Childrens Fashion Accessories

Video Transcript

"Hi, welcome to Expert Village. I'm Gretchen Soares and today we are going to be discussing how to shop for children's clothing. In this clip we're going to talk about accessorizing our wardrobe and adding pieces for our children. A very important thing to add is hats. In sunny weather, you need a nice brimmed hat. It should be medium weight cotton with a nice sun brim on it to keep the sun off their heads and faces as much as possible. And for cool weather, a nice heavy knitted cap pulled down over those ears and keep their heads warm and the tips of their ears warm. The same for a little girl, a nice medium weight cotton brimmed hat for sunny weather and a heavier knitted hat for the cooler weather. Another good piece to add would be sunglasses. Some people think these are a little tedious and hard to keep on. They're really great for protecting their eyes when you are outside. If you get a pair of sunglasses, especially for infants and toddlers, I like the bendable, flexible kind. They can't break them as easily. These do just about everything. They bend and twist and do all these fun things. And they're cute. These are actually the good kind with the UV protection on them especially when outside playing. Another important thing to remember with little girls, especially if you've picked any dresses is to pick a couple pairs of tights. I like some of the heavier type knit types for winter time and some of the lighter weight types for spring and summer times. All children's tights tend to be washable. You just want to double check that on the packaging. The cotton-poly types are just going to throw in and launder with your clothing."
