Back to School With Carters + Giveaway

I have to start off this post by saying that Carter's contacted me about writing this post. I get contacted by quite a few companies to do sponsored posts and I take this very seriously.   I never write about products or lines we don't use and love in our house. I have been smitten with Carters since Sterling was a baby.  Their clothes are super cute and affordable, always key when your kids grow up so fast. 

Carters is working on a Back to School Campaign right now (all their current Fall stuff is 50% off!) and I have to say they have some really awesome items for older kids as well as the babies.     Sterling lives in his Carters pj's.  Like he must nap in a pair and then have a different pair to sleep in at night- he's crazy particular like that.

I found several cute everyday wear items for Sterling while shopping at Carters that looked to me like CrewCuts or Mini Boden but for a fraction of the cost. 
Case and Point this adorable Dinosaur Tee Shirt.  Tell me it does not look like the more expensive kids brands, but it only cost $7!  My little man loves it.



We also picked out this adorable outfit for Fall.  It is too darn hot here to sport it now, but it is going to look so cute once we get some cooler temps.  I love boys in fleece vests.  This vest is comparable to Patagonia and its only $18 right now!  It comes in navy as well, I was tempted to buy both!


Here are a few of my other favorites form the Carters site. From babies to older kids Carters has some really great clothing options.  We picked up the Skeleton pajamas,  Sterling was not leaving the store without them- and they glow in the dark! A real steal at $10!  Plus baby girl is getting the onsies and white pants, so sweet!

Ryann Toland said...

With a toddler boy and one on the way, Carters is definitely a go-to for our household! The clothes are a great price and I feel like they've recently migrated from the "Mommy loves me" to more classic styles such as the bear long sleeve tshirt and fleece vest.

Meagan said...

I love all the graphic tee shirts, especially the pirate parrot.

Megan said...

My first baby (a girl, like yours!) is due November 4. I already stocked up at the Carter's outlet once this summer, but I am in need of more pants/leggings. I love how they have lots of fun stuff but also some very classic and quality items as well.
