I'm crazy

I just bought these shorts for Ryker because I love them and they were on Hautelook for sale for 10 dollars. Of course, I paid 8 dollars for shipping. I would never pay 18 dollars for these in the store, but I couldn't resist shorts on sale from 40 dollars. Something is messed up in my head.

They are cute though.

  • They remind me of a ska bumblebee, which we actually have a lot of here.

  • Wow, those are quite the pair of shorts.

  • They are adorable! 

    I just spent $75 on baby sun/swim gear for Miles.  Goofy hats with flaps in the back to cover his neck, swim trunks, sun protection shirts.  I'll be damned if this kid's gonna get a sunburn in Aruba.

  • i am trying to google ska bumblebee since I was not sure what it is, but you are right.

    how well do those sun protection things work? I am thinking of getting some for our Florida vacation

  • Actually, I think they are pretty cute.  Kid's clothes are crazy expensive.  $18 really isn't that far off of normal.  Now for $40, I would side-eye.

  • Cute!  I spend way too much money on Ian's clothes.

    The sun protection shirts work really well.

  • holyshits, it's your money, do what you want with it,  but you paid $18 for those?!?!?!

    i must be a cheap ass, because I rarely pay more than $10 for any one article of clothing for N. Seeing as he wears it for approximately 2.7 secs before -

     a.) he slobbers something down the front b.) outgrows it.

    But yeah, those shorts certainly are....colorful.

  • I think they're cute.

    Hautelook has possibly the ugliest shoes ever today.  If I could PIP, I would mock the old lady bowling/tap/orthopedic shoes.  I don't get them at all.

  • I'm with pink.

    That's the problem with all of those sites - zuily, babysteals, babyhalfoff, etc etc.  I find something cute, seems like a good deal, but then tack on the shipping and it's suddenly not worth it.

  • I don't buy anything for the kiddo that's not on sale EXCEPT for shoes. I have a sickness. Seriously. I just bought him black loafers to go with the suit that he won't even be able to wear for another month or two. 
    image
  • eh, i buy clothes on sale all the time. I bought myself jeans for 2 dollars last month. I think it all evens out.
  • they are . . . breathtaking.

    good thing R is cute and can rock any outfit like a star.

    I've had a few people recommend them to me, but haven't yet tried them.  Aruba will be our experiment.

    These = fug.  The only way I'd ever wear them is if I saw them on VB's blog.

  • Dear goodness, those shoes are fug

  • I'm getting a pair in gold and another in silver.

  • I don't think Ryker's shorts are ugly, per se, but you may be dooming him to a future hanging with Travis and the other loadies on the grassy knoll.

  • My boy is wearing Garanimals today. So la di da.
    image Ready to rumble.
  • I'm in Pink's shopping cart today. Though I must say that I'm glad that clothes now last at least an entire season.

    Yes, but you're from Portland.

  • And now I'm debating over whether or not Miles needs a pair of Keen sandals.  Probably not because he can't walk, but you never know.

    Ian has tiny Tevas.  I would have bought him Keens, but the smallest size I can find is 4 and he's a size 3.

    Exactly.  These shoes are the fanciest things I've ever seen.

  • Will gets sale clothes. Usually when I have a coupon so the sale price is even cheaper. He also wears hammidowns. I'm cheap.

  • I would spend $18 on shorts, but someone would have to pay me $18 to take those.  They are hideous.

    Is it weird that I would totally send LOADS of hammidown clothes/shoes to CNers if they wanted them (with or without a BBJ style sob story)? They're all sorted in rubbermaid totes by size in my attic, where they'll clearly stay otherwise.

    I would do the same.
