Hi all,I really like hanna playdress/daydress with leggings online, but it is quite expensive.I am thinking of ordering it with the current coupon code....but really is the dress + legging combo worth 54$(before discount)?????

I would say no, but that's my JMHO. I only purchase the playdresses when they are on sale and THEN have a 20% coupon code. I got 4 different ones this past spring for about $20 (before coupon code). The current 2 colors (red/white and red/pink) will likely go on sale when the Fall playdress styles come out.

I have never purchased the matching leggings. I just use solid colored leggings in complimentary colors from Gymboree.

I have a couple for my girls and yes i think they have been worth it, if you like a dress that looks good but is suitable for play.

I wanted them because most of the dresses i found were "pretty" dress up pretty not a pretty dress but suitable to play in LOL..if any of that made sense :o

They are a very soft and stretchy material, quite comfy according to my dd's.

I'd try asking at the layette board on babybargains alot of hanna shoppers there! ;)

Pamela if you want 'comfy' dresses that can be played in and are not as expensive as Hanna look at Land's End. Here are some examples from last winter:

I do try to buy them on sale, but I love the look. IMHP, the matching leggings make the dress (and also the coordinating socks...), although I have paired them with solid leggings and that really does look very cute too.

I also really like the Lands End dresses, but I think the Hanna quality is vastly superior. That being said, I buy DD 2 Hanna dresses per size, and we have lots more LE dresses.

HTH,

I can't say enough good things about these dresses--my dd wears hers at least once a week. I usually order one set full price (with code), then wait for sales or relatives to hopefully get another set. I've realized that actually, getting them full price is more of a bargain than waiting for a sale b/c she wears them so much that the "cost per wearing" ends up being lower. Also, byt the time they go on sale, lots of colors/sizes are sold out.

I do buy the matching leggings as well because I like the look. Also, if you are interested in reselling them, I've noticed that the percentage you can recoup on eBay is MUCH higher if you have the matching leggings. I care more about the leggings in the winter than summer b/c I think tights are much less comfortable.

Good luck.

Some people get them with catalogs. Whenever someone finds one it is posted in the Baby Reality Layette Forum. Currently there is a code 31H20 for 20% off good through November 11th.
