There is nothing sweeter to a momma than planning the outfit that her new child will be coming home in. Something about knowing that so soon this outfit will smell of newborn bliss and comfort that sweet soft skin makes my heart melt. Many people have questioned our joy in waiting until birth to find out the gender of our kids, and one of the most frequently asked questions is "How do you buy clothes for your child if you don't know their gender?" Well. Viola!
I am no fan of pinks and blue's.. I just never have been. Regardless of gender the clothes that draw my eye have always been a neutral palette so maybe I am just one of a lucky few! Grays, tans, cremes, whites and blacks are always where I find myself! Newborn shopping has never been difficult for someone like me. With Carter we chose a grey color palette for his coming home outfit and this time around I felt it was appropriate to change to a creme based palette and it couldn't have come together any sweeter.
We got the pants and knitted sweater from Baby Gap (my minor obsession..) and of course had to have a soft colored cloth diaper to go alongside. But I was more or less clueless what I should do about shoes. A November born babe needs a good pair of shoes to get from one place to another and I could've gone just about anywhere in regards to color. We were lucky to have ran into From Fro 2 Toe who worked with us to get the perfect pair. A neutral tan to complete our precious outfit!
Not only are the moccasins the perfect color but they are so wonderfully made, I have always had a difficult time finding moccasins that I feel are thick enough while being put together so diligently. You can tell without a doubt that Santina takes her time with these 100% leather moccs and truly puts her heart and soul into each and every piece.
You can never go wrong with a good neutral palette, a big gender surprise and a sweet pair of newborn moccasins!
