Today I'm answering your requests for Easter ideas for baskets and outfits! I have to be honest - I LOVE coordinating outfits. Weird, yes. But so much fun!!! I went with a variety of palettes and tried to put lots of options for coordination for siblings and parents.

Boden always rocks with prints and this season did NOT disappoint. I'm loving the color combo and print mixing possibilities and all of these pieces will go long beyond Easter Sunday.
I based this combo off of the PRECIOUS gingham girls dress because I love how classic and fun it is. Your family will definitely be set apart in this unexpected color combo. Also, throw in a few touches of red and you're set for Memorial Day and July Fourth.
I feel like this is a classic Easter color palette and I'm loving the subtle tones of the blush and mint.
If you're not afraid of a pop of color then this ones for you :) The bright pink is bold and cheery and the print on the first dress is awesome.
I LOVE Matilda Jane, and with lots of prints going on for the girls I like to stick to solids for the coordinating boys pieces. GAP shorts are some of my favorites for my boys and they wear them all summer long.
I like to keep our baskets simple and practical. Three or four items that the kids will get excited about on Easter morning. We do baskets from me and Dave - the bunny brings eggs later in the afternoon.
I think that throwing some practical Spring/Summer items (sidewalk chalk, a bathing suit, bubbles, etc.) gets everyone excited for the new season and while I like to put a few "eastery" things in there (i.e. Reese's eggs) I don't necessarily stick to all things bunny and pastel.
I separated the list into boys and girls, but lots of the items would be great for both genders.

Phew! That was a lot.
I'm hoping that you found a little inspiration! And I'd love to hear what you (or the Easter Bunny!) leaves in your kids baskets every year - I'm always up for a great tip!
Happy Thursday!!!

This reminds me...I should get on this early! Last year I was a bit panicked and running late!
ReplyDeleteYes! Amazon Prime it all the way :)
DeleteI don't have to buy my kids Easter outfits this year...and that makes me breathe a HUGE sigh of relief! Why is coordinating Eater outfits so stressful?!?! It just is!
ReplyDeleteWait! Why not?!?! I'm so confused! hahaha
DeleteGreat ideas, mama! I'm definitely going to be surprising Carter with some Quixels....and I always like to put a swimsuit in the Easter basket! Natives are a great idea too!
ReplyDeleteWhen you do let's get the boys together to "Craft" hahaha
DeleteLove all of those outfit ideas! I've never thought to put a bathing suit in the basket, but I like it!
ReplyDeleteI feel like it's something I'll be buying anyway AND always gets the kids super excited about the upcoming warm weather :)
DeleteLove it! I'm thinking of adding some pastel colored play-doh in mine too
ReplyDeleteLove that idea!
DeleteI saw on instagram earlier where someone filled an open umbrella with goodies instead of a basket! It was so cute and something the kids would prob love and actually could get used throughout the year!
ReplyDeleteCUTE!!!
DeleteAll great ideas and I have to say I love that pastel pink dress for girls from Old Navy....I'm wondering if I could squeeze it on myself to wear as a top ;)
ReplyDeleteHahahaha It's pretty awesome!
DeleteI love that I already bought my daughter and myself the coordinating dresses from old Navy, and the shoes too! So funny! I need to look at these cute bunny books.
ReplyDelete-K
You have FABULOUS taste :) hahaha
DeleteLove your basket ideas!
ReplyDeleteAndrea, you are awesome!!!! This is great!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Rikki! Glad you enjoyed it!
DeleteLove coordinating outfits, always. When I was married, I'd coordinate the 3 of us just to go to a family function. As for Easter, I go overboard(which is a theme with me)
ReplyDeleteLOVE a theme!!! And nothing wrong with some impromptu coordination :)
DeleteI love coordinating outfits! When I was married I'd coordinate the 3 of us just for a casual family function. And as for Easter, I go overboard( like I usually do)
ReplyDeleteLove the coordinating outfits AND the Easter basket ideas. Coordinating outfits for family pictures always about does me in. I am just not a natural at it and it takes me forever. We have maternity pictures coming up in a few weeks for baby #3 and I want some shots of the whole family, so I need to get on it for my outfit search. Thanks for the ideas!
ReplyDeleteso fun! I typically pick Griffin's outfit first (because it usually has the most colors) and then go from there. I try to keep pattern to a minimum for pics and layers always look great in pics. Have fun!!!
DeleteI love your ideas! But every item in the girls section that I clicked on brought me straight to my Pinterest account?
ReplyDeleteI love your ideas! However I tried clicking on all the items in the girls section & it keeps taking me to my Pinterest account ☹️

ReplyDeleteHey! I think you may be "hovering" over the image and the Pinterest P pops up on the pic like you want to pin it. Make sure you're off center a bit and not seeing the letter P on the pic and then click. Let me know if that doesn't work!
DeleteOkay - I just tried it :) When you click on the pic don't click on the Pinterest icon and you should be good!
DeleteI love all the outfits! You really do a great job coordinating your family's clothes! Maybe I will just hire you to find me an Easter dress ;) Happy Thursday!
ReplyDeleteLove your ideas! However, anything I click on in the girls recommendations sends me to Pinterest?
ReplyDeleteHey! Make sure that you click outside of the hovering Pinterest "p" and let me know if it still gives you trouble ;)
DeleteOh my I just noticed my comment posted more than once! So sorry. But on a good note, Thank You!! My Easter items are on the way 😍
ReplyDeleteLoving this post-because I need to think about this now-usually I'm waiting til the last minute for outfits and Easter basket items. I also love to put summer items in their baskets-they're getting too old for chalk now, but sunglasses, a bathing suit, new beach towel or beach hat if they need those. A book, toothbrush, and MINIMAL candy, as their getting older they're appreciating little gift cards to Starbucks or iTunes. :)
ReplyDeleteYou are amazing! Thank you so much for sharing :)
