For the past three years, I’ve been buying this summer dress from H&M for Olive. They always come in a ton of different prints (~20 this year), they’re available in sizes 1 1/2-10, they’re perfect for daycare/preschool, and best of all they’re only $5! You can wear them a little long, so they can even last two summers.

We have the adorable watermelon print dress which also has a matching headband. If you can’t find your size online, the stores usually carry a big selection, and sometimes they offer a buy 2 get 1 free sale.
Do you have any go-to affordable kids’ clothes that are available year after year?

I love H&M dresses! Almost bought the strawberry one for Ruby but she’s such a hellion right now that dresses slow her down too much.

I buy these dresses for L every year. They are such great value and perfect for daycare for the kid who wants a dress every single day.

We have these from last year and the watermelon and tiger ones already this year. Such great simple dresses! Plus, they take up little-to-no-room in the diaper bag, I always keep them as our back-up outfit!

Love this! Just bought 3 from H&m yesterday and they’re so cheap but cute – perfect for daycare and not feeling guilty about messes.

My favorite but they shrink so much! Oh well, still worth $5!

How would you say they run? My LO is 3.5 and typically wears a 4T. I’d love to buy her a few.
