Sofia, who is almost three years old, is starting to get extremely picky about her clothes.
You know the drill.
Mom picks out outfit.
Kid says I don’t want to wear that one. (Even though yesterday it was a favorite!)
Mom picks out another outfit.
Kid says I don’t like <insert outfit description>.
Until Mom finally gives up and say wear whatever you want to wear, it is not worth the hassle.
That’s the stage we are at right now. One day the argument was over socks. I kid you not, socks. She was upset because they weren’t pink and didn’t have bows on them. Let me tell ya, I haven’t intentionally raised her to like pink bows. Until recently, she was happy as could be wearing one of her brother’s shirts with dinosaursor a Colts jersey. I blame the other girls at daycare.
Now that we are getting picky. Is she a teenager already?
Sofia Approved Outfits
This outfit is brand spanking new colorful outfit from The Children’s Place. Of course, we bought it on sale and used a coupon. I knew she would love it because it has pink in it. In fact, she wanted to wear it today with a shirt that completely clashed.
This is a funny one. This one is actually suppose to be a dress but it is too short on her so it is a long sweater-shirt! Of course, she loves it because it is pink!
Another piece from Children’s Place past…bright and fun skirt! Again, it is pink so Sofia approved!
Dressed in all pink…with a little belly showing…
Past Mom Approved Outfits
Again, don’t try to blame the pink obsession on me…though, these are some cute pink outfits from her baby days…and most of the favorites are from one of our favorite stores for quality, inexpensive clothes…(Guess which store?)
This one is one of my favorite pictures…outfit is all Children’s Place circa 2007. This was a favorite outfit too because her older sister had a matching outfit. That is one of the reasons I have loved shopping at Children Place because you can get similar outfits in all sizes. Great for matching siblings for family pictures, holidays, or just F-U-N.
Another fun outfit from Children’s Place. Love this one because the green brings out her eyes!
See I didn’t always dress her in pink. Some green got thrown in the mix too. Another Children’s Place shirt circa 2007.
More green. Okay, I get it. I like green. She likes pink.
Does your child have their own style?

How cute is taht
She is adorable in Pink ~! Remember everything matches their favorite color lol.
Very cute! I have 3 little girls, ages 8, 5 and almost 3 so I totally get the outfit thing! I just bought some outfits at Childrens Place for the girls last weekend. My 5 year old swore she looked like a rainbow. And I’m so glad she felt happy in her new outfit.
That story is soooo true. Precious. My daughter is 10 and it still hasn’t stopped. Although, recently, I found some old pics of me. I looked about 8-10 and u could NOT fit another fanny pack around my waste. LOL Had about 4 various colors. Sweet pants w/ legs pulled up. Shirt, jacket, and hat. Nothing at all remotely matched. It was too funny.
Adorable photos!!
Too cute!! My youngest is 10 and she has been quite picky about her clothes for a long time!! 🙂
I’m a fan on green over pink too! That said, I love the outfits the 3-6 yr old set come up with. Such fashion sense!
So cute! My daughter is starting to have an opinion regarding fashion as well, though she is generally willing to wear what I pick out during the week. It’s evenings and weekends when she starts adding layers and switching outfits and her style really shows through!
Oh too cute… I love the picture of her running… she just looks so happy!
what an adorable story – I vote you win, hands down!
She is just too cute, I am getting ready to have my second boy so hopefully I can reuse some clothes.
Your daughter is just adorable and I love her fashion sense!
Wow, I my little girl is only 12 months, but I can only imagine what it’ll be like over the next few years. Great story, you’ve got my vote!
Bri…how totally adorable… Kennedy loves the Children’s Place too.
Love the outfits! Children’s Place is one of my favorite places for kids clothes.
My mother would totally relate to this. I never wanted to wear what she picked out, it seemed simply on principle!
And who doesn’t love pink bow socks, really? 🙂
Awww, she’s a doll. I hope you win the contest!
I’m jealous. I have 2 boys and they couldn’t give a fig about fashion. Do you happen to know what Children’s Place has for boys?
She’s so cute! I love Children’s Place end of season sales. My family members with kids used to love it before I had bills, too, because I couldn’t just window shop I had to buy their kids stuff. Good quality stuff, though, that’s been passed down from kid to kid.
I love Children’s Place. They have so many cute clothes.
My SON is starting to be picky about what he wears too. I thought I wouldn’t have to deal with that since he’s a boy and all, but I guess I was wrong. Though I think it’s less about him being picky about what he’s wearing and more about it being HIS choice. If he thinks it’s his idea, he’ll wear it much more willingly than if I just pick something and try to get it on him!
