Regardless of what you celebrate, there is something magical about this time of year. It’s stressful for sure, but chilly weather, festive drinks, sparkly attire, and picking out gifts for your loved ones is also super exciting. If there are kids in your life, the holidays are that much more special…but it’s also important to gameplan everything from decor to activities to outfits. This year, I made an effort to pick out a few new items that would get my kids in the holiday spirit and keep the season feeling extra festive.

For A Trip Down The Street To See Holiday Lights
Some of my favorite baby and toddler outfits come from Baby Mori, a UK-based brand that boasts some of the softest onesies on the market (don’t just take my word for it, read about the brand in Vogue, The Bump, and more). Aside from great wardrobe staples, Baby Mori always has the best holiday releases, like this adorable knitted gingerbread sweater and matching pants ($64). They’re thick and cozy, making them ideal for anything that requires being outdoors. We’ll definitely wear them for walks around the neighborhood this holiday season!

For Family Photos That Feel Festive, Not Forced
One of my favorite brands for every season, Hill House Home’s holiday line does not disappoint. This year, I grabbed a Tiny Sienna Dress ($75) for each of my daughters and they are so cute. The signature fabric is lightweight cotton with a brushed finish to feel almost flannel-like, making it a bit cozier and more luxurious than the summer fabrics. Don’t forget to grab one for yourself too – The Ellie ($75) is a classic and The Lottie ($75) is perfect with tights.

For Counting “How Many Sleeps Until…”
Somewhat of a pajama connoisseur myself, I can confidently say that Lake pajamas are second to none. They’re made with the absolute softest 100% pima cotton and truly feel like butter on your skin. I wear mine to death and they still last a pretty long time. This year, I’m eyeing this adorable Nutcracker set ($48) for my girls and stocked up on a few sizes of my favorite Lavender striped set ($48) during the Black Friday sale. And for my pregnant mamas, do not miss these maternity sets, perfect for a growing belly (plus, easy access for breastfeeding).

For The Most Fabulous Partywear
If you want to be the best dressed guest at the party, look no further. Between this sweet velvet dress ($70), this kitschy-but-cool tee ($36), and this sparkly hair clip ($50), Boden has something for everyone. The clothing is really well made and has an almost vintage feel – the exact type of thing you’ll want to hand down to future generations. Shop the entire holiday collection here.

For The Perfect Stocking Stuffer
Another seasonal favorite, I’m loving this year’s Slumberkin holiday collection, which is great for teaching children the importance of community, giving, and embracing feelings. The Snowflake Dragonfly Mini ($18) and Snow Bunny Mini ($18) make great stocking stuffers, while the festive Shine Bright Unicorn Kin set ($54) would be a great gift under the tree. I especially love the winter holiday book, which reminds children that “when gift-giving starts to bring on stressful feelings, giving from the heart is the best place to start.” A sweet reminder for little ones!
