FASHION FRIDAY: THE MULTI-FACETED STYLINGS OF HENRY GATES

I have about as much fun dressing Henry as I did as a little kid with my Barbies.  While boy clothes certainly are not as varied in styling options as little girls (I can’t enter Janie & Jack without a serious case of wombfire from the miniature leopard coats and gingham skirts).  Even so, it’s a freaking blast to shop for him. And while Henry is 90% of the time solidly a preppy-nautical dresser, I do like to mix it up with a little camo now and again too. :)

A lot of you asked for a post about what he’s wearing, so here’s a round up of current favorites, MANY of which we already own, in the various styles of Henry….

These jeans (PREPPY #2) are my most favorite of ALL jeans for Henry, and not expensive. And how about those Liberty swim trunks with dinosaurs??? HELLLLLOOOOO.  Also a big fan of investing a good Vineyard Vines fleece (PREPPY #10) or sweatshirt once a year (pricey but so well made) as I throw it on top of almost everything when it gets chilly.  For footwear we adore the Sambas (HIPSTER #5)  and Converse (HIPSTER #6) and they add a smidge of a cool touch to any of these outfits.

PREPPY HENRY: 1. // 2. // 3. // 4. // 5. // 6. // 7. // 8. // 9. // 10. // 11.

HIPSTER HENRY:  1. // 2. // 3. // 4. // 5. // 6. // 7. // 8. // 9.

Stripes and stripes and MORE STRIPES! :)  Henry wears these Crocs loafer rubber shoes a lot in the summer (NAUTICAL # 7) and while I try my darndest to avoid buying heinous Paw Patrol or other cartoon shirts, he IS a kid with fierce passions for trucks and animals, so I love this striped excavator shirt (PLAY # and cute safari tee (PLAY #9). Everyone wins. Also we are OBSESSED with Plae shoes- he has these (PLAY #3) and they are amazing!!!

NAUTICAL HENRY:  1. // 2. // 3. // 4. // 5. // 6. // 7. // 8. // 9. // 10.

PLAYGROUND HENRY: 1. // 2. // 3. // 4. // 5. // 6. // 7. // 8. // 9.

Have a great holiday weekend guys, I’ll post Monday but then taking the rest of the week off from blogging until Friday!
