Twinning Outfits With the Kids: Fashion Tips From the Experts

This post may contain affiliate links. Read full disclosure.

by RAKI WRIGHT

Wearing the same outfit as your child is very cute. It’s also a very effective way of bonding with your child, especially if you are wearing an outfit that they have chosen for you to wear.

If you want to wear matching clothes, then you and your child need to find some clothes that you both like. Your child won’t like being forced to wear an outfit that they don’t like any more than you would.

Here is a quick guide, offering some expert tips for twinning with your kids this summer:

Mommy and Me

If you want to wear the same outfit as your child, then mommy and me outfits are a great choice. As can be seen from sweethoney clothing mommy & me outfits, these outfits offer items in both child and adult sizes.

The hardest part about buying clothes that match your child’s clothes is sizing. Mommy and me outfits are so great because they eliminate the stress of having to worry about finding clothes that fit both of you because they come in a broad range of sizes.

It is also possible to purchase daddy and me outfits.

Experimenting

If matching with your child is something that you are interested in, then it’s a good idea to experiment with it when they are young. As your child gets older, they are more likely to refuse to wear matching outfits with you.

If they are already used to it, however, then it won’t bother them. You should never force your child to wear the same outfit as you if it is something that they don’t want to do.

Forcing one’s child to wear matching outfits can make them very uncomfortable, especially if they are going into their teens.

Matching Colors

If you aren’t interested in mommy and me (and daddy and me) outfits, then finding matching clothing items might be a little more difficult. If this is the case, then work with what you have.

At the very least, you should ensure that your outfits match in terms of coloration. If you are shopping for matching clothing items, then it is also a good idea to look for basic items that you can both wear, like plain T-shirts and stonewashed jeans.

No matter what brands you buy these items from, they will look the same.

Patterns

Another alternative to buying identical outfits is to buy outfits that have similar patterns. Matching patterns can be very cute and are a great option if your child isn’t sold on wearing the exact same outfit as you.

It is also very easy to buy clothing items with patterns that match, as long as you stick to common and well-known patterns and styles. Stripes, camo, and polka dots are all good options.

You should try to make sure that the coloring of the clothing items is the same also so that they are a closer match to each other.

Twinning with your child is a great way to bond (and makes for great photographs). The younger you condition your child to wear the same outfits as you, the more comfortable they will be with it as they get older.

If you can’t find items that match identically, then match colors.
