Christmas Outfit for Size 5 Boy

My biggest pet peeve is that boys clothing starts to look just like their Dad's at size 2T! Why can't boys have nice Christmas and Easter clothing also? I know that I should have started looking before Halloween and bought by then - but with all our family here for T'giving, I just started! I'm trying to find a cute Christmas outfit size 5 for my little boy. NOT a suit - but a Christmas sweater or vest or something like that! Any ideas, or websites you can direct me to. I love the Greendog stuff at Macy's but it is all sold out:(

Thanks! C.

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

I had never heard of Janie and Jack so I looked online! Super, super cute boy clothes but expensive! So, I looked for an outlet store and it turns out they have one at Sawgrass Mills Mall - which is about 5 miles from my house! Major, major happy dance. We got the cutest "Nutcracker" shirt and khaki's with little nutcrackers embroidered on them along with matching nutcracker socks! I really couldn't have been more pleased and the prices were about 70% off the regular price! The really nice ladies in the store told me that I will be able to buy online through size 12. Happy days are here again!!! Merry Christmas to ALL and thank you!

Check out some of your local children's clothing shops - they have cute holiday appliquéd or smocked boys outfits that definitely don't scream "DAD"! Gymboree also usually has a few cute Christmas sweaters that don't look too grown up as well.

I'm in the same boat with my 4 year old son. I hate suits on little boys. It looks wrong and uncomfortable on a kid. Why rush being forced into that? ;)

The Children's Place or Gymboree can be put together so cutely! My friend just did the greatest pictures of her 9 and 6 yr olds with TCP clothes.

We got ours a pair of slacks, shirt, vest, and tie at Walmart. We got him a sweater with a pair of corduroy pants at Sam's club.

I know that feeling. Like some people have mentioned here Wal-Mart around this time has cute sets which include pants shirt & vest. The other option I can suggest to you is buying separate things that you like from other stores & create your own put together outfit. This year I got my boys nice argyle sweaters from The Childrens Place, & nice fitting black corduroys from Old Navy. I also got them black Timberland leather dress shoes from Amazon.com for a nice price. So now they have a outfit for Christmas pictures, Christmas day & after the holidays.
