Season - you need to buy clothes relevant to the current and upcoming seasons, but also try to keep your purchases season-neutral as much as possible. For young babies and toddlers' daily summer wear, onesies made of lightweight cotton are a great alternative to pants and shirts. For winter wear, bundling babies in layers is a good way to combat the difference between heated buildings and the outside. Warm socks, mittens, and hats are also essential for keeping in most of the baby's body heat.

This means that you can usually get you can usually get several babies worth of use out of an outfit and if you really do want your baby to look like a fashion model mini-me, this is probably the most sensible and cost-effective way to do it.

But however much money you want to spend on your little one - or however cute you want him/her to look - remember that when it comes to buying baby clothes, "cute" is no substitute for safe and comfortable.
