Trendy Tuesday | Dressing For Your Portrait Session

“What should we wear?” oh if only I had a nickle for every time I’ve heard that. It is a very important question and having to coordinate my own family of five has given me first hand expierence with how challenging it can be to find the perfect clothing for portraits. Enter ‘Trendy Tuesday’ … Each week we plan to feature a cool new site for clothing, accessories and, as time allows we’ll even put a few outfits together for you as I’ve done below. :)

This first set is from Kelly’s Kids which is a wonderful site to find coordinating looks for the entire family. This just happens to be their cabana crew line which I paired up with a yellow tee from Old Navy to give the set a little pop. Add a chunky yellow bracelet to give her outfit a little coordinating color and you’ve got a more traditional sibling look that is anything but boring and would be super easy to use as a base to gather ideas for what Mom and Dad will wear. The second set is from Gap Kids, I picked this brother/sister look to show that don’t have to be ‘matchy-matchy’ to still coordinate well with each other. The little bits of green in her dress match the green in his top, the khaki bermuda shorts tie in nicely with the cream cropped sweater. Even as the temperatures start to climb the lightweight cropped sweater will still be cool and comfy thanks to the open crochet design (also great for letting some of that super cute pink dress peek through up top). Maybe some deck shoes for him and strappy sandals for her? LOVE IT!

Ok, I’ve got just one more super cute find to share with you. If you have a baby girl and are planning on a beach session you have simply GOT to snap up one of these adorable little swimsuits from A Child’s Closet, they are just to die for! I can easily get lost on their website, so many adorable outfits, so little time!
