Dress-The-Baby [Now with working poll]

Peeps,

We’re heading off to a wedding so I dug out Benjamin’s poshest outfits for the big occasion.

Attentive readers will have observed that I am a bit fashionably challenged when it comes to dressing myself [What do you mean I can’t wear t-shirts and yoga pants everyday?] and heaven forbid the baby shows up to a fancy shindig in an outfit picked by his mother.


So Lovelies, this is your chance to cast your vote for Benjamin’s wedding attire. Will you go with the sweet corduroy overalls? The smart boating togs? Or the blinged-out European threads?

You decide*. 



The Options:

A. Fine linen shirt imported from France, denim from the House of Burberry, and [fake] suede loafers. My Dears, I’ll have the Dom Perignon, please. 

B. A summer-weight onsie that would look right at home upon the polo fields or this summer’s World Cup race in San Francisco. Paired with navy kicks and a matching boater hat (not shown).

C. Perhaps most suitable for the wedding, given that it’s in Alaska, these sweet overalls are double-lined for warmth but manage to maintain a respectable aura, especially as they’re worn with a nice striped button down shirt and hilariously cute slip-on loafers. 

D. The shindig is occurring on a golf course so this checked overall number might be just the ticket. Birdie! A white onsie and brown shoes complete the ensemble. 

E. In a nod to the baby’s Alaskan heritage, this Pacific Northwest option sports a moose on the shirt’s pocket. Comfortable brown pants match the subtle check pattern. Brown sandals accompany the outfit. 






*Given that the wedding is in Alaska, the location necessitates that the final selection be weather-appropriate.
