It was a sad day for me when my girl outgrew the toddler section at Target. I’m serious. I think I cried. The toddler clothing section at Target is ridiculously cute (moms, you already know this) and the prices can’t be beat. Across the aisle in the “big girls” department it’s kind of hit or miss. Some stuff is fabulous, and other items seem a little too old looking for my 7 year old to be wearing. It’s a tough age to shop for – I think. On one hand she’s beginning to have an opinion about what she wants to wear, and I think it’s great for her to want to express herself in that way. However, I don’t want her growing up too soon and dressing older than she is. I find that a lot of companies sell what looks like women’s clothing in little girl’s sizes which makes it kind of hard to find cute, well made clothing that looks like it was made for a 7 year old girl to wear (not a 22 year old) that is also affordable.
When my mother in law introduced me to the Lands’ End kids department it was basically like love at first sight. The clothing is fun and sweet, well made and the pricing is great!
The clothes are livable and always wash really well. This particular outfit has been in rotation since this past fall (I think she wore this on the first day of school) and still looks practically brand new.
I love little details like a ruffled placket that says “this is sweet and girly”.
Are you a Lands’ End shopper? Am I the only one that didn’t realize how great their kids department was? I love that they ship for free everyday on orders over $50!
This chambray shirt is currently on sale with limited sizing. Unfortunately the pants are no longer available. You can order a pair of monogrammed converse here. I’m pretty sure that flower hair clip came from the Michael’s dollar section. (They always have the best little goodies there!)
And here are a few of my current favorites for spring and summer. I’m in LOVE with the flamingo skirt and don’t even get me started on the pom pom scarf!!! Serious cuteness overload!
scarf (it’s only $7.99!) | zebra printed pants | graphic t | flamingo skirt (on sale!) | striped dress | chambray shorts | yellow leopard card | gladiator sandals (they come in lots of other colors)
Oh and PS – These sweet riding boots (be still my equestrian loving heart) are on sale; sizing is limited, but if you can guestimate your little’s shoe size for fall it’s a great price to snag them!
This wasn’t a sponsored post. I just wanted to spread the word for my momma friends in case you were like me and had no idea how great Lands’ End was for kids. I like celebrating companies that keep our little girls little for as long as possible!

Thanks so much for the idea! I usually shop Target for my little girl's clothes too. I'll have to check out Lands End.
