Fresh Fall fashion on a budget for toddler girls and boys

Hey it’s Tiffany stopping by. Today I wanted to make sure you knew about my current favorite little kid clothing line. Have you stopped by JCPenney lately? And if so, have you made your way over to the Joe Fresh section?  If not, you need to go. Seriously.

Maybe I’m overly excited because I live in a town that’s less than chic (but don’t most of us?). Or maybe it’s because I’ve slowly but surely transferred my shopping addiction over to the little people section. Side note: It’s much easier to justify and I don’t have to try stuff on. I call that a win/win. But I think I’m MOST excited because I love options. Especially affordable ones. Joe Fresh is modern, affordable, and stylish. Styles are available from size 3 month to size 14. No this isn’t a sponsored post. It just sounds like one.

Typically if I’m in need of something for the girls, I shop at Gap, Old Navy, or Target. I know there are other mall stores and a slew of online options but in the category of trendy, somewhat affordable, and a brick and mortar option close by (for returns), these three sources always win out. In terms of style, Joe Fresh is along the lines of Gap but with a little more edge. Not to worry; there are some “classic” pieces mixed in for sure but overall it’s super trendy stuff in the smallest sizes. There’s a word for that. It’s called cute.

As for price it’s not the least expensive on the market. But I’d definitely consider it “affordable.” I’m pretty sure there’s some marketing strategy that includes having dirt cheap options mixed in with less affordable options (Forever 21 anyone?). Of course it’s the pricey faux leather ruffle trimmed 4T coat you fall for. True story. Nevertheless, if you’re a bargain shopper, you can score some great deals. And if you’re patient, you can clean up when it goes on clearance. Which is just what I did a few weeks ago. The items included in this post range from $5.99 to $45.

As for value, the clothes are what you’d expect. For instance, the less expensive French terry jeggings are thin but for $8, they work. The more expensive denim is heavier and thicker. All the pants that I saw have the adjustable waist which I love. And the clothes look great, not cheap with loose threads and mismatched seams which you sometimes find at lower cost department stores. I think the value—the quality for the price—is definitely on par with comparable brands.

Now for my picks.  And a few more pictures of my little models rocking their joe fresh.
