This has not been easy! I'm looking for not one but 2 boy outfits for my boys 2 year pictures...I bought 2 shirts from Boden from the sale and they were just slighty to small and of course they haven't gotten any in the sizes I need in stock and their pictures are this coming Friday. So I'm out already $17 from Boden...Then I ordered 2 outfits for each boy from Gap a week ago and both outfits are to big and of course Gap is out of stock on the next size down...I could scream! I have checked gymboree and the children's place as well but didn't find anything I like. Dressing boys is really not all that fun or easy for pictures and add that they are twins so trying to find not identical outfits but coordinating outfits is not easy at all!

Anyone have any other idea's of places for me to check? Guess you could say they are in 18-24 month clothes...though the shirts from Boden were to small and the 2T clothes from Gap were to big! So as you can tell I'm failing BIG time in picking the right sizes for my boys...

I included a link to the shirt I liked from Boden

Did you look at Janie and Jack? So you want long sleeve polo button down type shirts?

I really like the gingham button up long sleeve shirts...with the sleeves rolled up with shorts. The pictures will be taken outside and it's supposed to be in the high 90's next week of course...so hopefully the photographer is quick with the camera...

Jcrew also has the same type of shirt as boden but again don't have the sizes I need...I found some Ralph lauren shirts like it as well but I like a more casual linen or thin cotton button shirts...

But I'm open to idea's outside of the shirt from Boden...just trying to avoid t-shirts and polo shirts if possible...

ON has some really cute linen-blend s/s shirts that are on clearance right now. http://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=41785&vid=1&pid=812131&scid=812131012 The website has brown and blue ones available; in the store yesterday they were marked down to $8.97, I believe. DS has the blue one and it is the cutest shirt ever.

Good luck!

I second the recommendation for Janie and Jack, too. DS had a shirt from there last summer and it was adorable.

Thanks for all the ideas! I appreciate it! Still haven't decided yet...I know I will likely be running around last minute trying to get their outfits together.
