Layers are important when keeping the kids warm in colder weather. Here are some great, seriously inexpensive ways to fashionably layer up on patterns and pieces for the 12-and-under set.
Layering for the Fall
When layering for volatile weather, the first layers should be the thinnest layer. You want to go from thin to thick. This establishes an organic depth of field in the outfit you are creating and it also helps your kids’ wiggly bodies retain a proper temperature. And, if they get too hot, you can take one layer off and still look good.
With kids, no matter how many layers they have on, comfort is the rule. (Having them all bundled up and yelping in discomfort can result in a seriously unhealthy domestic situation.)
Finally, each layer should be able to stand on its own, serve its own function, and complement the other layers.
