Dressing Your Baby In The Latest Style

Debate abounds today about whether celebrities are going overboard in their baby clothes habits. Ok, maybe I should re-phrase that - the clothes they put their babies in. Celebrities wearing baby clothes is a whole different subject that cannot be covered in this article without an 18 certificate!

The majority of us will, once we know a baby is imminent, will pop down the local mother and baby shop and be grateful if we can get all the paraphernalia that we are told our babies cannot survive without. How they think babies survived years ago without a plastic gadget for everything is quite amazing!

There are those mothers on a totally different level who would prefer to go down to Romford market and purchase miles of nylon baby clothes, provided it had a designer label on it - regardless of its genuineness. These are the types of mothers who put a lot of store by being able to copy a celebrity baby and they think that this type of accessorising puts them in the same league as the celebs themselves.

Unfortunately, this is not so. A chav mother is easily identified next to a real star!

You see, a celebrity is not responsible for the actions of these mothers. They have the money to blow on baby clothes for whatever reason they want. If they want a 140 pounds pair of Gucci pram shoes, what difference does it make to anyone else? They will be as comfortable as a 2.99 pounds pair from Mothercare but who wouldn't buy their baby the cutest, most expensive designer wear they could afford?

An 80 pounds Prada baby gro may seem a little extreme to the average person but if you're on a footballers wages, why shouldn't you get one for your baby? What on earth is the point in having such an amazing wage packet as some of these celebrities if you don't spend it on your loved ones?

These sorts of expenses may seem like an extravagance to the average Joe but if you have the means, then why not? It doesn't mean that people have to keep up with those that can, it doesn't mean anything to your child whether it's dressed in high street cotton or Harrods cotton and it doesn't change a persons worth depending on what they wear.

The issue is, as with many things, to keep a balance of common sense and to live within your means. If you live on a relatively meagre income, dress accordingly, dress your baby in comfortable clothes the best you can afford and above all else, keep them smiling. A families love cannot be matched by expensive baby clothes, no matter how great they may look. Many people are still in favour of babies being dressed in simple, cotton, easy to wash baby clothes.

There are also just as many people that are in favour of buying what you can afford if it's the 355 pounds baby gro- if that's what you want to do and as long as it has no detrimental effect to the way the child grows to view themselves or others.

It really is down to the intelligence and self-esteem of the individual that feels they have to emanate the stars and not live within their own budget but at the end of the day, as long as the baby is warm, dry and well cared for, what you wrap it in doesn't really have any bearing.
