, like this linen sundress that goes with everything from jean jackets to sandals. Or try this t-shirt dress that’s a fun addition to sneakers and a cool hat.
They’re Comfortable
Kids, especially toddlers, wiggle and run A LOT. They need comfortable clothes like the ones at Janie and Jack so they can be their busy little selves. Sundresses fit that bill beautifully. The lightweight fabrics and loose, flowing silhouettes allow airflow to keep their skin cool, even in the hottest temperatures.
Trends like voluminous sleeves, smocking, eyelets, and bold prints add cute details to these carefree pieces. There are also styles for all body types, from short minis to wear with sandals at brunch to flattering maxi dresses explicitly made for plus-size curves. If your kids love picking out their outfits, they’ll be happy to see that sundress work with all their favorite accessories. For a relaxed day out, sneakers and a sunhat are appropriate. However, wearing wedges and statement jewelry is better to style this outfit if you’re attending a formal occasion.
They’re Versatile
A sundress is versatile and can be paired with various shoes, accessories, and a jacket to elevate or tone down the outfit. It’s suitable for any event, from a relaxed picnic in the park to a fancy dinner on the patio. Sundresses come in a variety of lengths and necklines. Some have a back zipper or button, while others can be slipped on and off without any closures. They may have sleeves, cap sleeves, ruffles, or be strapless. For a fun twist, try a dress with strategic cutouts or one in a bold shade to make your girl stand out.
They’re Affordable
Try adding sundresses to update your child’s wardrobe without shopping. These versatile items can be matched with various accessories for a formal or casual appearance. They’re affordable and come in multiple styles, from short to maxi. When your child outgrows a size, they can easily be recycled or donated. To make the most of a sundress, pair it with sneakers or boots and add a hoodie for a stylish look. For a trendy and cool-girl look, try a denim jacket.
They’re Fun to Wear
A sundress is a flirty, feminine, and classy look that’s fun to wear. They can be dressed up or down, depending on the occasion. Plus, they’re a breath of fresh air from the yoga pants, and hoodie look that so many kids gravitate toward during warm weather.
Whether it’s a crisp shirtdress with sleeves or a waist-cinching wrap dress for every day, or a long midi or maxi dress to wear to special events, there’s something about a sundress that makes girls feel instantly put together. It’s a look that always stays in style. Add a pair of cute sneakers to complete the look, or swap out the sandals for a cozy pair of boots as the weather cools down. For extra warmth, layer a soft, warm sweater over the dress.
They’re Easy to Clean
When updating your kid’s wardrobe, comfort and versatility are essential, but so is minimizing the number of clothes they wash. Sundresses are a great option because they are made from light, airy materials that can be machine passed.
A sundress is an informal or casual dress worn in warm weather, typically in a lightweight fabric, mostly cotton, and loose-fitting. They can be any length from short to maxi and may be sleeveless or collarless. Some are printed, while others are plain. They can have zippers, front buttons, back buttons, or a pullover style.
